What happened to the 'mutates'?

I thought about that comment that they might not be as numerous as we think, but I never inferred from that that the mutates were actually in the minority, just not perhaps so great a majority. But given their violent nature I doubt anything could ever have been done to tame them -- humanitarian aid might have made them less prone to attack but they weren't going to be brought into the normal community, which they couldn't cope with in any case, nor was it likely they'd die off anytime soon (offering medical and other aid would serve to insure that!). I suspect you'd end up with two sets of competing humans on the planet, for centuries to come. If warfare didn't become the norm (remember all those other mutates across the world, vs. not knowing how many normal humans might also survive), then something close to it -- a cold war with occasional flare-ups -- would surely have resulted. Humanitarian impulses would likely have precluded a campaign of extermination -- they are our cousins, after all -- so I think there'd remain this simmering, dangerous, genetically unstable and very large population coexisting very uneasily (at best) with the normal humans -- and unable, intellectually, to even grasp the concept of "coexistence", "humanitarian", or anything else. Far from the bright future contemplated at the end of the movie.

How about a sequel!?

What percentage of the clientele are mutates?

Being a retired military officer, the first thing I would do is send a scouting party -well armed with comm. Rules of engagement-- fire only if under threat. General orders-gain intell re population, locations, disposition, et al, ala Lewis and Clark. Hopefully intell would be gleaned to plan the next steps with some rough knowledge....
