World War Z: Mary Miller

The character my group focused on from World War Z was Mary Jo Miller. Her story told from San Diego, California was quite haunting to me. Her story is more focused on an actual attack from the zombies. As we discussed in class, her attitude was quite apathetic and just "whatever" about the zombies, until it was literally in her own home. In her story, her and her children are able to flee to safety, but it is never clear if her husband committed suicide from being bitten by a zombie, or if he sacrificed himself and was killed by a zombie. Her story put into perspective for me how scary and serious this all really was.

Oops, I've been forgetting to post!


So, I really enjoy World War Z.  It reminds me of a very serious Zombieland (for those who have seen it) in how I picture things going on.  The interviews that are more action-packed, I find more interesting than those just explaining what was going on behind the scenes.  I'd say my favorite and most impacting interview that I have read so far had to do with Sharon from Kansas.  It is eerie to hear a story of a zombie attack coming from a child-like perspective.  It was a really chilling scenario in my opinion.
