I’m a big fan of Day of the Dead (1985)
On the surface, it’s a bunker zombie movie. But like truly good zombie movies, it’s not about the zombies. It’s more about humanity’s response to existential dread and how groups can fail to cooperate with each other.
The movie’s been remade a few times, but imo the original is the most thought provoking.
Whenever I pick up my knife my brain says, “what if I just stick this into my belly?”
They say your brain imagines these scenarios so that you can try to avoid them, but the more you learn about trying to wrangle your brain the more I think the brain is just a dick sometimes.
