28 days later could have been better

28 days later was a good film but it could have had a bit more gore in it there was not much in the way of it been a scary bits in it. there were a few good bits but not scary enough.

mbeach do you actually live in the UK?
When i first saw the film, in a cinema in the centre of london, where most of the film is set, i was scared as s*** cos i had just been walking through those places a minute ago. I even went into St Pauls, which is where Jim gets attacked first off. Also, about half way through the film, some guy that worked at the cinema actually was made up to look like an infected, with glowing red eyes and all. He ran through the cinema and scared everyone in the audience s***less

I disagree, I don't think it could have been better.

i think that 28 days later is like the least improvable film ever.
it has brutal, fast combat scenes, as you would try to make them in that situation, and the lack of gore is because ' a man can be transformed by a single drop of blood'; so obviously you wouldn't want loads flying around everywhere would you?

the only thing i really disagree with from this film is when they decide to change the tire in the tunnel. if i was them and i had a ****ing flat my ass is drving on the rim...end of story.

but i would agree that the movie was shot very well and the story was a classic zombie tale but different.

if anything i would have loved to see the alternate ending, the one where the military is not in it at all.

true, but i think they wanted to avoid damaging the car further.
i mean they could have stolen another, but its a film.

I agree with eggmayo's first reply - it was pretty freaky, since when was Westminster Bridge ever so empty?! I have NEVER seen it empty, I live walking distance from it!

I found it pretty freaky psychologically when the infected pissed off people were zombying their way through the tunnel

What alternate ending without the military?

I seen an alternate ending at one of the preview screenings after the credits awhile back. The soldiers are still in it and all that shite, the only difference is it isn't a happy ending with the plane, whats his name isn't revived and the two chicks exit the hospital never knowing about the plane and the infected's starvation and so forth.

I never heard of an alternate ending without the military.

And i loved this movie, i don't think anything needs improvement, one of the top movies of all time.

great movie IMO compared to all these new modern horror movies.

the one that they never filmed. DVD extras. i thought that would work better than the military crap.

and about the car thing... im sorry but when i watch a realistic movei like 28 days later i expect the characters to make sensable decisions.

It wasnt great... nor was it bad. 😱

Heh. Your asking for realism from a movie, which claims a disease is magically bred by a bunch of monkeys watching violent images on T.V.

well i cant say that story is believable. but if it was i am not gonna sit in a tunnel changing a ****ing tire while crazy ****ers are after me. i have driven on the rim before andi didnt have crazy raging people after me. so they can do it too. 😠
that whole scenario was just to add suspense, and that is one of my worst pet peeves when watching a horror movie. i expect the character to do what is necessary to survive. and changing a ****ing tire is not one of them!!!!!

the music in that scene is good though

i dont remember it...ermm

yeah i got the soundtrack of kazaa

Of course it could have been better, there's no such things as the perfect movie, no matter what ppl think

The scene was there to add suspense (and how!) if it were a realistic film he would never have gotten out of the hospital to begin with, the cab driver and his daughter couldn't have possibly have set up such a stronghold in the tower block and when the bloke tells the story of how his family went to the airport there is no concievable way he could have gotten down from that kiosk to escape the airport safely.
