¿Qué es los más emocionantes en los Zombis?

Así como lo mencioné, a mi parecer los zombis no atemorizan significativamente, sin embargo, debe existir algunas emociones que los espectadores deben sentir por estos muertos vivientes, después de todo, son todo un éxito en nuestra cultura.

En lo particular pienso que lo emocionante no es ver aun zombi, sino a toda una horda, montones de muertos que se comen todo a su paso, esto es lo realmente efectivo porque llega a una parte instintiva del cerebro. Algunos habrán escuchado en alguna ocasión la "reacción de lucha o huida", esta es una reacción natural en animales y humanos que se produce cuando un peligro inminente está poniendo en riesgo la vida y las alternativas normalmente son escasas, eso activa al cerebro a para preparar al cuerpo para la lucha o una veloz huida.

Si pensamos por un momento sobre una horda de zombis, estar atrapado en un tren, agregando que el protagonista es un padre con una niña, en donde se incluye a una mujer embarazada posteriormente, obtenemos un coctel emocional interesante por la supervivencia de ambas (y quizás el padre), esto juega con nuestro cerebro al cual no le gusta estar encerrado y sin opciones de escape, es un estrés natural que las películas siempre intentan enfocar para que el filme transmita emociones a sus espectadores.

Moral y Supervivencia

Si hablamos de instinto implícito en nuestra naturaleza, debemos hablar en ese poderoso instinto de supervivencia, un instinto que lleva al cerebro a tomar decisiones que moralmente no son bien vistas por la sociedad, de hecho, este filme se enfoca en esa moralidad de las personas ante una situación de estrés como la de "lucha o huida" provocada por los zombis, esto le otorga al filme más emociones y un toque de realidad con respecto a nuestra propia naturaleza y sociedad, todos hemos escuchado alguna vez el dicho que dice "sálvese quien pueda", refiriéndose a ese instinto y la supremacía del más fuerte o más astuto.

Este filme me agrada porque nos otorga ese mensaje sobre la moral, en contraste con un apocalipsis zombi, hay escenas donde podemos observar la realidad de una sociedad atemorizada, dejándose llevar por el miedo a ser comido, en donde pueden cometer actos que atentan contra la supervivencia de otras personas, un individualismo que lleva a la ilusión de aumentar las probabilidades de supervivencia.

¿Dejaríamos atrás a una niña o una mujer embarazada?, quizás desde la comodidad de nuestra silla podamos responder muy fácilmente, sin embargo, nuestra naturaleza puede ser un obstáculo para ello. Aunque nos parezca obvio para muchas personas, quizás no lo es tanto, jugaría un papel fundamental el contacto o el vínculo entre personas.

Este enfoque sobre la moral es muy bueno en el filme, funciona al hacernos sentir enojo o desprecio por algunas personas, sin embargo, en el fondo sabemos que nuestra en nuestra sociedad existen personas egoístas que se comportarían igual ante una situación grave de supervivencia.

Conclusiones

Desde mi perspectiva, esta es una buena película de zombis, bastante dinámica y emocionalmente significativa, es de esas películas en que sientes que todo está perdido, sin embargo, un buen enfoque es ese puñado de personajes que solo desean sobrevivir a costas de utilizar a otras personas como cebo, en pocas palabras, encarrilar Train to Busan con estos conceptos hace que sea una película sin efectos especiales muy sorprendentes, pero que nos regalan un buen momento de entretenimiento junto a muchos zombis.

Es un filme que recomiendo ver en esta época de terror, tengo entendido que hay una secuela, pero no he tenido la oportunidad de verla, esta historia de Train to Busan me gustó y siento el miedo de que su secuela haga derrumbar el buen trabajo hecho en esta primera película.

Train to Busan

[English Version]

Hello friends of cinema, this time I want to enter the Halloween contest proposed by the Movies & Tv Shows community, today I bring you a little bit of terror and blood, about one of the subjects that so many people are passionate about (including me), nothing more and nothing less than zombies, those living dead that have captured so many eyes on the big screen and although we can mention many western productions, this is of South Korean origin, perhaps many already know it because its premiere was in 2016 and has crowded both TV channels and streaming services for many years, I'm talking about Train to Busan.

