Conversationalists

FilmInfecté, encore vivant2000 à 2009

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

Ce que disent les sources

1

Stage one: the victim gets stuck repeating a word, often a term of endearment1

2

Stage two: speech becomes scrambled; stage three: the victim tries to chew through another person's mouth1

3

Speaking French or Armenian protects, because only English is infected1

4

Telling a victim that kill now means kiss makes her symptoms subside1

5

News broadcasts about the quarantine spread the infection further1

6

Based on Tony Burgess's 1995 novel Pontypool Changes Everything and also produced as a radio play1
