RESEARCH INTO THE SAME GENRE

WORLD WAR Z
PLOT: Former UN employee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) and his wife and two daughters enjoy a nice family breakfast. Gerry tells his youngest daughter he has quit his job to spend more time with his family. He sees on the telly some news about strife and talk of martial law. When sat in traffic taking his daughters to school, riot begins to arise in the city as hordes of zombies begin to attack and infect people. These zombies move extremely fast and when they bite someone the survivor turns rapidly.
Gerry and his family survive the attack and find themselves safe on a US navy aircraft carrier in the middle of the ocean run by the UN. Deputy Secretary-General Thierry Umotoni asks his former employee Gerry to go with a group of soldiers and a scientists to go back to land to find a cure for the outbreak. Whilst gerry fights against zombies he realises that some people seem to be immune to the zombies almost as if they are one of them. Whilst travelling to CDC lab, the plane becomes infected with zombies which causes the plane to crash however, Gerry and his companion manage to survive.

In the CDC lab, Gerry believes that if you are ill or infected with another disease you are camouflaged to the zombies.  One half of the lab is safe where as the other half is infested with 'zeke' (zombies). He walks through to the other side of the lab and into a room full of deadly pathogens. when he takes as much as he needs he realises he can not escape as the zombies have crowded him, so he decides to inject himself with a deadly pathogen and test to see if his hypothesis works. Luckily he was correct and he manages to escape freely into the other half of the hospital. The film ends with Gerry reuniting with his family. We also see helicopters dropping packages down to land containing the injections used to become camouflaged from zombies.



SIMILARITIES: Similarities between our film and World War Z is that our main character will be retired from a very masculine job, as he needs to have that sort of background to be able to fight against a race of zombies. Also like World War Z, our character will be very caring towards his family however in ours the only family our character has left is his brother.
