Do a kill count of Star Wars IV: A New Hope And to make it easier on you which may be a spoiler but who cares I'M saying it anyways. The Empires destroyed a planet named Alderann which had a population of 2billion ± people of unknown genders And the Death Star from A new Hope had 1,206,293 people of also unknown genders the rest is easy enough to count
I saw this and the ring when I was 13 years old and it shaped my love for horror for so many years. To this day I consider 28 Days Later one of my favorite movies ever!
Fun fact: Garland actually wrote a screenplay for a live action Halo Combat Evolved film that was going to be an R rated sci fi action horror movie as the developers of the game were very impressed with 28 days later and believed he could make a suspenseful portrayal of a zombie enemy group from the games known as the flood which was already pretty scary in the game.
I adore this movie and I love that Selina is portrayed the way she is - that even in a world surrounded by rage monsters it's still actual people out to hurt you so you need someone like her who won't flinch.
Ironically, it was her hesitation and inability to "not flinch" that stopped her from killing Jim in the scene where he saves her. If she had kept her merciless attitude until the very end, Jim woulda been dead
Besides, she's strong and capable despite being feminine, something that speaks out for feminism way better than anything we got today. She could confront the imminent treat of r*pe as best as she could, even trying to protect the girl as well
I know that copyright issues have been tough (especially in recent times), but we always appreciate how you guys stick it out to give us amazing content! Thank you to everyone on the team for giving us the amazing content!
i have nothing else to say other than Christopher Eccleston is one of my favourite actors and it hurts me how criminally underrated his every performance is. He's absolutely fantastic.
@@plumwings2644Absolutely. The bitter, haunted side of the Doctor he added while still keeping it funny where appropriate definitely shaped the portrayal of the next three Doctors
Frank's death always haunted me to no end. For a stupid mistake he dies within seconds. What's more tragic, if anything, is that in the final fight at the soldiers' outpost it was pouring down mad. It means, if the four of them stayed in the apartments the movie would've been much, much shorter and Frank would still be alive. He took a risk for everyone's sake and he paid the highest toll... 😢
Not necessarily. It's about 200 miles between Manchester and London. It could quite easily be pouring down rain in Manchester but not further south in London.
I thought it was awful. Suddenly he becomes a ninja with no background of combat. It didn’t fit the narrative of the pace and realism the whole movie introduced.
Thanks for covering this! 28 Days Later is absolutely one of those movies that has changed horror forever, and it’s always good to see its legacy respected.
I love 28 days later because it actually creeps me out more than any other zombie movie. You know that its good when one of the most popular shows copies the start of the movie
@@stephengrigg5988the movie(28 days later) came out a few weeks before the walking dead in the UK, but 28 days later in the US came out after the walking dead. its purely coincidental.
@@stephengrigg5988the comic came out in 2003, just a few months after the American release of the film. Robert Kirkman had written the beginning of the walking dead before seeing the movie. It really was just a crazy coincidence
It is so sad for sure, so preventable. The preventable part is the saddest, what that girl goes through is hard. However this is a part of it that made it great. Seeing what happens to him thus setting off the finale of human nastiness and hope for the future ultimately.
I always thought the people that were dead in the church were just infected that had already died from starvation/exposure. The implication is that infected tend to hide from sunlight. Thats why one of the rules salena and mark tell jim is "never go out after dark unless you've got no choice" I always took that to mean infected tend to be mostly active at night. Which is why we almost always see attacks in the evenings or indoors
As someone who lives in Scotland I really appreciate the way this is shot, the camcorder esque filming really strikes a chord with the way the world was at the time, tying in with the theme of “social rage” and nothing too over the top, very relatable
@B'stard Ted Cruz yeah but the thing us you find nothing on it unless you absolutely look, a film this good should show up whenever you search of even the most basic thing
I watched this movie with my dad when I was 12. I was traumatized for years, and literally every dark spot or corner I would 100 check. Of course my dad was laughing, but it wasn’t until 16 years old where I was like those actors are having fun and yet I was scared. Ever since I just rewatch the movie every year to feel the nostalgia. How fast 12 years went by.
28 Days didn't bother me. 28 weeks later did. Still have nightmares of it. Well one in the last year. 28 Weeks later has probably one of the best intros in movie cinema IMO. Also the theme song for this and weeks is one of the best. Still waiting for the third one.
