 28 Weeks Later (DVD)
Description: Genre: Horror / DVD released 10 September, 2007 at Fox International / Features of the DVD: Anamorphic, PAL / Put that ... more  28 Weeks Later (DVD) ... cynical look away, because the critics were right. 28 Weeks Later really is a sequel that delivers, that expands on the original, and in many ways even surpasses it. Faithful in many ways to the enjoyable, if derivative, 28 Days Later, this sequel sees original director Danny Boyle (who went off to make Sunshine instead) replaced by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo behind the camera(director of the excellent Spanish film Intacto). And Fresnadillo is an inspired choice, putting together a film that’s not bereft of flaws of its own, but one that proves to be an ambitious and surprisingly thought-provoking follow-up. Many of the building blocks are the same. Primarily set over six months after the Rage virus engulfed Britain, turning many of its inhabitants into deadly zombie-esque creatures in the process, the film this time though sees the American military arrive to help sort things out. Only things quickly go wrong, allowing Fresnadillo to mould a pacey, exciting and desperately enjoyable action carnival, that’s got a little more under the surface. Grounded by Robert Carlyle as one of the survivors of the virus, replete with his kids in tow, 28 Weeks Later skilfully navigates the labyrinth of sequel hell and really, really delivers. What’s more, it opens up the enticing possibility of a further sequel, and on the evidence of this film, that’s a very welcome thought. 28 Weeks Later, like its predecessor, isn’t a film for the faint-hearted, and wholesome family entertainment it absolutely isn’t. But it’s a very good, energetic horror movie, and far, far better than you might've originally given it credit for. --Jon FosterNewest Review: ... about this follow up to 28 days later, but i absolutely loved it, and was once again totally captivated and taken right into ... more ... the zombie-infested world that was playing before me on the screen.
The film opens up in a remote cottage where the character Don (Robert Carlyle) and his wife Alice (played by Catherine McCormick) are hiding out. They are sharing with four other people, and are basically trying to make ends meet.
They sit down for a meal when suddenly there is knocking and the screams of a child. After hurried debate, they allow the child to enter, and before you know it.... yes, that's right, zombie's are a coming!!

The new millennium has been pretty thin on the ground for great movies but has seen a fun revival of the zombie genre, the excellent remakes of the Romero cult classics an example of. The Brits came up with the hilarious spoof of from Pegg, Frost and Edgar with the enjoyable Shaun of the Dead and it was left to the great Danny Boyle to match the Yanks for neck biting, limb munching, offal flying chaos with 28 Days Later. Although Edgar’s sequel wasn’t to be, Boyles was with the excellent 28 Weeks Later, his pandemic virus once again raging across London. The virus synopsis makes it unofficially a zombie movie as you can get it without dying but I’m sure it counts as ...

Directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo and Produced by Andrew Macdonald, Enrique Lopez-Lavigne and Allon Reich. Starring Robert Carlyle, Catherine McCormack, Jeremy Renner,Idris Elba and Rose Bryne This sequel to the 2002 hit '28 days later' is a must see for horror fans. Released in 2007 this movie is as good as the first, if not better. The infected in England have all died out so the USA, as they do, have offered to repopulate the UK by letting the refugee brits, who fled to safety in the first film, back into a small cordened off area in central London, heavily gaurded by American military. Don,(actor Robert Carlisle?) ...

28 weeks later is a fast paced zombie film for fans of big brother generation. The film has nothing to do with big brother, I, merely want to state the age group for this film, which I believe is 35 and under. You may have heard of another film with number 28 in it. 28 days, well this is unsurprisingly sequel and it picks up the story 28 weeks later. Much of London was decimated by the rage shown by the 'infected', you know the zombies that roamed the streets of our believed capital city in 28 days. Zombies are dead, American soldiers are deployed to open a safe zone for the uninfected, people without bloodshot eyes. Don (Robert Carlyle) is one of ...
