Abafileyo Abaphilayo

Kuningi ongakusho mayelana Abafileyo Abaphilayo. Kuningi ongakusho, eqinisweni, ukuthi angiqiniseki ngokuphelele ukuthi kufanele ngiqale kuphi.

Njengoba iningi lenu selivele liyazi, le noveli yaqalwa ngu George A. Romero. I-godfather ye-zombie cinema yesimanje enomthamo onempilo wokuphawula komphakathi inqume ukubhala indaba engase ibe nkulu kakhulu kune-movie eyodwa eqala esigcawini esisodwa: abafileyo abasahlale befile.

Ngokudabukisayo, uRomero washona ngaphambi kokuba akwazi ukuqedela le noveli futhi esikhathini esithile ngemuva kokufa kwakhe, umfelokazi wakhe wafinyelela kuDaniel Kraus wambuza ukuthi angakucabanga yini ukuqeda umsebenzi. UKraus akazisungulanga njengombhali kuphela, kodwa futhi nokuthile njengochwepheshe emsebenzini kaRomero, futhi-ke wathi yebo.

Umphumela uba yinoveli yamaqhawe enamakhasi angama-630 enezinhlamvu ezihamba phambili ngendlela ethusayo.

Ukucaciswa okuncane ngaphambi kokuthi siqale ngempela, yilokhu hhayi ukwenziwa kabusha kwama-movie kaRomero. Kubukeka sengathi kube nokungaqondi okuthile ngaleyo inthanethi ngakho-ke ngifuna ukucaca kulokho. Lokhu kubuyekeza kuqukethe nalokho abanye abangakubona njengokuphanga okulula kakhulu. 

Lokho uRomero noKraus abasinika khona yindaba yesimanjemanje esethwe emhlabeni womakhalekhukhwini, imithombo yezokuxhumana, nezindaba ezingamahora angama-24. Ngokungafani nanoma yimuphi umsebenzi wangaphambilini kaRomero efilimini, empeleni sibona icala lokuqala elibikiwe labafile livuka njengoba umhloli wezokwelapha uLuis Acocella kanye nomhlinzeki wakhe wezidakamizwa uCharlie Rutkowski benza ngokucophelela ukuhlolwa kwesidumbu kumuntu ongenakhaya owabulawa emlilweni emgwaqeni wedolobha.

Iphrozi lapha iyinkondlo futhi iyinkohliso. Imininingwane ibekwe phambi kwethu ngeminithi imininingwane. Izitho zendoda zisusiwe kanti uCharlie empeleni ubambe inhliziyo yale ndoda lapho amehlo akhe evuleka ngokuzuma. Udokotela nomdayisi babuka njengoba owesilisa ekwazi ukushelela etafuleni futhi azame ukubahlasela. Yize bekwazi ukumbulala futhi, ngokuzumayo babona ukuthi bemi egumbini elixhunywe kwisitoreji esibandayo lapho kugcinwa khona izidumbu eziyikhulu futhi baqala ukuzwa imisindo ngaphakathi kwalelo gumbi. Imisindo enanela leyo abasanda kuyizwa kumuntu ofile phambi kwabo.

Lesi yisiqalo. Ukusuka emakhazeni, sigxumela epaki yama-trailer yasemaphandleni, bese siya esiteshini senethiwekhi yezindaba zekhebula, ekugcineni sigcine othwala izindiza zasolwandle. Indawo ngayinye iza nabalingiswa bayo abathandekayo.

Ngokwethembeka, bekunezikhathi lapho ingqondo yami ishelele ku-epic kaStephen King The Stand. Leso yisilinganiso sokuxoxa izindaba lokho Abafileyo Abaphilayo ifinyelela futhi ekugcineni ifinyelele.

Engikutholile kuthakazelisa kakhulu, kepha kukho konke ukuxhumana kwabalingiswa kanye nezahluko ezinhlelwe kahle yisikhathi lapho ababhali banquma ukusifaka ezingqondweni zeZombies lapho ziqala ukujika. Sikhonjiswa kaninginingi ukuthi abantu, abanye babo esesibazi, bashintsha kanjani.

