#Alive (Film) (Spoilers)

Episodes: None as it is a film.

Streamer: Netflix

Trailer:

 Plot: A gamer becomes a survivalist during an Zombie Epidemic sweeping Korea. Using his gaming skills he developed over the years along with his tech savvy and an zombie killer of a neighbour.

Joon Woo is a gamer who lived with his parents (like me but without the gamer aspect...although i do play Fortnite on the Switch.) During a game with his team the pandemic spreads through out Korea where he witnesses (as seen in the trailer which literally the introduction to the film.) a teenaged girl who was unaware that she contracted the disease had devoured her mother after entrapping her. In order to survive he has to stay indoors (like everyone in 2020 or is currently doing or has done) so he under the instruction of the TV station sent a selfie via Instagram with his home address. After about forty days he goes in search of supplies in his building. I found this rather amateurish as I would have scouted the area and listened out for the zombies whilst marking the doors of which has been raided and such.) Due to his tech intellect he managed to hear his families last dying words via his voicemail on his IPhone. Due to the long days and onslaught of depression Joon decides to end it all and become Zombie chow via noose but luckily his neighbour sees him and saves him via a food package that was propelled to his apartment via rope system.

Yoo Bin is the neighbour who is mentioned above and unlike our male protoginist this amazing woman whose former occupation is unknown as i completely forgot what she said or it was not mentione is a Zombie Killer (Buffy Edition) and an incredible survivalist. She knows how to make a quick escape from her home via absailing which makes gamer boy look like a noob.

Hyun Wook was the infected neighbour who we watch before not only our eyes but also Joons as he almost infects and kills Joon. The actor is obviously a dancer as his transformation looks like he knows how to do a bit of street dance. 

Masked Man was friendly at first as he saved out heroes from zombies. He then befriends them soon after which is a ruse as he drugs them both and sends Yoo to his wifes room where she is used as food for the wife but Joon then swaps Joon for the husband so all ends well for the married couple as they are no longer living. This is due to the husband being devoured by his wife.

Favorite Scenes

1. Absailer Girl

Yo bin makes her escape via absailing down from her balcony. I really can not put it into words so heres a link:

(The rope is attached to the crack in the door.)

2. Zombie Pile up

As Joon is looking for food and other gear he escapes a onslaught of Zombies who were out and about. The trapped him. Zombies down the hall. Zombies up the hall. He calls for the lift and hears Zombies in the lift and so he runs up the stairs that were next to the lift. The camera stays in the hall to show the zombies pile up. I found this funny.

3. Infected Tenant's Transformation

As I said i enjoyed this scene as the actor was showing some dance moves whilst becoming Zombified.

Personal Opinion

It was excitng and thrilling. It was not as Scary as I thought. It was fun at times but it reminded me of the world in its current state. I am curious as to what the game Joon was playing but then again i think it was of Call of Duty so i shall not be playing it...even though i play Fortnite. (Switch) Ifound the location for the complex of flats very well sought out and was used very well.
