00:00 Hello everyone. Back again with film recap. In this video, I will recap one of a zombie
00:05 virus film from 2020, title alone. Before we get to the storyline, don't forget to
00:11 like and subscribe for more film recaps and have a great day. Without further ado, let's
00:16 get straight to the storyline.
00:20 At the beginning of the film, we are shown a man named Aiden. This man appeared to be
00:24 depressed and on the verge of committing suicide. The scene then switches to Aiden's life prior
00:33 to his suicide attempt. He strangely heard a commotion outside, as well as the sound
00:38 of people banging on the door. When he turned on the TV, he was confused because he saw
00:44 an emergency broadcast appeared. At the same time, he even heard the sound of chaos outside
00:49 his apartment. As Aiden exited to the balcony, he saw a helicopter that was out of control
00:54 and crashed into one of the buildings. He also noticed there were peoples running in
00:58 fear below his apartment. Then, as Aiden was panicking, he was suddenly approached by someone
01:04 who entered his apartment, who turned out to be his neighbor. His neighbor told him
01:08 to hide before he rushed to the toilet. Aiden found it strange when he noticed a bite mark
01:13 on the back of his neighbor's neck.
01:15 After that, the whole city began to know about the outbreak. The zombie outbreak news was
01:20 being shown on TV at the time. According to the news, the zombie virus would be spread
01:26 by blood from scratches and bites. Plus, a person infected with the zombie virus will
01:31 bleed in the eye, scream, and engaged in cannibalism. Aiden then became suspicious of his neighbor
01:37 when he noticed his neighbor's eyes were beginning to turn red, and he immediately chased him
01:41 away.
01:42 "Oh God!"
01:43 "I can't help you here, you have to leave."
01:45 Fortunately, that person still had consciousness despite being infected at that time. As soon
01:50 as his neighbor came out, that guy was instantly attacked by zombies in the corridor.

02:00 After that, Aiden seems very confused and at the same time the news advises staying
02:03 at home, keeping a safe distance from each other, or better yet, not seeing anyone at
02:08 all. He then received a messages from his father who was going to his place, but it
02:13 turned out that something was blocking his father's journey. Aiden tried to call his
02:17 father but the connection was lost. As the day passed, Aiden began marking the number
02:22 of days he had been in lockdown on the mirror with a marker. On the sixth day, he kept himself
02:28 busy by cleaning his apartment, which was followed by the news reports stating that
02:32 in large metropolitan areas had lost access to water. At night, he spends time telling
02:40 stories in front of his laptop camera, which he records on video for his vlogs.
02:52 After two weeks passed, Aiden began to run out of drinking water, and at the same time,
02:57 his vlog had reached 16 episodes. From this point, he became frustrated and hallucinated
03:02 since he had been in the room for a long time and not doing anything. Physical burden began
03:07 to appear on his face as well as a thickening beard. He pretended to perform music without
03:12 sound, and playing baseball as a result of his hallucinations. Finally, because he was
03:17 already too upset, the activity finished with him smashing the glass. Unexpectedly, the
03:25 sound of shattered glass unintentionally attracted zombies, who suddenly appeared and fell from
03:30 the vent of his apartment. Luckily, he managed to hit the zombie with his baseball bat. He
03:42 then used his surfboard to block the vent.
03:45 As time passed, Aiden was still doing the same activities every day. Until one day,
03:50 he got a voice message from his mother. From the voicemail, his mother said that his sister
03:55 had been out of town before the road was closed. Aiden was advised by his mother to go to his
04:00 sister's house. His mother also informed him that she and Aiden's father were doing a lockdown
04:05 at the office, and then he heard the sound of chaos at his mother's place. Aiden started
04:14 to get fed up by all of this, so he decided to go out and smash the zombies. But when
04:24 he was outside, the reality did not match his expectations, and he was chased by the
04:29 scary zombies right away. But fortunately, he managed to return to his apartment safely.
04:37 And as he looked through the peephole, he saw a zombie staring at the door while calling
04:41 him to go outside. After more than a month had passed, the entire city's electricity
04:51 began to run out.
04:54 Then we are returned to the initial scene when Aiden was about to commit suicide. He
04:58 began to lose hope on everything at the time, and he decided to end his life by hanging
05:03 himself. But then, he saw the figure of a woman who lived across his apartment. From
05:11 that very moment, Aiden decided to cancel his suicide and he began to find his purpose
05:16 to live.
