"28 Days Later"

Anyone seen this? I would search for some 28 Days Later topics.. But I can't be bothered. Hm.

Got this in the post today on DVD from Brittania. It's still unopened because I wasn't sure whether to send it back or keep it.

So.. Have you seen it? Any good? Worth opening and keeping?!

I am thinking about getting it on the DVD not sure yet

Saw this today, liked it a lot. The shots of London deserted were just eerie.

*SPOILERS*

I thought the alternate ending on the DVD, the one where Jim dies and the two girls walk off down the hospital corridor, would have made for a better ending, although the storyboarded one was a bit crap. Kudos to Danny Boyle and Alex Garland for actually reading the characters voices to accompany the pictures though.

And did anyone notice the similarity in the alternate ending of Selena's red dress to the one worn by Milla Jovovich in Resident Evil? I haven't seen it, but on the cover of the DVD (or poster or something) she's half-wearing this red dress and holding a machine gun, just like Selena's character at the end. Just wondered if that was intentional.

The Rage. Scary stuff.

Saw this film earlier - Thought it was great. One of the best horrors Ive seen in a while!

Ooh, tell me what happens on the alternate endings.

It was necessary!! =D
Nah, I thought the ending was a bit silly. I can't remember the ending properly now because I watched the alternate ones on the dvd extras. But it was stupid anyway..

By that, I mean psychologically things get very messed up.

And where you see the guys nads at the start is very unneccessary. I dare you to argue with me on that :D

Awful film. Starts nice but very quickly descends into a very typical horror/thriller film which seems to try and only differentiate itself from other 'zombie' films by having the 'zombies' be able to run as opposed to just stagger with their arms outstretched.

Reminded me a bit of The Last Train on ITV a good few years ago. Not really the same thing but there are a lot of similarities and, as poor as that was, it's much better than this tripe.

Watched it. Not a bad film at all.. I don't think I'd call it 'scary'. Just .. creepy?!

Good film though. I think I'll be having nightmares now though of the people running.. I HATE the way they ran.. Argh :(

You can send opened dvds back to Britannia?! Do they charge?

Its not exactly f-d up at all
