Connection

I made a very weird and gross connection from my book to a movie I saw. In my book "The Road" the man and boy find a house that seems to be in relatively good condition, and given there circumstances of not having much food left, they decide to check it out. When they go in the can't find anything on the main floor and decide to go down stairs. The main pulls out his lighter and looks around and sees about ten naked people all staring at him and they whisper, "help us" The man grabs his sun and sprints up the stairs and sees a couple men about to walk into the house through the front so they turn and try to find another way out. Then right there was when the teacher said put away your books...


This part in the book actually gave me nightmares. I don't think this book was suppose to do that but I just stopped reading for a couple days because it freaked me out.


Although that part freaked me out, it reminded me out a movie called "The Book of Eli" This is another apocalyptic movie and in this movie they find a similar house and get trapped in there by people who eat other people. This helps me make inferences on why those people were trapped in the basement. But don't let this part discourage you from watching this movie, it was very good. It's about the world going through a nuclear war and books are scarce and people try to find them to rebuild.
