Conveying an unprecedented story, All of Us Are Dead imparts a greater perspective on characters and more formidable zombies.
All of Us Are Dead follows isolated students as they wait for rescue at a school where the zombie virus’s rapid spread drives them to struggle for survival.
Recounting the intense encounter between Korean high school students and K-Zombies, director Lee Jae Gyu and writer Cheon Seong Il foretell the upgraded fun by illustrating more lively characters. Both creators approach the anticipated work by expanding the story with new settings.
In particular, director Lee devoted special attention to the students’ vibrant personalities and youthful features.
“The story that takes place in a school with immature children might be different from a typical zombie movie.”
Subsequently, it was critical for the children’s ensemble to work together to overcome the crisis.
Likewise, he formed “a relationship with a different feeling by taking a motif from the original, but using slightly different colors for specific characters.”
Applying the learnings from a father’s firefighter emergency manual gives off a character with an excellent coping mechanism. Notably, Nam-ra’s sense of true friendship and growing warmth through the zombie apocalypse reinforces Suhyeok’s newfound optimism.
Appearances of New Characters and Stories Expanding Outside of School
Concerning adults and children making risky decisions in dire situations, director Lee addresses the story as he deploys new characters to expand the story outside the school.
Along with the police officers who learn the truth about the virus, numerous people emerge, including firefighters, lawmakers, soldiers, and parents, rushing to their children’s schools to protect them.
Unlike students, who demonstrate courage in saving their friends, even in life-or-death circumstances, and do not lose their friendship or love in despair, adults struggle with countless possibilities.
The difference between people who make distinct choices within and outside of school elicits a range of feelings and thoughts.
The Emergence of the Deadly Virus and the Birth of a More Powerful, Faster, and Stronger Zombie
The origin of the virus that was responsible for all the disasters has also shifted. In the original work, Cheon Seong Il, who “wants to create the origin of zombies,” adapted the zombie from an undiscovered virus assumed to have originated in the East Sea as “the beings we created.”
Bringing a sense of reality, it gives the shocking setting of a zombie appearing at a school. He continued, “If the source of a disaster or disaster is us, wouldn’t we also have the strength to overcome it?”
Moreover, it is about individuals encountering a world they have never seen before, overcoming the problem in schools and cities secluded from the zombie apocalypse.
Besides that, it’s the stronger, quicker, and more vibrant zombies that add to the drama’s suspense in a lush atmosphere. He also remarked, “I thought that if zombies were defined as a new species, there would be various differentiation within them.”
Above all, he embraced the premise that each infected person exhibits unique symptoms.
That is why he produced hitherto unseen zombies. Individuals who are not fully infected or who are capable of turning into zombies may exhibit ideas, rationality, and malice, advancing the plot to a new phase. Is this a new threat?
Witness the upcoming K-Zombie craze, All of Us Are Dead, which will premiere exclusively on Netflix on January 28.