05:18 The next day, he started communicating with the woman using a piece of paper. Through
05:22 this communication, he found the woman's name was Eva. Aiden feels very excited because
05:28 he can still communicate with other people, after being alone for over a month. He then
05:33 told Eva that she was the first normal person he had seen since the zombies attacked. When
05:38 it starts to rains in the evening, Aiden finally decides to take a shower after a long period
05:43 of time without bathing, and shave his whole beard.
05:47 The next day, he continued to communicate with Eva. Then, he threw a baseball that had
05:51 been tied to a rope in order to deliver drinks to Eva. Then, out of nowhere, a zombie who
06:00 looks to be good at climbing approaches Eva. Aiden then immediately lured the zombie, then
06:09 led him into his apartment. But at the same time, the other zombies attempted to break
06:14 into his apartment. As soon as the zombie outside stopped banging on the door, Aiden
06:18 grabbed his baseball bat and killed that zombie.
06:26 The story then continued into the night, with Aiden, who had ran out of food decided to
06:31 go outside, and take the keys from his neighbor who had died in front of his house earlier.
06:36 As what he expected, he was being chased by zombies at that moment. He then rushes into
06:45 his neighbor's house to get the remaining food. He also didn't forget to take other
06:49 necessities. However, just as he was about to take the rope, a zombie emerged out of
06:54 nowhere and ran towards him. Fortunately, Aiden was able to kill him. Despite having
07:02 to deal with zombies, Aiden finally managed to get the necessities and left safely. Based
07:08 on the items that he had taken, there were also two walkie-talkies that could still be
07:12 used. After that, he decided to go down and send the walkie-talkie to Eva's apartment.
07:18 He then hides first because there are many zombies running around below. After that,
07:23 Aiden finally managed to throw the walkie-talkie into Eva's house.
07:28 The next morning, Aiden hears Eva's voice on the walkie-talkie, and he was very happy
07:32 since he could finally talk to Eva. Eva also thanked Aiden for his struggle the whole time.
07:38 As the story progressed, Aiden began to notice that the food stock was running out. He then
07:43 decided to look for it by going through the air vent. And it turned out that there was
07:52 one dead zombie there. Aiden then finds an apartment that is still not contaminated by
07:57 the zombies. He also found a lot of food, but then a man who was still normal appeared.
08:04 It turns out that he is the owner of the apartment. This old man name is Edward. Following that,
08:11 Aiden began to talk with him, and Edward finally allowed Aiden to take some of his food. But
08:15 it wasn't that simple; Aiden was suddenly beaten by Edward until he passed out.
08:23 //
08:24 In fact, Edward deliberately hit Aiden because he had his own specific purpose. It turned
08:28 out that he did it all to have Aiden devoured by his wife, who had turned into a zombie.
08:33 The reason Edward did this because he loved his wife very much. Aiden then protested and
08:38 begged Edward not to do that to him. But Edward instead offered painkillers to Aiden, so he
08:43 wouldn't feel pain when Edward's wife ate him. Following then, Edward heard the sound
08:48 of people banging on his door. When Edward rushed to his door, Aiden tried to get free
08:53 and he eventually succeeded. He then dodged Edward's attack, and threw him at his own
08:59 wife.
09:00 //
09:01 Edward then informed that a zombie had managed to enter her house. Aiden who heard this
09:05 immediately went down, and shot one zombie there. After shooting him, suddenly, several
09:12 zombies jumped from the balcony to chase him. Aiden then immediately ran away and climbed
09:18 onto the balcony under Eva's balcony, and yelling at her to get down. In the end, they
09:26 were able to be together, and run away from the zombies and back to Aiden's apartment.
09:31 From here, we can see they need to deal with a lot of zombies along their way.
09:37 //
09:38 Finally, Eva managed to safely get into Aiden's apartment. Aiden, on the other hand, was still
09:44 trying to fight the zombies outside before he managed to get inside. He felt as if he
09:49 had been bitten on his body, causing him to immediately urge Eva to kill him, but Eva
09:54 refused since she already loved him. As a result, Aiden ultimately decided to commit
10:01 suicide by jumping off the building. However, when he just took off his shirt, they were
10:06 surprised to find that there was no bite mark on his body.
10:10 Before the film ends, they hear that zombies are still trying to break into the house.
10:15 And they tried to hold it on. At that moment, they promise to stick and get through it together.
10:22 And the film ends.
10:25 To be honest, despite the fact that the film started with a few of slow scenes, but as
10:29 the story progressed, many interesting parts start to appear. Coupled with the appearance
10:34 of an old man who added to the tension in the film.
10:37 Okay guys. That's all the recap for Alone 2020. Thanks for watching. See you again in
10:43 the next video.
