Because then the kid has free agency. And then the kid watching it gets to explore what it would be like to go on an adventure like that because good parents would never allow it.
Similar to what makes zombie and apocalypse movies interesting for adults: mass genocide? Too gory. They’re zombies? Do whatever you like! No rules. No laws
Dead Snow (Norwegian: Død snø) is a 2009 Norwegian comedy horror film directed by Tommy Wirkola, starring Charlotte Frogner, Stig Frode Henriksen, Vegar Hoel, Jeppe Laursen, Evy Kasseth Røsten, Jenny Skavlan, and Lasse Valdal. The film centers on a group of students surviving a zombie Nazi attack in the mountains of Norway. The premise of the film is similar to that of the draugr, a Scandinavian folkloric undead greedily protecting its (often stolen) treasures. NYAV Post has produced an English dub of this film for the home media release.
