28 Days Later [P&S] [DVD] [2002]

An experimental laboratory in which animals have been infected with the virus of a disease for which a cure was being sought is invaded by an animal rights group and the animals let loose on the population. The plague almost instantly affects humans who spread it rapidly among themselves until the Island which is the United Kingdom is depopulated of all but a few unaffected individuals and many infected ones. It would appear that the larger world has also been affected but that is not directly of consequence for the plot. As we have seen in frequent theatrical and television productions recently, a few survivors come together and seek to find some other group(s) like themselves with whom, somehow, they can ride out the storm, so to speak, until they can recreate some form of group life again. Nothing in this is new on the media scene today. What struck me sufficiently to single this movie out is simply the high quality with which every aspect of the process was performed. It's a case of doing roughly the same job only doing it better. If your taste runs to this subgenre, you will not want to miss this film. If you want to see what model is being used by such films, this is a good one to try, since there is less visible violence and bloodletting than is to be found in the average of the type. I am not an aficionado, but found this rather simple version quite interesting to watch.

Good sequel but not as great as the original. Picture quality is as good as it will get for the date of the movie released vs blu ray technology. Good story and shame will never get to see the final movie in this trilogy, 28 months later.

28 Days Later is a creepy contagion flick that spooked me to the core. Cilian Murphy is the protagonist as you follow him waking up from a hospital bed to his unknowing that the world has changed around him. Eerily fraught with excellent zombie effects and wonderful characters. I want more. I highly recommend this film.

great movie should be in everyone's collection. i recommend it.

One of the earlier films featuring fast zombies, although technically they're not dead, just infected. Cillian Murphy stars in this gloomy but effective horror movie. Some intense scenes...

One of the very best modern day zombie type movies. With lots of at the edge of your seat horror action.

THIS MOVIE WAS GOOD FROM THE VERY START. I LOVE A GOOD MOVIE. ONE WAY TO KNOW A MOVIE IS GOOD..IF THE OPENING IS ACTION. NOW I NEED TO SEE 28 WEEKS LATER.

A bit of a slow burn with an amazing build to a climax that shows that Zombies are scary but Humans are straight up terrifying.
