If you’re an independent artist of any type, you’ll want to see this. At the beginning of the piece the film-maker states his point to project & what he wanted to explore — and over the course of the film I don’t feel that his interviewees proved, represented or developed his point … at all. However, the interviewees speak a lot about the passion behind their work and doing it successfully their way regardless of what “The Industry” indicates.
I came to own a copy of 28 Days Later by accident and I couldn’t be happier! My rating for this film is Green Ooze and it can be found on my list of BagpiperDon’s Favourite Zombie Movies.
While I won’t give away the ending to a film — and, in this case, I won’t give you the exact beginning either — but the film really starts when Jim, a bike-messenger, wakes up from a coma in an abandoned Emergency Room. He has to figure out the enigma of where everyone is, and what happened 28 days earlier after he got hit by a car in London. Zombie
This was my first introduction to Cillian Murphy and I’ve come to love his work. This was also my first introduction to Naomie Harris — who I’ve come to love … her work. You also get to see the work of the fabulous Brendan Gleeson. All together directed by Danny Boyle , 28 Days Later goes for your throat, your heart, and chases you down dark alleys of humanity.

This was the first time I saw fast moving zombies, and for me that really CRANKS UP the threat level — the shambling thing never really did it for me. Apparently the shamble-vrs-fast thing is a debate among zombie fans — and I can see both sides of it, but after seeing fast I think I know what side of the fence I fall on…
I’ve heard that the part-2 film “28 Weeks Later” is a warm-over of the original film, but I still want to see it. There is also a graphic novel or two out there that further tell the story which I’d like to get my hands and eyes on — so the next time you’re wondering what to get BagpiperDon for his birthday, Xmas, celebration of next album release, etc … now you know.
