28 DAYS LATER I have argued it for years and it seems that there are still people out there who think this is a zombie when it is clearly not. This film is no were near being a zombie flick as the INFECTED are not dead they are just INFECTED with a virus that was put into monkeys. I don't know why people think of this as a zombie flick but what ever. This is indeed a great film and when it was released one of the scariest films in recent years. … more

It must be prefaced that I'm a wimp with an overactive imagination who cannot watch the likes of The X-Files and Unsolved Mysteries beyond sundown. Horror is not my genre of choice, though I have viewed my fair share of horror, slasher and thriller flicks over time. My experience lies with classic horror (Poltergeist, The Exorcist, The Omen, Night of the Living Dead, etc) and quasi-spooky cheesy nonsensical low-budget nostalgic filler (Evil Dead, The People Under the Stairs, A Nightmare … more

I'll start by confessing that I'm not a big fan of Horror films. Don't get me wrong, they are cool. I just haven't seen too many of them. So, I'm kind of a newbie to this genre. This one came highly recommended by numerous friends and acquaintances. So, I decided to check it out. What stood out the most to me in this one was the way it was shot. It wasn't shot on 35mm film, like most films and a lot of the shots were done hand-held, instead of using … more

I had a lot of fun watching this when it first came out and still it is fun to watch right now, that's just me. Is this a perfect movie, that is up to you but I have a great time watching it.

I love the effects and style of the "infected". Not completely zombies, but still quite scary.

Please don't call 28 Days Later another zombie movie. This British cult favorite will keep you enthralled the entire film as you put yourself in Jim's post-virus shoes.

This movie scared me, we talk about this happening in the real world and it made me think too much. If you like that watch it;0

This is about as good as it gets in the mass infection/zombie genre. London and England are taken over by a mass infection that turns people into ravenous, kill happy destroyers of all things living. Beautifully shot with some stunning images of an empty London. It falls apart just a bit in the final third but it's at the very top of heap for these types of films.

This movie got a lot of attention like the Night of the Living Dead. I recently rented it and was greatly disappointed. This movie deals with a virus that makes people almost like mutant crazies that go around attacking other people. A group of people wander London trying to get back to "civilization." While the characters in George Romero's classic were interesting and you really felt for them, these characters are dull and sometimes act crazy themselves. The British accents were very difficult … more

I had seen this film a few times and it's surprisingly good. "28 Days Later" is a genre-defying film wrapped in a shoebox budget. The key to keeping the sci-fi horror genre alive is to make sure the material and techniques the filmmakers present is at least competent, at it's average creative, and at it's best something that we haven't seen before or haven't seen in such a style or form. George A. Romero did that back in prime of film-making, bringing forth one of the most memorable trilogies of … more

A really close friend of mine recommended that I see 28 DAYS LATER. I highly respect his taste in film and the first opportunity I had of watching the film after it arrived on DVD, I rented it. I enjoyed what I saw, though it wasn't quite like I was expecting.From the previews and trailers and even reading the blurb on the back of the package, one would think that 28 DAYS LATER is going to be a horrifying masterpiece of terror. Unfortunately, except for an unexpected car alarm that goes off in the … more

Pros: ..... Cons: ...... The Bottom Line: ________ Avoided this like the plague cause I truthfully couldn’t sit through another Bullock ‘gee, ain’t I the cute and perky girl next door’ love fest. Over Christmas I was literally at deaths door with the flu, (someday I’ll tell you about my incredible file cabinet I found buried in my chest ... man, talk about hallucinating ... lol ...) so as I wafted my way … more

Pros: Thought Provoking and at times disturbing. Cons: Plot can wander. The Bottom Line: A scary film at times that makes you think. It has been said that people can walk a thin line between sanity and madness. What is one to do then when there is nothing to check the madness and it is unleashed in its purest most animalistic form without a hint of sanity or compassion? This is the problem facing Jim … more