I love the undercurrent of surrealism in this movie, like that scene in the country side where all the flowers look like they're from a watercolor painting.
Basically if I'm not wrong, this is the film that popularized running zombies. Literally almost every other film wanted running zombies after that. Also, it has a killer soundtrack too!
@@0sAndOnes They had both, if I'm not mistaken. From what I remember, the oldest zombies (as the one in cryostasis in the beginning of the movie) move the slowest. Fresh zombies killed in a not so gruesome way move the fastest (meaning, they weren't torn apart by the horde thus getting their dead bodies in decent conditions to run) Even taxidermy dogs were revived. That toxic gas and people were getting deathly sick from it. It was my first zombie movie I watched and it got me terrified by the impending doom that gas had going. They eventually nuked the city (in Umbrella fashion) but the after credits scene show the nuke cloud mixing with that gas, making radioactive rain and spreading that zombie toxin nationwide.
@@ruffusgoodman4137 Dude Return was my first Zombie movie too..... remember it says "based on a true story"? Well I just so happened to live in the city the movie takes place.
This movie just confirmed my idea that if there ever was a zombie apocalypse, I’d wanna end it myself and not even try. Yeah the zombies are scary but some of the humans left behind are far worse!
Yeah. Like I lost my family, I can't participate in anything I love, and it's INSANELY difficult to NOT die. I'mma find the nearest pool/body/whatever of water and take a deep breath.
This movie has a very special place in my heart. When I was a teenager me and some of my friends at the time were absolutely obsessed about it, we watched it almost every weekend drinking beers and having a blast. I remember listening to the soundtrack, playing "in the house, in a heartbeat" on my guitar or listening to covers, joking with my mates using dialogues from the film, drawing portraits of the characters, reading the comics (the Aftermath and the Selena one) searching prehistoric youtube (2009-10) for deleted scenes, alternative final scenes and even home made videos about the film or inspired by it. The sequel was absolutely fantastic too. Sadly we never got a third film...still waiting after all these years
Can we just shout-out how James puts his other priorities ahead of videos? It's honestly extremely refreshing to see. Life should always come before work.
I've met cillian Murphy twice in the last 2 weeks while working on a film set, he's the most down to earth famous person I've met. I've also met Brendan gleeson a few times over the last few years
the scene in the chapel when the zombies turn around gives me chills, the appartment scenes where its cozy inside and they have to collect water on the roof really gives that apocalyptical feeling. And the light hearted supermarket scene. This movie was great
It’s nice to see Cillian Murphy get his flowers. I hope Oppenheimer is the epic masterpiece to get him all the awards. Edit: He got it! Best actor let’s go!!!!!
When I wasn’t allowed to watch horror movies directly, I would always binge watch these episodes as a alternative. These were always quite enjoyable. My favorite is the hide and seek one where the girl dies if she gets caught
I love "In the House, in a Heartbeat" and this movie as a whole. I never noticed how distinctive the editing style is until I saw it recreated for the "to the numbers" bit. Excellent work as always to the Dead Meat team!
He isa great actor. I loved him even more in sunshine. Both amazing movies, borh danny boyle (spelling???). I laugh about his role a quiet place 2 because his role is such a stereotypical ideal american. Preatty much the best part of qp2.
I still remember Selena hacking Mark as probably the scariest scene in the entire movie. He was their friend, they weren't sure if he was infected, so seeing Selena kill him while he's still conscious along with his howls of fear and pain (and seeing his arm chopped off) really unnerved me. It was so cold and brutal. Also, thank you Dead Meat for making me realize Naomi Harris also played Chiron's mother in the movie, Moonlight at 8:54. She KILLED that role.
She and Danny Boyle came up with a backstory for Selena to explain why she was so cold and merciless. They decided that she'd had to kill her whole family in one afternoon, killing both her mother and father in the hopes of saving her baby brother, only to find that he was infected too. Knowing that adds so much to why Frank's death hits her the way it does, and why she looks out for Hannah.
This movie, oh this movie. This movie gave me an anxiety I've never felt watching a movie. I genuinely never felt safe while watching it and that's damn effective.
Seeing you guys do 28 days later is amazing to me. This is one of my favorite horror movies since i saw it in highschool. The way they used the camera filter to the crazy way infected people looked while running was always so captivating to me
28 days later is one of my favorite zombie movies ever, as well as 28 weeks later, they're almost perfect movies that really change the zombie sub-genre in horror movies
My mom watched this with my dad when she was pregnant with me. When I finally watched it myself for the first time I wasn't scared for a second, and it's still one of my all time favorite movies. Thanks mom!
