I vibe with this theory and think it applies perfectly to the movie, but the book explains zombiesm as a supernatural undeath by despair situation, the apocalypse was caused by a large percent of the human race hitting emotional rock bottom and coming under the influence of some dark force released by enough humans giving up, bonies are zombies that gave up on even the smallest fragments of their humanity.

The book places more emphasis on the “infection” being an allegory for *very* deep depression. Once you see it in that framework it makes more sense that R’s journey is one of psychological recovery more than falling in love (though it’s definitely part of it) He is quite literally learning to live again and he does it with the love and support of a network of friends. It’s honestly a great read and R’s inner monologues are beautifully written. I wish they hadn’t tried to make it a YA for the movie.

And Juliet's edible ex was Perry (instead of Paris, whom Romeo also kills). And of course the balcony scene. Then again, I'm a huge Shakespeare fan, so I noticed it right away.

If I remember correctly, in the book they were smart enough to organize "classrooms" for child zombies. Child zombies didn't have an instinct to hunt humans and so they would be taught. Humans would be brought to the airport and the adult zombies would form a ring around human and child zombies so that the kids could learn to hunt. It's been a long time since I read the book. If you enjoyed the movie, I recommend it as it might fill in some plot points and lore.

Zoomer detected

This movie puts in mind a zombie novel I once read called 'The Words of Their Roaring'. The zombie infection in that book works something like this. An infected initially has a siezure, dies, revives, and starts eating people. And they stay that way for a long, long, looooong, time. But if an infected is around long enough, the infection stabilizes within them, and their brain begins to slowly fully reactivate. The novel is about how this happens years after infection, and once the process completes a zombie is once again fully human in intelligence and thought, but the survivors who have lived in terror of the zombies for years ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS and pop zombies on reflex. So the first few zombies to complete this process are struggling to try and communicate to the uninfected that things are changing, and there soon won't be a reason to fear their kind anymore. That soon, the danger will pass and the world can rebuild, human and zombie together. It's a really cool novel, I really suggest it.

I think there are concepts here that are very fascinating. For starters, the zombies still think. That alone is interesting, but the fact they gain memories from the brains they eat is also fascinating. Imagine a zombie virus variation that actually allowed them to become more intelligent with every brain they eat, allowing for planning and societies, among other things. Additionally, I remember seeing a trailer for this movie and thinking R's heart started upon his first sight of Julie. That made me think, until this very video, that having a shock to the heart would've allowed for his returning to a human state, which I would've found the most fascinating concept. In other words, this movie would've been better if the zombies just needed a strong stimulation/shock to start the process of returning to life, and R's shock just happened to be love at first sight.

Congratulations, you catching onto it being Zombie! Romeo and Juliet put you ahead of 90% of people who watched the movie without reading the book (btw, a lot of your questions are answered in the book - they didn't leave with the car because they had zombie kids with them originally).

This movie has a warm place in my heart. Was goin through a rough time when it came out and I watched it alone in a theater and I always remembered it.

In addition to everything you said I always assumed that the virus itself also had a response to certain neurochemicals that could actually break down the viral DNA in large enough quantities. And since all emotions including love are generated by neurochemicals I was always under the impression that because of our listening to music in addition to the extended amount of time the virus has been present in the body he had enough dopamine in his system to break down enough of the virus to allow the process to begin. So after enough time of the body building up antibodies even though it wasn't able to transport them and the correct stimuli from the outside providing the dopamine kick the process that you described could begin. But of course that was just my theory in addition to what you said because I thought it would be interesting that there could be a virus that actually has a weakness to the neurochemicals from positive emotion which wouldn't have hindered it during immediate infection because people would be feeling things like fear and despair upon becoming infected as well as explaining why they refer to the late stage infected as being individuals who gave up hope

One thought about the bonies. We are told that they turn because they give up hope. What if its the other way around? Based on your observations, they would likely turn anyway and its just a matter of time. What if the giving up hope is a neurological symptom of the progression? They don't turn because they give up hope, they give up hope because whatever part of the brain that comes from is being affected by the progression.

