28 Days Later

Thats basaclly (sp) it.

straying off topic, lets get back on, 28 days later, scary at all or no?

Sorry. It wasn't scary really, just the idea was scary. Nicely twisted seeing the whole of London deserted. And the way you could get infected so easily was nice, but i guess thats the same as any zombie film.
What's the scariest film you've seen?

the shining is the only movie that ever scared me. a few movies have kinda disturbed me.... henry portrait of a serial killer, irreversible, kids, happiness, last house on the left, cannibal holocaust, texas chainsaw massacre. not all of these are horror, but they all affected me very heavily

Yep, the Shinning is the only film thats really messed me up aswell. I much prefer deeply distrurbing pyscological horror to splat fest. Don't get me wrong though, I never tire of watching Braindead, but thats more comedy than horror.
Texas CM gets to me aswell.
Have you seen the ring? I've not got round to it yet, heard mixed reports, and aparently the original jap version is much better?

Got bored to death watcing the shinning! had heard so many good things that it was a big disapointement! happens alot! I liked the tv mini-series best. probably because the scriped was writen by stephen king himself!🙂

well kids never shocked me

I usualy only get shocked with documentaries

yeh real life stuff! Or how cruel humans can be! The ones about the holocaust (sp) are the most powerful!

that miniseries was horrid. it was so cheezy. the plants come to life 😂 steven king should stick with books, he cant write a script to save his life.

dont recall plants coming to life. but the movie was slow! nicholson is the only good thing in it!

The previews do look rather fun, although the reviews have been pretty bad.

Funny how it opens next week but you can get the DVD at Virgin Megastore😕

its been out in the uk for like 9 years.

lol its acually like 6 or 9 months 😛
but its great tex, you should see it.

saw it the other day. It was pretty good and def got me to jump a few times. And the zombies or infected ppl are fast real fast!

Yeah it isnt scary as hell, but it is still scary. The movie is brilliant

masterpiece. best horror movie of the best 15 years.

I love the scene in the biginning with the car! lol I jumped a foot! 😂
The church scene is also really cool. I was like:"Run you idiot!!!"😛

I am not impressed with 28 Days Later. The scenes were flashes of incoherent violence and the backdrops were obviously fake. There were so many horror cliches (non-starting car, going into the underground tunnel, man and woman living). My biggest question is how, within a matter of 3 days, the protagonist went from a squirmy scared sissy to a full-blown rambo.

I will stay to the truth- nothing has been scary since The Exorcist except Signs or The Ring.

the ring and signs are not scary. neither is exorcist. and its pretty much impossible to do anything unique when it comes to horror these days, you cant help but spot a cliche in every horror movie after 1985. i have no problem with cliches as long as it makes good use of them, as 28 days later did. no horror movie has been so emotionally involving or had such a heavy commentary on the human condition. and as far as the guy turning into rambo, ever heard of adrenaline? if someone you love is in danger, you can do almost anything. plus the zombies were best ever.

the backdrops were fake? what are you talking about? The exorcist scary?? I was 12 the 1st time i saw it and laught my head off! And signs?? I like it but its not scary. I like the ring, i dont think its scary per-say its more like it makes you think for a while.
