Why were the CDC dudes bad guys?


Where were all the authorities?

Why were the CDC dudes bad guys, trying to get all rapey in an epidemic?

reply

I think those guys weren't officials, I think that they were just ordinary people who took things a bit too far while trying to survive

reply

I think they were survivalist/doomsday people, they probably were good people before the virus hit but survival turns people

HUMANITY HAS ALWAYS FEARED THAT WHICH IS DIFFERENT

reply

Taking hostages and threating barely legal women (how old was Kate anyway?) has very little to do with survival. These men were giant douchebags (and potential criminals) before the pandemic; the disease merely brought to the surface what were they capable of without no law enforcement aorund to handle them. The good captain, on the other hand... I didn't even know what he was doing with those guys.

The actress playing Kate was 23 during filming. Hardly 'barely legal'. Besides which, morals aren't a spectrum. You're not an 'ok guy' coz you only rape over-legal age women. You're immoral. There is ONLY moral and immoral.

they weren't

The only CDC guy was the doctor with the "kool-aid"

The guys at the resort worked in a mill. The one with decent morals was the foreman at the mill.
