The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street Theme
Storyboard-Text
- One major theme of "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" by Rod Sterling is that violence doesn't solve problems. First, when everybody was arguing and went silent because they heard something on the road, they thought it was an alien but weren't sure. Charlie grabbed a gun and shot the person. They later walked up and realized that Charlie had killed Pete Van Horn. This shows how Charlie acts and doesn't think before he works, but after he does this, it solves nothing because everybody starts blaming Charlie after that, and the conflict still goes on. Then a man runs out of the room chasing Charlie and tackles him to the ground. He gets out, and more people come and start throwing punches, breaking out a fight. This fight was a waste of everybody's time because they still had to figure out what was causing all of their problems. Lastly, at the end of the story, Charlie starts to blame Tommy for all the weird stuff going on, but half of the residents believe Charlie, and half believe Tommy. Soon after, the residents started getting mad, and a fight broke out. People started swinging, screaming, blaming, and accusing; it was all crazy. But that wasn't it. During the fight, the lights for each resident's house turned on and started flickering. In Conclusion just because a couple of aliens shut down the cars and radios and turn off the lights in the house it can cause huge problems for no reason.
