Terminator salvation arnold schwarzenegger part 1

West is killed by an infected soldier who is named Mailer, and the trio escape. After another twenty-eight days, the Infected are seen dying of starvation. Selena, Hannah, and Jim, who is recovering from his injuries, have taken refuge in a remote cottage. They are able to signal a passing aircraft. On the DVD commentary, Boyle and Garland frequently call it a post apocalyptic, horror and zombie film, commenting on scenes that were specific references to George A. Romero s original Dead trilogy. However, during the initial marketing of the film Boyle did try to distance the film from such labels. The films score was composed by John Murphy and was released in a score/song compilation in 200 Much of the soundtrack, however, is based on a heavily edited version of the song East Hastings by the post-rock band Godspeed You! Black Emperor. The track is excluded from the soundtrack, due to group ethics. 28 Days Later is usually included in the zombie genre. However, the Infected portrayed within the film fit only certain parts of the traditional zombie archetype. While zombies are generally slow, unintelligent, and hungry for human flesh, and are almost universally undead, the Infected are merely living human beings overcome with senseless rage brought on by the highly infectious Rage virus. They can be killed just as any human can and possess no supernatural abilities or inhuman strengths. At the same time, the Infected show many zombie characteristics: a bite-transmitted condition that results in the affected individuals loss of personality, decrease in cognitive function problems with conventional door operation, aggressive pursuit of the uninfected, and the urge to spread the condition further all form part of the classic zombie film trope. George Romeros 1973 film The Crazies dealt with a small town whose citizens were sent into homicidal rage by a highly infectious, government-created pathogen. The first alternate ending is fully filmed. In this alternate ending, Jim is mortally wounded after escaping from the soldiers. Selena and Hannah rush Jim to a local hospital in a futile attempt to save his life. After Jim dies, the two women leave his body at the hospital; this completes an eerie circle for Jim, who began and ended the film alone in a deserted hospital. This ending closes with Selena and Hannah walking down the hospital corridor, still dressed in their red gowns and armed with guns, as the operating room doors slowly close and conceal them from view. This ending was included in the first cut of the film and was tested in theatres with preview audiences. It was ultimately rejected for being too bleak, and also because test audiences misinterpreted the endings intended mood. Garland and Boyle meant for Selena and Hannahs exit from the hospital to imply survival, whereas audiences felt that the women were walking into certain death. The return to hospital ending was added in the theatrical release of the film beginning on July 25, 200 It was placed after the credits and prefaced with the words But what if. On the DVD commentary, Garland and Boyle refer to this alternate ending as their personally preferred end to the film, calling it the true ending. An unpolished alternate ending is included on the DVD, which is very similar to the original coda scene of potential rescue from the air. This time, however, Jim is not present. The second alternate ending was not filmed and is presented as a series of storyboards and voiceovers. The story picks up at the point where Frank is infected at the military roadblock near Manchester. This time, the sub-plot involving the soldiers does not take place. In a radical turn, Jim, Selena, and Hannah take Frank to a local research complex, where the virus was developed. Their goal is to attempt to find the cure for the virus, which the radio broadcast had suggested was nearby. A short time after arriving at the research complex, Jim and Selena discover a man who has locked himself in one of the rooms with enough food and water to survive for another week. After asking if he had sent the radio broadcast, the man replies that the soldiers back at the blockade had sent the broadcast, but they have already died. He refuses to talk to them any further. Jim attempts to get the man to sympathize with them by telling the man his lifes story, which is related through various clips of Jim recounting trivial details about his life. In desperation, Jim brings Hannah outside the room and explains their situation to the man. In the end, the man tells them that the cure is a complete blood transfusion. Jim sacrifices himself so that Frank can live.
