Anyone else?


Recently I've been reading a lot further into mvies... I don't know if it's because I"m becomming more emotional or if it's just that I'm reading way too far into them but anyway, when I watch this movie, it gives me a sense of being depressed and I almost want to cry. (Eyes tearing and all) but it also gives me a sense of harmony.

It's mainly because the girls become so happy only to look forward to dieing and they know it's comming so you'd wonder why they aren't atleast freaking out. BUt the NDH probably has a bit to do with this. And also, the speech given from Eiko at the end of the movie and the Drew obsessed girls are lying on the floor mouthing everything that she says really gets to me. But anyway, this movie to me seems to have a very serious undertone and that's what I think makes it good.... But I don't know about anyone else.

No, I think they're on to something. The film was a fairly amusing, entertaining (though admittedly low-budget & cheesy) tongue-in-cheek zombie flick (a do-it-yourself home zombie killing kit titled "Bruce Campbell's Right Hand"? Hysterical!), but with Eiko's speech at the end things got serious and pretty emotional. I took her speech to mean, among other things, that people - presumably the Japanese people - shouldn't take their daughters (or sisters) for granted, but show them how much that they love and appreciate them. SPOILERS: Remember, the doctor did state that the Stacies were driven by "love". And in the end we find out that the Stacies finally being able to co-exist with regular humans, even becoming the mothers to the "final" evolution of mankind, which I suppose could be interpreted as the males finally accepting them and giving them the love that they craved.

I don't know what it was about this movie but it really got to me, too. This is one of the few movies that I can't necessarily recommend to anyone else but I love it nonetheless. Honestly, I think that it's that song that they keep playing during these emotionally poignant moments. Without that song I don't think that it would have been quite as much.

Well atleast I know I'm not the only one.... I thought I was crazy when after the movie all I had to say was "SAD FACE!"
