All the Bodys Are blue


Why are all the dead people bluish in colour

reply

it could be due to the atmosphere gasses, on the planet and the lightning distorting the light rays from the sun ..?( much like when we get a red sky here on Earth) ?

Oxygenated blood is red. I would imagine that if your circulatory system were ripped open in an anaerobic atmosphere, your blood would remain blue. Thus, a corpse filled with coagulated, oxygen deficient blood would therefore be blue.

I doubt Malone was thinking of that, however.

Seriously though, sometimes 'corpse' makeup looks blue instead of the intended gray. E.g.: Dawn of the Dead (Romero's).

To be fair, it does look awesome.

These scenes scared the *beep* out of me when I was a kid...

'It's Susan! IT'S SUSAN!!'

Don't make em like that anymore.
