Richard Preston wrote a true story about a chilling story of an Ebola virus outbreak that occurs in a suburban Washington, D.C. laboratory in 1989. In this laboratory, monkeys being used in experiments quickly become ill and die due to a filovirus. From his introduction, Richard Preston tells about an explosive chain of lethal transmissions, which begins far from Washington, D.C. laboratory and allows the laboratory to become a "Hot Zone" (get it?). The area contains infectious, lethal organisms. In vivid detail, Richard presents a meltdown of a man's body, known in the story as Charles Monet, which is invaded by a filovirus in a part of the African rain forests that also presents the world with HIV virus through the Kinshasa Highway.
So begins his departure from the known world. He answers his call to adventure by buying himself a costume, naming himself Kick Ass, and heading back to the alley to naively face his first “enemies.” Not realizing that a wetsuit and a mask aren’t all it takes to be able to call himself a superhero, he is shocked when he is beaten, stabbed, and hit by a car. After days in the hospital and hours on the surgical table, he is filled with so many metal pins, bars, and plates that he calls himself ‘Wolverine.’ Graced with a steel skeletal system and an obscene amount of

In “My Creature from the Black Lagoon” King discusses his thoughts on horror films and challenges the reader to change their initial perception of the term “horror movie.” Most Americans think of a movie with lots of blood and monsters when they think about horror movies. However, King argues that a movie does not have to be about monsters, or even adult oriented, to be scary. King writes, “There are adults today, who, when questioned, will tell you that the most frightening thing they saw at the movies as children was Bambi’s father shot by the hunter, or Bambi and his mother running before the forest fire” (p.585). Any movie can technically be a horror movie if the viewer has terrifying feelings because of it, even Disney movies. King’s essay “My Creature from the Black Lagoon” is, overall, easy to
I want to be plastic.” But just how long will Hollywood remain plastic? How long before Hollywood and Los Angeles become afflicted by the very zombie apocalypse that their inhabitants have been romanticizing for decades? Worth more than $5 billion dollars to the U.S. economy, zombies have become a very possible reality to millions of Americans. Task forces and organizations have dedicated their time, money, and effort into preparing and establishing awareness for a possible zombie outbreak.We can thank the Kens and Barbies of Hollywood for raising such a hysteria with box-office hits such as World War Z (2013) and Emmy award-winning T.V. shows like The Walking Dead.
The concept of revenge is as old as time itself, in a famous line that has been borrowed from an 18th century novel, “revenge is a dish best served cold,” is magnanimously demonstrated in the short story “Saboteur.” Written by Ha Jin, a University professor disgruntled by the suppression of the Chinese people by the Communist government, the story tells the account of an unfortunate police encounter. The encounter leads to an epidemic where 800 people contract a horrible disease, 6 die, among the victims were 2 children (Jin 185). Unbeknownst to the police and the population of Muji, they themselves brought this horrible epidemic on themselves, by violating, torturing, and falsely incriminating a one Mr. Chiu. Their actions not only broke an educated mans resolve, but fueled a desire of revenge, colder than most winters. Throughout the story the gradual abuses break down Mr. Chiu and he eventually falls from grace.
