Who set the trap that caught Will Smith? Here's my take on that!

Rating: 8/10 (23 February 2008)

After watching this movie a couple of times, I have come to the following conclusions:
The zombie who looks at Will Smith for a couple of seconds in the sunlight, after Will just finished catching the other zombie with the trap he set up (I'm thinking it's the zombie's daughter Will just trapped, since she's approximately eighteen according to Will, and the zombie staring at Will in the sunlight looks late thirties, early forties),
IS THE SAME ZOMBIE AS:
-The one who sets up the SAME trap as Will using one of Will's mannequins as bait and trapping Will.
-The one who screams out loudly in the pier scene at night, just before Will is rescued by the Brazilian girl and the boy.
-The one who stops in front of Will's house and who lets out that horrible scream.
-And finally, the one in the final scene, where he (the zombie) crashes his head against the glass in Will's laboratory.
In all these instances, you see the burn marks on the zombie's face inflicted by the sunlight when he stared at Will for a few seconds. Also you can see in those scenes that the zombie is wearing exactly the same clothes.
This zombie also comes across as some kind of alpha-male leader of the zombies. Notice how he makes his way in Will's lab, tossing the other zombies aside violently to get to the glass protecting Will, the girl and the boy.
Will's character, Robert Neville had probably underestimated the zombies' intelligence. This would explain how the zombie was able to copy Will's trap.
