Warm Bodies is an extremely thrilling action love story that
takes place during a zombie apocalypse. This movie caught my attention because
not only is it from a zombie’s point of view, but because the zombies can speak.
The setting takes place in an abandoned airport where zombies roam.
“R” is the main character. A man around the age of his late
teen years. He is accompanied by several other zombie “Friends” when he
witnesses the mayhem that Julie and her crew are creating when they are set out
on a mission by her father to destroy the zombies. And that is when R falls in love.
Julie is baffled when she finds that R is attracted to her.
She threatens to kill him, but when he makes a sincere gesture of friendship,
she allows him to take her away to his “home” (Really an abandoned airplane.)
Over the course of the time, Julie allows R to take care of
her and assist her with avoiding the zombies.
Now here’s the catch: Julie’s father is the head of the
military command which is in charge at the time, and is skeptical of whether or
not R is safe around Julie when she reveals how he is changing both emotionally
and physically.
The situation is resolved in the end when Julie and R flee
and her military powered father and his assembly end up chasing after them
both. They are forced to come face-to-face with her father. When R is exposed
for who he really is, Julie’s father gives in, and eventually allows the
zombies and humans to live together in peace.
