Profoundly indebted to George Romeros. Barely conceiving of a world beyond Britain, this is a very insular movie, but none the worse for that. In that sense, the film is just one more in a genre that includes Night of the Living Dead, The Thing, Virus which is not to deny Boyle’s unquestionable talent.28 Days Later Film, Horror. 28 Days Later aligns itself with the typical loss-of-individuality plotonce an individual is infected, their humanity gives way to the monstrous.
Disorientated & confused he makes his way through a deserted hospital & out into the streets of a deserted London. She is instantly infected (the speed in which it spreads is terrifying) & attacks the rest of them.Skip to 28 days later & we meet Jim (played by an incredible Cillian Murphy) who has just woken from a coma in a Central London hospital. However like all good animal activists, they ignore him & release a chimp that then attacks one of them. The activists are discovered by a scientist who begs them not to release the chimp explaining that they are infected with a rage-inducing virus that spreads through blood & saliva.

The pure aggression they exhibit alongside the sounds & the look, it’s the stuff of nightmares especially when you see how quickly it takes hold.3. The infected are scary as hell. All ranges of emotions are played out & those that had to play infected really made sure they came across terrifying.2. Quite simply some of the best stuff you’ll see in any horror movie. The calibre of the acting. After hearing a pre-recorded message from the military that the answer to infection is near Manchester they all agree to go there in Frank’s black cab.It’s a long & dangerous trip that might all be for nothing…just what is the answer to infection?28 Day Later is such an enjoyable film for 4 reasons:1.
It’s a rollercoaster of a journey that unfortunately doesn’t quite end as well as it possibly could have.It’s no secret now that there were multiple possible endings yet they chose to go with one that made things a little too happy for my liking. You’ll feel fear, pain, anxiousness, peacefulness, sadness, anger & hope as you watch. Placed perfectly to fit each scene, it never feels out of place & even some of the more elaborate stuff works incredibly well.It’s very hard to fault 28 Days Later as it rarely takes a mis-step. It’s got to be some of the best music I’ve ever heard in a movie. At other times the movie shows of the beauty as well, those moments of peace & tranquillity are some of the best in a frantic movie.4. For a person that lives here to see locations they know but devastated by the virus makes it a much more harrowing watch.