Same here omg! My family watched it when my mom was pregnant- they said the movie was so loud and that they think that’s why I’m scared of loud noises now 😅still one of my favorite movies ever though!
I remember this is one of the first horror movies I did a "deep dive" on. It was so amazing to me that they filmed the deserted London *in London* not on a sound stage
I am so glad you covered this James. I’m not normally unnerved by movies but this one managed to do it and I love it. There’s something so terrifying about a virus that can turn you not into an undead mess, but rather a bloodthirsty monster in less than a minute. The way it’s shot and the way there’s genuine fear makes it probably my favorite “zombie” movie.
The end sequence frightened me watching it as a teenager. The location, the music, the grainy footage, and the idea that the soldiers, strong together, are completely helpless once their ranks are broken. That and getting vomited into the face by Rage monsters…
"28 Days Later"(2002) is a horror movie masterpiece! This is one of the best and most scariest horror movies of all time for sure! The amazing soundtrack of the movie is atmospheric and very creepy!
@Mr. Mackey ohh dont worry bug , a lot of people think sarcasm is a great way to have fun ! I guess you view it as troll cause you dont get it maybe ! Have a great week-end too
This is my absolute favorite zombie movie, I'm so thrilled that James finally covered it. The soundtrack is phenomenal, still have a copy of it on CD from 20 years ago ❤️
Got to meet Hannah (Megan Burns) at a horror convention last year and she's so sweet! Said she was just proud to have been a part of something that's still loved today!
In the House, In a Heartbeat is such a perfect song, I hope it keeps being allowed to be reused. It's got the perfect amount of dread and build up to one of the most devastating scenes (like 28 Weeks Later) and can be used in so many situations.
it took me a while to get to 28 days later and 28 weeks later. I really love both the films, but 28 days is such a serious film that I found myself thinking about it more. They definitely jumped up the list of some of the best for me. Just like train to busan, this film actually has some emotional weight. Not only him losing his actual parents, but then losing Frank the man he started to see as a father. Also really love the full circle "Rage" theme by the end. Showing the protagonist portraying the same level of brutality as the infected. Yet it is those he is attempting to kill that are truly monstrous and evil or on the same morality level of the infected. Its also nice seeing one of Cillian Murphy's first works and he is great in the film.
It’s super interesting that Danny Boyle and naomie Harris would both work together for national theatres Frankenstein 9 years later. A very different experience
Just here to show James continued respect for shouting out Red Eye. Seriously though, if you guys haven’t seen that underrated Wes Craven gem, you really should watch it. So good!
Thank you for getting around that copyright and uploading this kill count We really appreciate your hard work ❤ Also I love 28 days later it's one of my favorite horror movies so glad to see you covering, it also I'm so hyped for the horror awards can't wait to watch it
one of my favourite films of all time. The simplicity of it all, and how the low quality cameras and simple close to home northern england setting just make it somehow unnerving and yet comforting too.
Fun fact: the plane at the end of this movie is a Finnish fighter jet and the only reason why I love this fact is because I am Finnish and I love seeing Finnish things in non-Finnish movies
I was looking for a comment about this! I'm also Finnish and it always caughts me off guard when movies have finnish in them because I don't expect it, and often my brain doesn't even register it as finnish at first 😂 But I'm always happy find Finnish things in non Finnish media. Torille!😂
omg I love that, I feel weirdly haunted by finnish things (I am not finnish) because it happens that a lot of things that I liked as a kid were finnish/have finnish stuff in them, lmao as a teen I loved this movie so much, good to know my finnish haunt keeps it up even here :D
It wasn’t until I watched Naomi Harris in the Bond films that I realized she was the female lead in this movie. Definitely one of my favorite Brendan Gleason performances. It was a nice switch up to his usually more serious characters. And Cillian Murphy killed it in this movie. I’m glad he went on to have such a stellar career.
Wes Craven's red eye is one of the most underrated horror movies around. It's a great movie but what makes it underrated is it feels like NO ONE has seen or remembers it. I've watched it for the first time with so many people.
This movie was influential af on me when I was a teen. One of the first horror movies I saw in theaters, and one of the best ever made. Thanks for the count!
