TheLastOfUs's car sequence follows the trajectory of its analog in the video game but adds little moments of terror that accrue into something even stronger.
Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Episode 1 of The Last of Us, and spoilers for the plot of The Last of Us Part I video game.One of the most thrilling and memorable sequences in The Last of Us video game's prologue is the getaway drive during the initial outbreak of the cordyceps fungus. Craig Mazin's HBO adaptation of The Last of Us captures this terrifying drive perfectly and also manages to amplify it to a devastating degree.
The Infected Neighbors In both the game and the first episode of The Last of Us HBO series, Joel Miller , his brother Tommy , and his daughter Sarah attempt to use Joel's truck to flee the suburbs outside of Austin, TX as a pandemic causes mass panic, chaos, and carnage around them. Craig Mazin's adaptation of the getaway sequence heightens the tension and stress considerably, plunging the characters into an immediately frantic, bloody, and tumultuous situation.
In a shot taken directly from the game, Tommy and Joel discuss taking route 71 to get to safety. As they approach a few road signs at an intersection, a few cop cars go speeding by their vehicle. Just like in the game, the radio is no longer picking up signals, but unlike the game, things are a bit less certain and the characters seem more frazzled. Joel informs Sarah that they are not certain why or how this is happening, and that uncertainty only adds to her fear.
Just like in the game, Tommy wants to stop and help some stranded pedestrians, but Joel tells him to keep driving. In both versions, he says, "Somebody else'll come along," which seems to be meant to reassure himself as much as his daughter. As the Millers head toward the highway, they're nearly sideswiped by passing cars heading in the opposite direction. They're met with a massive traffic jam that's blocking their main escape route.
