The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street Theme
טקסט Storyboard
- One major theme in The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street by Rod Sterling is 'mankind is it's own worst enemy'. For Example, when the residents of Maple Street had accused Les Goodman of being a suspicious person because of his car turning on when he wasn't near, nor touching the car. When he had tried to turn on the car, it wouldn't turn on, page (75-77). This scene supports the theme by showing the beginning of the unrest of the residents on Maple Street. Another example is when the citizens of Maple Street accuse Steve because he was raising suspicion for trying to protect the Goodman's of the accusations from the people of Maple Street, Page (81-82). This scene illustrates the theme by adding more suspense to the story. Also, other scenes would eventually build up because of this scene that also illustrates the same theme. Lastly, when Charlie killed Pete Van Horn by accident, they were nervous about what would happen throughout the night, Page (82-83). This scene highlights the theme by showing how a peaceful, small town USA, could turn into chaos in the span of a few hours. In conclusion, the theme 'Mankind is it's own worst enemy' is the best theme for this story. At first, Maple Street was a peaceful street and now it had turned into a battleground all because of a power outage. This caused all of the false accusations that the citizens of Maple Street had made because they were scared for their families and their homes.