I love the fun references you make in these videos. The Presidents of the United States of America "Peaches" song, and Sonya Blade from Mortal Kombat were two of my favorites.
I was 16 when I saw this at the theater.The visuals,the soundtrack …it has such an aesthetically pleasing vibe to it,so dreamy but terrifying at the same time.
Cillian Murphy is one of the most underrated actors out there, just look as his performances in Red Eye, The Dark Knight trilogy and Peaky Blinders, which i think Tommy is his best role yet, i hope he gets noticed by the Academy when Oppenheimer comes out
@@jorts_master69 loved him as Scarecrow too, but unfortunately he got sidelined by the following villans in the next movies like Ledger's Joker and Tom Hardy's Bane
While in the military and stationed at RAF Mildenhall. I was in Cambridge and going to see this unknown film called 28 Days Later. Before seeing this film, I was staying in London for the weekend. How the film opens up in Cambridge and him wondering empty London, making this epic film so real me.
Thank you guys for being a staple in my relationship for the last 4 years. I've introduced my girlfriend to the horror genre through this channel over the last 4 years, and she's as much as a buff as I am. I hope you can continue to do these videos, as I plan on being able to show my kids these one day, to show em what got us through the pandemic, financial crisis, joblessness and so much uncertainty, yet through it all, there was Dead Meat. Thank you.
My favorite zombie film of all time. I even found the short films recently and fell over all over again for this series, I hope they'll be a *28 months later* soon.🤞🏾😭🤞🏾
I am so thrilled that you covered this movie. I feel like it doesn't get nearly enough love, and it is easily in my (floating) top 10-20 movies of all time. Def up there as one of my fav horror movies. Thank you Dead Meat crew for covering this banger. Much love, Moose.
Hell yes! This is by far my favorite "zombie" movie. I loved it when I first saw it! So chilling and yet has moments of playfulness and hope set in a horribly dark world.

I've met cillian Murphy twice in the last 2 weeks while working on a film set, he's the most down to earth famous person I've met. I've also met Brendan gleeson a few times over the last few years
How was brendan ? Down to earth as well ?
the scene in the chapel when the zombies turn around gives me chills, the appartment scenes where its cozy inside and they have to collect water on the roof really gives that apocalyptical feeling. And the light hearted supermarket scene. This movie was great
It’s nice to see Cillian Murphy get his flowers. I hope Oppenheimer is the epic masterpiece to get him all the awards.
Edit: He got it! Best actor let’s go!!!!!
I dunno, his role as Scarecrow is where he truly shined
I think his best performance was Tommy in Peaky Blinders
Thanks to John Murphy for the riff
@@damianprock1650 Nah, he was SEVERELY underused in that role. He did NOT shine there. He was awesome though.
@Bzake i feel like Thomas is too “boring” tho, its not that emotional of a performance more of a tough guy
When I wasn’t allowed to watch horror movies directly, I would always binge watch these episodes as a alternative. These were always quite enjoyable. My favorite is the hide and seek one where the girl dies if she gets caught
I love "In the House, in a Heartbeat" and this movie as a whole. I never noticed how distinctive the editing style is until I saw it recreated for the "to the numbers" bit. Excellent work as always to the Dead Meat team!
Cillian Murphy is one of the most underrated actors alive and I hope Oppenheimer finally gets him his Oscar.
Him and John C. Reily deserve more credit.
He isa great actor. I loved him even more in sunshine. Both amazing movies, borh danny boyle (spelling???).
I laugh about his role a quiet place 2 because his role is such a stereotypical ideal american. Preatty much the best part of qp2.
I'm going ahead and guessing Oppenheimer is based on the Manhattan project. Don't know when it came out, but I haven't seen it yet.
@@keithgifford2386You'd be correct! It's coming out mid July if I remember correctly
Doesn’t the Walking Dead feel eerily similar to this film?!?
I still remember Selena hacking Mark as probably the scariest scene in the entire movie. He was their friend, they weren't sure if he was infected, so seeing Selena kill him while he's still conscious along with his howls of fear and pain (and seeing his arm chopped off) really unnerved me. It was so cold and brutal.
Also, thank you Dead Meat for making me realize Naomi Harris also played Chiron's mother in the movie, Moonlight at 8:54. She KILLED that role.
