Amazon.com: The director/producer team that created Trainspotting turn their dynamic cinematic imaginations to the classic science fiction scenario of the last people on Earth. Jim (Cillian Murphy) wakes up from a coma to find London deserted--until he runs into a mob of crazed plague victims. He gradually finds other still-human survivors (including Naomie Harris), with whom he heads off across the abandoned countryside to find the source of a radio broadcast that promises salvation. 28 Days Later is basically an updated version of The Omega Man and other post-apocalyptic visions; but while the movie may lack originality, it makes up for it in vivid details and creepy paranoid atmosphere. 28 Days Later's portrait of how people behave in extreme circumstances--written by novelist Alex Garland (The Beach)--will haunt you afterward. Also featuring Brendan Gleeson (The General, Gangs of New York) and Christopher Eccleston (Shallow Grave, The Others). --Bret Fetzer
not a zombie movie,but much more ^ 28 days later is a well made film.it has good performances from its main actors,it is suspenseful,and there are some scary moments.the director maintains tension throughout the movie.the make up effects in the film are very well done,so that the infected look much less than human,quite horrifying in fact.the action sequences are well done as are the dramatic moments.this a not a zombie movie per Se,but a movie about human relations and interaction in the face of what seems like hopelessness.the most horrifying thing in the movie is its premise,which is: plague has spread throughout the land,infecting people and turning them into animalistic creatures,not quite zombies,but not human either and having no thought other than attacking and infecting the uninfected.it shows the desperation that some people are willing to go through to survive.i won't give away any specifics of the plot.anyway,for me,this is a well crafted movie all around.it is a deep movie with a message and it asks some very scary questions.highly recommended 4/5
Best of all Zombie Movies EVER!!! ^ Some people say this isn't really a zombie movie because the zombies are actually dead. I say that's crazy! The "infected" in 28 Days Later are as zombie as zombies can be! Blood thirsty! Wild! Unstoppable! This movie is slower paced than some but I think that's a good thing. There are a lot of really great moody scenes where they're thinking about what it means that the whole world is gone and they've lost all their family and friends or staring at burning cities or the wild horses that survived, and it really hits you in the stomach. The cinematography is amazing. Love the sound track. The acting is great, too. 28 Days Later is one of our favorite and best zombie movies EVER. Don't let anyone fool you otherwise. A screaming crowd of filthy biting crazy people are zombies zombies zombie!!!
Extremely Poor Picture Quality ^ As has been pointed out by some others this is NOT a BluRay disc that even comes close to anything approaching HD quality.
On my 55" HD it looked like an SD TV broadcast; This is an excellent movie but I wouldn't have wasted my money on this low quality BD if I had known how disappointing the image quality was going to be.
Excellent movie, but beware, not HD. ^ I purchased this movie on Blu-ray assuming it would be 1080p, but I was mistaken. It is simply DVD quality. Save yourself the trouble and purchase it on DVD. I do however, love the movie content which is why I purchased it in the first place!
The transfer is not the problem, the actual movie looks like that! ^ To the people that say the video quality is poor, it was pretty well known that they used inexpensive DV cams to film the movie which gave it it's gritty look. The last scene of the movie was the only part that was filmed later using 35mm cameras and you can tell the difference because it looks very clear and detailed in contrast. The transfer is just fine and is the highest quality transfer you're going to get of this movie. The film looked like this in the theater people!