This is a film where we will observe familiar faces, which at that time did not have as much renown as now, a clear example is Ma Dong-seok, who we saw him as a very good character in Marvel, specifically Eternals, in addition, we have Gong Yoo, who has been in the Squid Game or productions like sea of tranquility, although these actors already had an important name in Asia, at least in my case I knew them along with their good acting work in recent years.

Zombie Movie

When writing about this film, I immediately remembered a review I did some time ago about World War Z, where I explained that from my point of view, it produced the most terrifying and deadly virus in the whole film industry, a virus similar to Train to Busan, where the time between infection and being a biting undead is very short, Moreover, the bodies of these zombies resist falls, blows and seem to have a great resistance and speed when running, without a doubt they are similar types of zombies, another characteristic that the zombies of both films share is that they do not eat their victims, they only infect them and then look for another prey, only to nibble it for a while and leave again.

I have to say that I like zombie stories, although they don't generally scare me much, although they do play to a sense of perception in the viewers that definitely influences these types of films. From my point of view there is not much terror when we talk about zombies, but other fears implicit in our nature appear in our minds and this film takes advantage of those natural fears to capture and keep our attention on the screen.

One of the factors that this film tends to take advantage of is in its title, a train, imagining a horde of zombies in a confined space without much option of escape is a factor that we will definitely keep in mind during the film, you can only run between carriages in the small corridor that divides the seats, this sensation can be perceptively claustrophobic at times.

What's the most exciting thing about Zombies?

As I mentioned, in my opinion zombies are not significantly scary, however, there must be some emotions that viewers should feel for these undead, after all, they are a hit in our culture.

In particular, I think that the thrill is not to see a zombie, but a whole horde, lots of dead people eating everything in their path, this is what is really effective because it reaches an instinctive part of the brain. Some of you may have heard of the "fight or flight reaction", this is a natural reaction in animals and humans that occurs when imminent danger is life threatening and alternatives are usually few and far between, it activates the brain to prepare the body for fight or flight.

If we think for a moment about a horde of zombies, being trapped on a train, adding that the protagonist is a father with a child, where a pregnant woman is included later, we get an interesting emotional cocktail for the survival of both (and perhaps the father), this plays with our brain which does not like to be locked up and without escape options, it is a natural stress that films always try to focus on so that the film transmits emotions to its viewers.

Morality and Survival

If we talk about instinct implicit in our nature, we must talk about that powerful instinct of survival, an instinct that leads the brain to make decisions that morally are not well seen by society, in fact, this film focuses on the morality of people in a stressful situation such as "fight or flight" caused by zombies, This gives the film more emotions and a touch of reality with respect to our own nature and society, we have all heard the saying "every man for himself", referring to that instinct and the supremacy of the strongest or most cunning.

I like this film because it gives us that message about morality, in contrast to a zombie apocalypse, there are scenes where we can observe the reality of a society in fear, driven by the fear of being eaten, where they can commit acts that threaten the survival of other people, an individualism that leads to the illusion of increasing the chances of survival.

Would we leave a child or a pregnant woman behind, perhaps from the comfort of our chair we can answer very easily, but our nature can be an obstacle to this. Although it may seem obvious to many people, perhaps it is not so obvious, contact or bonding between people would play a key role.

This approach to morality is very good in the film, it works by making us feel anger or contempt for some people, yet deep down we know that in our society there are selfish people who would behave the same way in a serious survival situation.

Conclusions

From my perspective, this is a good zombie film, quite dynamic and emotionally significant, it is one of those films where you feel that all is lost, however, a good approach is that handful of characters who only want to survive at the expense of using other people as bait, in short, Train to Busan with these concepts makes it a film without very surprising special effects, but that give us a good time of entertainment with many zombies.

It is a film that I recommend to see in this time of terror, I understand that there is a sequel, but I have not had the opportunity to see it, I liked this story of Train to Busan and I feel the fear that its sequel will bring down the good work done in this first film.