Ukucabanga kwabo okuphakeme kunikeza ithuba lokuzwela. Zilawulwa yindlala, kodwa futhi ziyazana, ziyafunda komunye nomunye, ziba nekhono lokuvalela nokubulala "labo abahamba ngokushesha" njengeqembu. Kusekhona ingxenye encane kunazo zonke kubo ebona izindawo nezinto, kepha bazibuka ngeso lokhozi okuhlanganisa konke kanye nesifiso sokusabalalisa iqembu.

Yidivayisi ehlakaniphile, kepha futhi inenjongo.

Njengoba inhlupheko isakazeka futhi abaningi abafayo bevuka, isintu sihlehliselwa phansi ngokushesha sibe “Sithi” uma kuqhathaniswa “Nabo.” Ngokusinikeza i-zombie POV, sibona zombili izinhlangothi zalokho kwehlukana. Izinkambu ezimbili zika- “Us” uma kuqhathaniswa nezinkambu ezimbili “Zabo.”

Manje-ke, le noveli iqalwe nguRomero, ngakho-ke kunenqwaba yomkhiqizo wakhe okhethekile wokuhlaziya umphakathi ngezindaba ezahlukahlukene. Mhlawumbe ngokwemvelo kakhulu kunalokho ebesingathanda ukuvuma ngezinye izikhathi, ikamu lomuntu elithi "Us" lihlehlana libe ngamaqembu amancane. Ubandlululo, ubufandamentali obuyingozi benkolo, kanye nezinye izinkinga eziningi zomphakathi zikhulisa amakhanda abo njengoba abantu befuna izizathu nasezingeni eliphakeme kakhulu, umuntu okufanele asolwe ngokwenzekile.

Lokhu ngokungangabazeki kuzocisha abalandeli abesabekayo, ikakhulukazi labo abathi ukwethuka akukona okuphathelene nezenhlalo futhi abakaze babone ukuthi badlala kangakanani kumafilimu afana nalawa Ubusuku babaPhilayo abaFileyo.

Ngenkathi Abafileyo Abaphilayo Akungabazeki ukuthi isifundo sabalingiswa esibhalwe kahle, kukhona nenqwaba ye-gore yokuhamba kulabo abathanda umthamo ophilile wobuchopho negazi odongeni. Ezinye izigcawu ezikule ncwadi ziyaxokozela esiswini, ikakhulukazi kulezo zikhathi lapho indaba iqala khona. Izinga lemininingwane alikhathazi neze, futhi ababhali babeka lezo zigcawu enqubeni yenoveli ngendlela yokuthi zingalahleki ngokuphelele.

Ngokwazi ukubhala, bengingakwazi ukusho ukuthi kumise kuphi ukubhala komunye umbhali kwaqala omunye okufakazela ithalente likaKraus njengombhali. Kungumsebenzi owesabekayo ukubhala ngokubhaliwe indaba ende lapho zombili izinhlangothi zihlala. Ngicabanga nje ukuthi kwakunjani ukungakwazi ukufonela uGeorge bese ubuza, "Manje ubuyaphi ngaleli phuzu?"

Ngabe wonke umuntu othanda ama-movie kaGeorge Romero angayithanda le ncwadi? Kunzima ukusho lokho. Kimi, bekuthakazelisa futhi bengikuthanda ukuxoxa izindaba nohlobo lokujula okujulile okungenzeka kuphela kwifomu yenoveli, kepha bengibona lapho abanye bengaphonswa khona ubude benoveli nokunaka imininingwane.

Ngizokusho lokhu, Abafileyo Abaphilayo kuyisipiliyoni se-visceral kanye ne-cerebral esizodonsela umfundi ozinikele ezingalweni zakhe ukuze asondele ngokwanele ukuthi angaluma.

Abafileyo Abaphilayo iphumile namuhla, Agasti 4, 2020. Unga-oda ikhophi yakho ngo- UKUFAKA LAPHA!
