28 Days Later

I loved the direction. A unique style and very fascinating shooting. Story is slow and not that enthusiastic as I was expecting.

What good things can I say about this movie that hasn’t been said already. Watching it, then watch 28 Weeks Later and 28 Years Later.

'28 Days Later' is ace! As someone who adores 'The Walking Dead', this was always going to be something to enjoy; it does play out like a TWD storyline, hitting every beat that you'd see in that show - only a good thing. How about that cast list, by the way? Cillian Murphy. Naomie Harris. Brendan Gleeson. Christopher Eccleston. All of them play their part, obviously Murphy is the main man but Harris and Gleeson are very good in their respective roles. The direction of Eccleston's character is blatant, but nevertheless entertaining. The visuals are the most impressive element away from those aforementioned, particularly the locational stuff across London; even more so when reading about how they did it behind the scenes. The effects for the dead are also done well, placed amongst a solid score.

A Haunting Journey Through Silence and Survival 28 Days Later isn’t just a zombie film — it’s an intense, slow-burning journey that builds tension through atmosphere more than jump scares. The opening scene, with Jim wandering a deserted London to eerie music, immediately stands out. It’s iconic, not just for its visual emptiness, but for the helplessness it evokes. The film’s digital video look is a bold stylistic choice. While it doesn’t always elevate each scene, it adds to the gritty realism and never distracts from the story. The horror here doesn’t come from the infected alone but from the breakdown of human morality — especially in the later sections with the soldiers. Selena is a standout character from the start — grounded, resilient, and unpredictable. Jim’s arc grows gradually, culminating in a strong turning point when he reclaims agency through violence. Though not traditionally scary, the film’s intensity creeps in as it progresses. Some parts — especially the empty city and Jim’s revenge — still hold up today, though other moments may feel less impactful in 2025’s horror landscape. Sum up - You might not recommend it to just anyone, but for someone dipping their toes into post-apocalyptic horror without diving into full-blown gore or dread, 28 Days Later still earns its place.

This movie is still very good, it aged well.

This movie is an absolute blast. Gritty, relentless, and unapologetically post-apocalyptic—it delivers everything you’d hope for in a zombie flick and then some. I especially loved the choice to shoot in standard definition; it gives the whole film a raw, unrefined edge that totally fits the vibe. If you’re looking for something intense and unfiltered, fire this one up—you won’t be disappointed.

What a great movie experience! 🧟🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

28 DAYS LATER is a classic, not only as an early revival of the zombie genre, but as a nuanced dystopian thriller. The film manages to feel both indie and big-budget at the same time, and skillfully balances moments of horror and humanity. Some of the relationships are a little flat, including the love interest, but overall the film's economy and intensity remain impressive and impactful.

It' s what youd expect a zombie horror film to be - but more fun and creative.
