Movie Review: 28 Weeks Later (2007)

tonight's feature: 28 Weeks Later (2007) on HBOMax

night 13 #31NightsofHalloween

28 Weeks Later may have a few plot holes the size of the lincoln tunnel, but if you just ignore them, you still have an exhilarating and effective action-zombie movie.

rage virus zombies are way more terrifying than your traditional walking dead zombies. for one, they run faster than you and two, if you get bitten you have approximately 45 seconds before you turn. on the plus side, they're technically not dead and eventually starve to death.

near the end of the movie i thought we had another hour left, but it turned out it was only 5 minutes. i take that as a sign the movie was really working for me that i expected more. at the very end i got kind of bummed out they hadn't done a sequel, but then i read they were talking about one only a few years ago, so it could still happen. did i like it better than the first movie? almost, but i will need to rewatch the original to be sure. 8.5 code red alerts out of 10.