While in Biology Processes and Interactions class, knowing all of the key terms, understanding core concepts, etc., these videos are even more fascinating, as I can follow along with the logic and make my own theories without coming to a misunderstanding that is later clarified by you. Truly incredible how deep this stuff goes.

I love this movie lol. I wonder how other zombie movies would go if their zombies could be cured via ✨The power of love✨

If you haven't seen The Returned, another zombie movie that treats zombies as infected that can be cured as long as they keep taking the treatment. It's an interesting take on zombies.

Yes! I remember when I watched the movie I had a sort of morbid curiosity with these. How that life cycle went, etc And of course you cover it! Thank you!

Honestly, I was one of those people that initially trashed this as “Twilight is taking over my Zombies now” until I randomly watched it. It’s a fun take on zombies in my opinion and your breakdown of the virus itself makes me enjoy the movie more.

A different hypothesis could be based on the fact that memories are essentially chemical changes within the brain and taste buds have taste receptors of nerves which act based on chemical composition of the food. When they eat brains their tastebuds pick up the chemicals . It can also explain why they experience fragments of the victim's memories and not the entirety of it.

I unironically watch this movie at least 3 times a year. Guilty pleasure movie is not even close to how much this movie means to me 😂 great breakdown as always.

I think this movie is pretty funny having at parts and has some interesting ideas. The whole romance zombie thing is whatever but I like when the zombies are trying to talk to eachother and just kind of trying to exsist as whatever they have become.

Dude I just found your channel like 2 weeks ago and now look forward to every movie breakdown you make haha I love your science mix with humor approach. Please keep up the great work! I would love to see you break down the machine from Oblivion with Tom Cruise and your thoughts on it's origins.

I swear I watched this movies with my girlfriend last week and I was wondering if you would talk about this zombie flick in any of your video. And boom there it is. So cool

10:14 I love (comedy wise) the concept of Nice Guy like Skeletons

These zombies remind me of the Undead from Dark Souls. Undead in Dark Souls behave like average humans so long as they keep faith, or they risk giving in to despair and going Hollow (much like the Boneys). Hollows are just insane, they know how to use weapons and will emulate what they did before going Hollow.

Truth be told, between the the absolute gall it required to be this cheesy, and the fact that this movie was functionally the mortal wound to the zombie movie craze, I respect that hell out of this picture.

I may be a humble stupid carpenter, but your uploads are still the highlight of my weekends, love your videos. Thanks to you I fell in love with biology, virology all of it.

Another really good zombie movie that also has some questions about morality, is “The Cured” it’s an Irish film that’s pretty unknown from my knowledge. It’s got a really interesting presentation of the zombie virus that would be cool to hear you explain.

Yesss I enjoyed that one as well. It's very similar to this one in some key concepts.

12:49 I ended up buying this movie and after watching it over ten times I realized the whole R and Julie thing while watching this scene and my brain just exploded. When I call my then Fiance about it and was just "WOW, I just realized this!" she was just "Yeah, duh, you didn't get that the first time we watched it?" I felt really deflated after that... but I relieved the high through you just now! Thanks Roanoke! I wasn't the only one who didn't realize right away!

Really enjoy your vids my man. Thanks for the entertainment and education. I’m actually surprised how much I’ve retained from your vids vs years of college

This was surprisingly a decent movie

@@RoanokeGaming I like the concept of the movie. They can keep their humanity long enough to return back to human-ish. Or loose their humanity and become feral monsters. They should’ve put it in a different genre and not a romance genre

I remember going to see this in theaters a long, long time ago. Completely forgot this existed, but I remember having a good time with friends and having a few laughs at some scenes. Excellent breakdown as always!

