Some people say, ’ Do not judge a book by its cover’, and that is why there are instances where a person can’t help it. I was sure of the fact that I wouldn’t like the movie called Die Alone, its name says a lot already, literally translates to me as ‘I am Going to Die Alone’ and it happens to be a zombie apocalypse movie as well. As much as a boring idea it was, I still was not anticipating to be amazed. While watching the movie ‘Die Alone’, slowly I got to know that it was not a dull cliche. But when I pressed on the play button, after only One minutes I was already on the edge of my seat. It’s understandable that a twist awaited in the plot, which I knew of in advance, but it occurred far early on than expected. Die Alone is not just another film that came out during the time when ‘The Walking Dead’ first arrived. It still includes Carrie-Anne Moss and Douglas Smith as the protagonists, but instead of a simple storyline and a cast, it is completely different in that aspect. From the collection of multi-millionaire films that have already been assembled throughout the course of this year, Die Alone is more so high on the list. The suspense romance film with stunning practical effects has kept every cinephile’s wildest desire intact. If in the broader spectrum of filmmaking watching If Die Alone leaves a very bitter taste in Millie’s mouth then probably that’s okay for die-hard horror fanatics that are in anticipate for variety.
This film is definitely worth your attention.
Well, let’s take a deeper look; imagine being in a post-apocalyptic universe where the Dead have taken over the landscape, and society is nothing but an overgrown yard turned into mud. For me am seeing this from the view of Ethan (Smith), one amongst many who seems to oblivious to catastrophic events unfolding around him. The delimitation has a series of flashbacks where it demonstrates how the virus that originated between the plants managed to infiltrate the human race. Emma, who plays the protagonist’s girlfriend in the film, is a doctor in a cancer hospital appearing in several movie scenes. Constantly, new patients form a line, and the combination of this setting, and governmental messages to the population to stay home compels both of them to conclude that it’s the Greatest time to pack up and leave for a safer place. But in the process have a car road accident while attempting to escape. Accosted with the reality, he still remembers how and where the car accident took place; the people in the car with him, or even Emma. He doesn’t remember where Emmas’ parents went looking for her, and even where he had locked himself away for years; it is still all a mystery.
He believes it’s December 18 every time he wakes up, and due to his amnesia, he treats every day as the first day of the month and all the rest as wiped out. While he believes Emma is gone, and yes, there is a global pandemic, the other portions of reality have taken a turn for the worse that he has to relearn over the span of days. To sum it up, it’s a mixture of 50 First Dates and Night of the Living Dead.
Survival in apocalyptic times is bound to be tough, especially if one has no knowledge of how it all started. For Ethan, things are a bit different as he is raised by his survivalist guardian, Mae Moss, who lives in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by nature’s beauty. Even though the net and generator helped her survive and fish, Mae was depressed and lonely, which is why she decided to adopt Ethan. They actually need to be more careful and harder to get than the others, but they do require one another’s assistance. Mae has been left alone with no one to share things with and Ethan is desperate for a guardian. The cautiousness that sets in, however, is the fact that they are not supposed to have each other, so things are too simple. Mae is willing to help the confused Ethan find Emma, however, both Mae and Ethan do not trust each other at all. Convincing Him them would work?: One of them is a current threat which is reliable.
In any case, derived from this personal experience, these creatures are films in real life, which in one way or another, need a problem to solve, and the directors Andrei Khrzhanovsky, Pascal Ferran, and Andrei Zvyagintsev with the idea of the body of a zombie and the body of a human being especially were able to present both feeling and tension dramatically.
There are times when you just want to kick back and enjoy a Zombieland or a Return of the Living Dead movie while knowing fully well what to expect from the others. In Die Alone, we discover that some zombies can arise from a viral disease originating from plants. Just think about a lumbering character with a tree growing out of its head an infected face and algae-coated zombies. Some of the more sickly and uniquely designed zombies that inhabit the world of Die Alone will certainly be appreciated even by the most diehard fans of Resident Evil and The Last of Us. Much better, however, was how everything turned out as it had some practical effects instead of only computer graphics. Not only in the design do these zombies differ but also in their actions and movements. there is no doubt that being human-eating animals is one aspect of the latter but there is a worse view of a zombie slumped against a tree looking like it has fainted, or as in Evolution of the World, existing are different zombies consisting of different evolutionary developed stages.
The main weakness of Die Alone in terms of its monsters is that they are barely showcased. Ethan’s and Emma’s character tokens in Die Alone Ethan Douglas Smith E; and Emma Kimberly Sue Murray E; are presented through the imagination to cut costs and remain in a boisterous dormÂ
The game loses the atmosphere and then why bother you ask when your characters are turning and sitting in a bubble without any visceral exposure to the risk of being mauled by the zombies? Without a plot structure, it does not matter how great all those bloodsplats and creatures looking formidable are, and that is where the movie Die Alone does better than the rest of the films. In this case, or rather, when it was then only Ethan and Mae who agreed to bear arms were present and I can tell you that Douglas Smith together with Carrie-Anne Moss not only enthralled with the slow and gradual chemistry their characters built but also the vulnerabilities they possess. Mae has already decided, after all, that this will calm the young man down and keep him from wishing that the next time he wakes up, he will not want to forget Mae, for then he will be able to remember with no regret what he did.
The picture Die Alone is a strong and new addition, to what can only be classified as the most gruesome subgenre, the zombie movie. It’s usually mankind himself who poses a danger to the majority, and this much settles Die Alone as well. Frank Grillo’s character of Kai does not take any active part in the film until the last act of the movie. He is relatively less visible but through his critical entry, the tortuous currents of turnovers on the astonished side begin. Still, this time around, it is in a zombie film.
Above all else, Die Alone is an everlasting love story. But, for Ethan, there is something he just cannot let go of. And that someone is Emma. While pursuing the love of his life, he gets approached by her in ways that make no sense throughout the course of the Story, most of which, are in the form of flashbacks. This brings about what I term an astonishing moment. The whole experience of being totally clueless about a series of events and then being surprised by an event is amusing, not the reverse. Die Alone is a title that seems to be a complete mismatch at first but all that gets sorted out in the movie over time background. That said, this is not going to be your typical gut-wrenching, spine-chilling, heart-stopping bloody zombie film that you are used to but the pacing issues of the second act are somewhat calmed down as the clones begin to concentrate on the exercise in reach at the potential climax. But yes, if you are the kind of viewer who would want to experience a different kind of story that would allow you to care for it, then deep down the story of Die Alone is a story you are seeking.
