I did! I did! I did!
Couldn't figure out what it was about though. The trailer was perfect in the sense that it didn't reveal much.

Saw it a while back... first half is better than last half. As far as recent British Horror is concerned, I preferred Dog Soldiers.
Premise is very simple, Rex. Guy is in an accident, gets knocked into a coma, wakes up 28 days later to find that London is completely deserted. Except for the killer zombies, obviously.

Yes, looks very creepy. Sort of take off of "Day of the Comet" though.
(I think that what it was called)

Dawn of the Dead is the best zombie flick! I liked Resident Evil too. 28 Days Later COULD be really awesome if they don't go hollywood style. Which, of course, would make the movie suck gay monkey balls.

I don't think it will be Hollywood style. If anything, it will be creepy-shocking-scary-pants wetting-awesome-totally narly style.

I've seen 28 days later and it's a pretty good film.
It's not really a zombie film. Some activists released some monkeys from a lab but the monkeys were infected by a disease the scientist at the lab called "Rage".
People who get infected lose there senses after a while.
A guy who was in a hospital with the door locked survives but hasn't eaten anything for days and doesn't know what has happened to the world. It's pretty scary to see London deserted the way they show it at the beginning of the film. It was really disturbing when the guy who ran from the hospital was yelling "Hello!!" but nobody would listen.
The music in the film was great. There's a song of one of my favorite bands "Gdospeed you black emperor!" but the whole soundtrack is excellent.
Anyway as he wanders through the city he starts to meet some infected and he also runs into some survrivors. He learns to become a survivor himself with his new friends.
They lose some friends here and there but the ending is pretty nice.
Don't miss it!

The idea of the movie is scary because it is very possible.Go see it I really liked it but it is not really scary, just makes your heart beat faster in a few scenes! lol
But if you are a nitpick it has a very big plot hole! Well just enjoy it, I liked it and think it's very good!

28 days later was voted british film of the year in the empire movie awards. I thought that it was the best horror in years. Not your typical zombie movie, this film was made on a shoestring and still delivers. I agree with Kes, you can nitpick but why bother. It was directed by Danny Boyle who did trainspotting, so it's pretty gritty and look out for Brendan Gleeson, he's superb.

You seem like a big horror buff, word of advice, it is not that scary.It's a good movie, it makes your heart beat faster a few times but mainly it's the idea thats creappy!Because, like I said before, it is very possible. But dont expect a very scary movie! t is not a movie about zombies either!

Is it STILL not out in the US yet? Blimey, it's been about eight months since I saw it now.
As I have said before, I liked it but the first half was better than the last; I preferred Dog Soldiers.
