28 Weeks Later


The problem with this film is that you're not worried about the Rage virus. Instead a lot of the people in it seem to be infected with something much worse - the Spasmo virus. Everyone is so incompetent I reckon that in the third film there would be a scene where a zombie is charging towards someone who shuts their eyes in self defence, on the grounds that if they can't see the zombie then the zombie can't see them, and they are safe, QED. There is also a lot of emoting and family bonding going on. I don't want that in a zombie film, it is positively against the zombie rules. What will they think of next, dancing penguins?


And there is one hilarious bit where it is revealed that you can survive a chemical weapons attack by holding your t-shirt over your mouth and breathing through that. It is not entirely without merit but all the characters are such prime dimlos it is hard to feel any sympathy for them whatsoever. Quite a few of my friends liked this but unfortunately they are wrong and it is shit.
