When I heard that this was coming out, I was expecting the best sequal ever so much. The original is arguably THE zombie master piece but the sequel involved almost none of the original minds that brought us the stark terror of "28 Days Later", which combined the threats of disease and it's deadly effects on the mind which caused those infected by what became known as the "Rage Virus" to viciously and relentlessly attack the uninfected, either killing the victim or spreading the disease. A sequel had potential of course, and I expected it to be not as good as the first. Boy, was I wrong. People I spoke to said that the first film was boring for the first twenty minutes; I disagree, and thought it was great but thats me but that issue has been addressed nonetheless. The beginning of 28 weeks later flashes back to another group of people during the first outbreak. Their fate is one you won't forget; it is chaotic, terrifying, dramatic, hopeless, and heartbreaking, all within one fairly short chain of events. That's when I knew this film was going to be the best ever sequal to the first one and was going to be everything I wished it would be and it never let me down. This film is epic and personal, gruesome yet thrilling and exciting sit on the edge horror entertaiment that you want, and it manages to give you everything you want, even when you had no clue that you wanted it. The evolution of the Rage Virus is a fascinating one in that it manages to outlive the death of all of the infected who all starved because they ate everybody by lying in a rare gene that allows some people to be carriers of the virus without succumbing to it's effects. The result: even kissing your wife could be the deadly for a new, outbreak. The story starts after 28 weeks after the infection dies and the US military is overseeing the repopulation of London; or a district of London to be precise sector 1. Every step is taken to ensure that the virus that was the infection that wiped Great Britain's population clean off the earth is not repeated. Naturally, the virus finds a way. As the new population of sector 1 run and try to escape from the compromised quarantine and the murderous zombies, there is an amazing and most thrilling scene where the rooftop snipers are frantically trying to distinguish the civilians from the infected as they run down a typical london street. The chaos and hopelessness of the situation are visable to them and as the camera shows us through a soldier's scope just what he is up against in somewhat fashion. The way that these situations of large-scale human terror are turned into personal struggles is what makes this movie a thrilling classic to watch again and again in my mind where it otherwise would have been just another great horror film. There is plenty more scenes of deserted London that bring back memories of the first film. Another brilliant touch. And the final shot of the film, while not unexpected, is one that will chill you to the bone make your hairs stand on end and thrill you at the same time. This is an absolute thrill of a ride take-no-prisoners film, and a work of terror that must be viewed by all professing to be hard core horror fans you will love this I DID. xxxRead full review
