In the book, after the area that Paul and his company were fighting was gassed, one of his comrades was losing air in his mask, so he instinctively removed his mask and inhaled the poison, then die immediately. In films and on television the winners of a battle often win large pieces of land and quickly gain control of the war. But Erich Maria Remarque, the author, shows that they only win insignificant little pieces of land, which unfortunately are usual lost again later. A
Is this "monster" truly the "wretched devil" (68) Victor believes him to be? Or is he actually a "fallen angel whom [Victor] drove from joy for no misdeed... [and that] misery made a fiend" (69)? The case for the creature being a "hideous monster" (102) is quite strong. He murders young William Frankenstein with his bare hands; afterwards, he frames Justine Moritz for the crime because he "is forever robbed of all that she could give [him, therefore] she shall atone" (103). Victor's best friend, Henry Clerval, is murdered by the creature as well.
In this mission he encountered Victor Frankenstein, an extremely weak and moribund man. Victor soon explains to Walton his treacherous journey to find and exterminate his “monstrous” creation. Most people who read “Frankenstein” have the same perception of the characters involved in the novel. This perception usually has to do with Victor Frankenstein being a victim of his so-called “monster”, in other words his creation. This “monster” with grotesque features and actions ends up killing every one close to his maker out of hatred and vengeance.

Nearby, on the outskirts of Atlanta, a small encampment struggles to survive as “the dead” stalks their every turn. Can Rick and others hold onto their humanity as they fight in this terrifying new world? C. Wright Mill’s notion states that movies tend to have historic contents attached to it.

Based on my exposure to films and literary material on zombies, I define a zombie apocalypse as a large battalion of immortal zombies invading the earth, killing people (probably by devouring such mortal human beings), and destroying everything else piece by piece. The idea of survival of the fittest comes into the picture when talking about “escaping from the wrath of the zombies.” One human being can definitely live longer than the others; however, it is a sad, inescapable reality that everybody else is bound to die in the end. Now, why do I choose this case to be more horrifying? It is simply because in this specific scenario, one would have to go through and bear the physical and emotional pain and suffering. On one hand, the physical suffering pertains to the exhaustion of having to run from these carnivorous zombies, devising out-of-this-world plans to get rid of these zombies, and particularly being attacked by these zombies.

For my creative writing, ‘Beyond the Passing.’ The stimulus texts that I focused on are ‘The Road’ by Cormac McCarthy and ‘The Taker’ by Alma Katsu. From ‘The Road’ the themes that I used are survival, desperation and death. What fascinated me about the novel was that it was set in post-apocalyptic “burnt America” and there was hardly any humans left, and the other types of humans had turned to cannibalism due to lack of food. In my piece, it deals with similar issues, having most of mankind turn to zombies, known as “roamers” because of a nuclear bomb released to destroy the whole population. However, in McCarthy’s novel, it is unclear what the cause of the new world was.
