Conversationalists

ZinemaKutsatua, oraindik bizirik2000tik 2009ra

Pontypool takes place in a small-town Ontario radio station while a language-borne infection spreads outside. Its director insisted the victims are not zombies but conversationalists. The approach was inspired by Orson Welles's War of the Worlds broadcast.1
