 A high school in Korea is under attack and the enemy (read in plural for impact) is straight out of folklore: zombies. How will a bunch of hot-headed teenagers diffuse this incomprehensible situation? Imagine this for a second: If ‘Stranger Things’—another crowd puller by Netflix—was made with Korean creative sensibilities in mind, and the entire cast and crew be stationed in Korea, and had M. Night Shyamalan as its director… That’s ‘All of Us are Dead’ in a nutshell. This Lee Jae-kyoo project regurgitates—and sort of cements its position in world cinema, yet again—as to why all of us should pay close attention to artists from Korea: the K-everything rage is NOT over nothing, guys! (All of Us Are Dead 1 Season Watch Free Online) What starts off as a harmless in- between-classes shiz at Hyosan High School soon takes the shape of a full-blown state crisis, with kids biting chunks of flesh off of each other, twisting their bodies in abnormal poses and positions, and gurgling out blood… human blood. This ‘turn’ of events can directly be credited to a certain group of bullies—not entirely though—and the gravity of this emergency is amplified by a lab-made virus (umm, rings a bell?). While the rest of the school is off to drain and drink human bodies, a sizable gang of classmates fight it out to stay afloat and make it to the other side of this epidemic: if that’s a possibility at all. Fewer things can qualify as ‘far-fetched’ and/or ‘unbelievable’ since the pandemic blindsided us with its presence in 2020.

And, this story just transports one back to those initial days of confusion: scary PPE kits, fights among peers over who brought the virus home, and the like. This 12-episode, lengthy show is by far the finest work on the apocalyptic nature of mankind: shows in simple, coherent terms why science-meets-human-intervention is always a lethal combo. Through hurried—and that is very much a compliment—storytelling and an anxiety- inducing pace of execution, Jae-kyoo takes us through the various stages of an engineered calamity: from seeding to whatever crazy reasoning the culprit(s) has to offer to its very end. Since we mentioned urban legends and folklore in our introduction, it’s interesting to note an excerpt from one of the first few episodes, where a dejected young girl says, “If no one is on your side, is it okay to kill?” Her wise words—the series is laden with such epiphanies—remind us of Mary Shelley’s classic dialogue from ‘Frankenstein’: “It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another.” In essence, ‘All of Us are Dead’ is both a sci-fi and a case study on humans’ survival instincts: some basic, others ugly.

 

 

 

 

 

‘All of Us Are Dead’ asks pertinent, yet uncomfortable questions pertaining to human nature when there’s room for such liberties, and throws in scientific jargon where it’s necessary. It is this unique fashion of presenting the narrative—a perfect blend of human awakening and what havoc it’s capable of wreaking—that makes this show one of the best in the genre thus far. Another aspect of the supernatural that is, although seen in the past in ‘Split’, fascinating is the intertwining of metaphysical entities such as zombies with semi-humans. Unlike other shows that barely touch upon topical plot points just to ensure it resonates, this series gets to the bottom of things without being too heavy or frustrating for its viewer. In it, we have the classic troupe of betrayal, class distinction, teen pregnancy and how a certain section of the society bullies those beneath them aka the rich brat syndrome. Through motifs and metaphors, ‘All of Us Are Dead’ intends to say: the joke is really on you. The young actors in the show, and we mean all of them, deserve a standing ovation for pulling off a subject—that is often frowned upon—with such earnestness. Yes, the gore can come off as too ghastly for television at times but one gets accustomed to the idea of that level of brutality on screen as the show progresses. Allow yourself some patience with this one. ‘All of Us Are Dead’ is a bloodbath not meant for your average Jane, or Joe: it is dark, dirty and strips humans of all dignity that’s regarded as a prerequisite to function in a civilized society. Our hunch is that you’ll either like it for its sheer audacity or hate it for its utter bluntness. Both ways, the show leaves its desired impact on you.