Low key this is one of my favorite movies to put on in the background. It’s just so goofy I adore it. Thank you for covering it.

I've been waiting on this particular video for a looooong time. So long that when a movie recap dropped a break down of the movie, it led me directly to your channel. Either way, good shit, keep up the amazing work Chief

The power of love truly defies logic and fact, even in a zombie wasteland.😹

I’m like actually really happy to see this video and comment section, because I really enjoyed the movie when it first came out when I was a little kid, and I thought the concept was cool simply because it was a new, fresh idea on the zombie apocalypse! And I remember it made me sad when my dad was like…”nah I don’t like it I think it was stupid” and just generally seeing the poor reception of it. It’s silly but it warms my hopeless romantic heart thematically and makes my writer heart excited seeing a new take on zombies!

You've been a staple of my covid and post covid life my man, keep it up. This was an awesome vid

This movie came out during the height of the Twilight hype. My Mother and Sister loved Twilight so this was something they liked too. It's actually a fun watch for a romantic comedy night.

I truly enjoy all your videos, Dr.Roanoke. I look forward to seeing more of your infection videos. Also, can you do the Scourge of the Beast from Bloodborne?

MY GUY I had the exact same realization with R and Julie and the balcony scene! Likely the same reaction too! Amazing.

I'm glad you had fun with this one Roanoke, it shows. Really enjoyed it

Hey roanoke can you look at the aliens from the xcom games and how they were altered with human genes?

Love this movie - I love the complex theorizing you did here, I've never thought about the infection to much of an extent and it was very entertaining to see this take on it 💜

Another great video bro. Keep ‘em coming. On a side note on the killer clown from outer space videos when you said something about along the lines of a bunch of clowns otherwise known as you and your boys had me dying of laughter!

Awesome video, also I think it'd be really interesting to breakdown the vocal cord parasites from MG.

I *never* ever thought Roanoke would make a review and analysis about this particular movie ! Nice! Also I have some recommendations the hamsburg syndrome the puppet masters skyline the thaw the crazies fire in the sky mission to mars captive state red sky as well as day of triffids slither dark skies 2001s the lost world which was not a jp movie red planet the lifeforce

From left 4 dead to killer clowns from space, man this channel does some amazing things trying to explain things we all sat and wondered if you watched or played what he is talking about. Keep of the great work man it’s super interesting

This shit may be corny but I did love that its one of the few full blown zombie outbreak movies that has not only a cure but a hopeful ending the world can move on. Most others its just "90% of the pop is gone... The End."

I was honestly hoping you’d do this movie next, and it became reality lol

A second warm bodies movie would be awesome as like a totally different genre, like a detective movie with the zombie-humans and humans working together or smth

One point to add on the heart is the different HR of the SA node being 60-100 bpm, AV node being 40-60 BPM and then 20-40 bpm for the base Ventricular rate with each of those taking over when a slower rate is detected. This could be part of the start up and slow return to being "human" in reverse, with the Ventricular rate, AV rate, and SA node rates to slowly restart the bodies HR and other bodilly processes. This can also partly explain R getting sick later in the film from Perry brains after the restart process started and the rotten brain is now toxic to a restarting GI tract. Just my thoughts. Anyone else?

Roanoke. In the most platonic way possible. I fucking love you. Ive read all the books save for the 4th book (because its a whole hassle to get a hold of). Youve made my week with this video.

Has Roanoke done xenomorphs and neomorphs? Seems like the franchise that needs a video the most. Edit: ok yeah. HOW HAS HE NOT COVERED XENOS???? Also great video. I honestly really liked warm bodies. Thought it was a really good addition to the zombie genre. Could have used a second movie to explain some more about the world.

Ooh, more theoretical science! I have to say, it’s games like Halo that originally sparked my interest in Biology, and potential zombie viruses. Ever since, I’ve loved watching things like this. It’s nice to hear speculative science on this from someone who’s job it is to analyze these microorganisms.
