Why did this character simply die in Deadgirl (2008)? - Person Wearing Red Dress

In the film Deadgirl (2008), after jock boyfriend Johnny is bitten in his privates by the dead girl, he gets sick for a few days and later dies by excreting his own intestines.

After this happens, JT finds out that if the dead girl bites you, you will turn into a zombie too. He finds this out after she bites Dwyer.

So if this is true, then why didn't Johnny turn into a zombie instead of simply dying?



Best Answer

He didn't simply die, he turned into a deadboy. Note that he was crawling along the ground with his intestines hanging out (not the usual behaviour you'd expect from someone who has suffered the sort of fatal intestinal prolapse you'd associate with the very last stages of Ebola), then we find this dialogue later in the film...

Dwyer: Johnny's got his guts stuck back into him and he's starting to smell like fucking rotten meat, okay?

...

JT: But now I know, one bite from her and I can make another.

The only way he could know that is if Johnny hadn't just died but had, in fact turned into a zombie deadperson
