(Research) Individual Research film #1 - Zombieland

Here is an example of what you should do for research:


I watched the trailer and a few film clips from the film 'Zombieland'.



I learnt the following things:

  • It is common there is a wide spread virus threatening the leftover humans
  • Settings are often abandoned 
  • Realistic and bloody costume and make up is imperative for it to be gory/scary
  • There's often a main hero who is a male but the representation of gender can vary as the young girls with guns show they are strong survivors 
Humans kill zombies to save themselves, often with weapons 
Chase sequences which create a lot of tension

Girls with guns - subverting stereotypes about girls

Anyone can be a zombie, this also added to the humour in the film
