Editorial Comments

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

Description:
Hailed as the most frightening film since The Exorcist, acclaimed Director Danny Boyle's visionary take on zombie horror "isn't just scary…it's absolutely terrifying" (Access Hollywood).

An infirmary patient awakens from a coma to an empty room…in a vacant hospital…in a deserted city. A powerful virus, which locks victims into a permanent state of murderous rage, has transformed the world around him into a seemingly desolate wasteland. Now a handful of survivors must fight to stay alive, unaware that the worst is yet to come…

5 out of 5 starsThinker's Horror
If you didn't like this movie, that's too bad, especially because that means you just cannot see a good movie even if it were to hit you in the face. The problem with this movie is that the zombies in the movie provide more of a backstory for the movie and the things that are happening.

Instead, what you get is a really smart and intelligent movie with a very good twist at the end that does actually make much better use of the zombies. Some of the images are praise-worthy as well, especially of the horses, the "bright sunny day" over the typical "doom-and-gloom" feel of most horror movies and just an odd soundtrack that, while it doesn't seem to fit in a horror movie only makes it that much creepier.

If you want a bloodbath, watch the sequel, 28 Weeks Later, which is much more intense, bloody, and violent, but just as intelligent and well made, with many hailing it as an on par sequel, a rarity in movies, especially.

If you like horror movies or intelligent movies, this movie is indeed a must-see, similar to, say, Rosemary's Baby, which is hardly scary at all.

*****5 stars*****



4 out of 5 starsThoughtful and Terrifying
Danny Boyle frightens and provokes in this Sci-Fi/horror/Armageddon thriller.

What if you woke up and everyone in London was gone? You are all alone in one of the most bustling cities in the entire world ...? Pretty scary. Now imagine finding out how that came to be ...? Also terrifying. Like a Lovecraft tale of terror, Boyle takes us on an adventure for truth and survival with the excellent Cillian Murphy.

Apocalyptic story lovers will not be disappointed with this film.

Highly recommend!



4 out of 5 stars28 days later
A definite must see movie if you had not seen either 28 days later or 28 weeks later before. It makes a great leading movie into 28 weeks later. Shows how a mad rage virus can alter a whole country.



5 out of 5 starsONE OF THE BEST SUSPENSE MOVIES EVER!
I call it suspense because I don't think it was meant to be horror, or at least not the kind of horror Hollywood usually gives us (which I do not like at all, but unfortunately a lot of people were expecting). It is NOT about zombies, it is about people infected with a virus, so deadly and contagious it goes beyond control.

And I totally agree with another reviewer, what I loved about this movie is that it's something that could definitely happen, and that's what makes it terrifying (at least for me). If you pay attention to the first couple of minutes of the movie, it is very clear where the virus comes from (and that's why I am sure this could definitely happen if they keep doing stupid experiments on animals).

Anyway back to the movie! The acting is great, even though the actors are relatively unknown. It's one of those movies that has so much going on that it seems much longer than it actually is. If your brain cannot process a lot of information then you probably won't like it. But if you enjoy a more serious plot and psychological suspense instead of million-dollars-worth-of-destruction kind of action, then this is a great option!



5 out of 5 starsExcellent contemporary "zombie" flick
There are very few zombie movies made nowadays. This is considered one of the better ones. Although in this movie, people are induced into attacking others by a virus. It communicates the importance between maintaining vigilance and caring for others. Both points are brought across in different ways. Another Rackworthy movie.