Naomi is a underrated actress, shame I don’t see her much in movies I see nowadays
@@jujubee_is_me Mark had a deep gash on his arm, and was absolutely covered in infected blood. He was a goner.
She and Danny Boyle came up with a backstory for Selena to explain why she was so cold and merciless. They decided that she'd had to kill her whole family in one afternoon, killing both her mother and father in the hopes of saving her baby brother, only to find that he was infected too. Knowing that adds so much to why Frank's death hits her the way it does, and why she looks out for Hannah.
@@BetterWithBob OOHH I love this!!
This movie, oh this movie. This movie gave me an anxiety I've never felt watching a movie. I genuinely never felt safe while watching it and that's damn effective.
James literally makes so many references to so many god damn things in the jokes he adds lol I just want him to know they don’t go unnoticed.
RIGHT and then i steal them hehehahh
Seeing you guys do 28 days later is amazing to me. This is one of my favorite horror movies since i saw it in highschool. The way they used the camera filter to the crazy way infected people looked while running was always so captivating to me
28 days later is one of my favorite zombie movies ever, as well as 28 weeks later, they're almost perfect movies that really change the zombie sub-genre in horror movies
They are great. Did you see Train to Busan? It's back on Prime right now.
My mom watched this with my dad when she was pregnant with me. When I finally watched it myself for the first time I wasn't scared for a second, and it's still one of my all time favorite movies. Thanks mom!
Same here omg! My family watched it when my mom was pregnant- they said the movie was so loud and that they think that’s why I’m scared of loud noises now 😅still one of my favorite movies ever though!
I remember this is one of the first horror movies I did a "deep dive" on. It was so amazing to me that they filmed the deserted London *in London* not on a sound stage
I am so glad you covered this James. I’m not normally unnerved by movies but this one managed to do it and I love it. There’s something so terrifying about a virus that can turn you not into an undead mess, but rather a bloodthirsty monster in less than a minute. The way it’s shot and the way there’s genuine fear makes it probably my favorite “zombie” movie.
The end sequence frightened me watching it as a teenager. The location, the music, the grainy footage, and the idea that the soldiers, strong together, are completely helpless once their ranks are broken. That and getting vomited into the face by Rage monsters…
Always had a huge crush on cillian Murphy and it’s insane how big he became in such iconic Hollywood movies
The more I watch it the higher I rate it. It feels real and believable which makes for good horror. Great music score also. Love it.
Real factor of the movie is fact they managed to convince the city to shut parts of it down to do the film and find ways to explain what has happened
"28 Days Later"(2002) is a horror movie masterpiece! This is one of the best and most scariest horror movies of all time for sure! The amazing soundtrack of the movie is atmospheric and very creepy!
Where can I watch it?
@@ScorpionStrike7You can probably find DVD copies of it at secondhand stores. That's how I got mine.
@@ScorpionStrike7 on a tv screen
It's not scary
@Mr. Mackey ohh dont worry bug , a lot of people think sarcasm is a great way to have fun ! I guess you view it as troll cause you dont get it maybe ! Have a great week-end too
Cillian Murphy is a wonderful actor👏
As a straight dude, I find him hot af
Agreed. I love him in everything I’ve seen him in and that’s a rare thing for actors.
I hope he gets his Oscar for Oppenheimer next year
IKR, especially when he played Scarecrow before
He is one great and underrated actor, my favorite performance of him is Tommy Shelby in Peaky Blinders
Always love the subtle changes in the background room each episode, like the 28 days later dvd in the background.
This is my absolute favorite zombie movie, I'm so thrilled that James finally covered it. The soundtrack is phenomenal, still have a copy of it on CD from 20 years ago ❤️
I Still To This Day Listen To "In The House In A Heartbeat" By John Murphey:D
I love this movie a lot but my favourite is world war z
I only watched this movie because it had gybe in it lol
Got to meet Hannah (Megan Burns) at a horror convention last year and she's so sweet! Said she was just proud to have been a part of something that's still loved today!
I absolutely love whenever James talks about the score, the written score pops up on screen. Keep this up if possible, such an awesome idea!
By score, you mean the current body count? He's been doing that since his very first kill counts, same graphics and everything.
@@Zyk0th no. Score as in music
@@sebchambers6055 Ah. My mistake. Probably helps get around copyright issues.
28 Days Later , Night of the Living Dead and Evil Dead were the most influential movies for my taste in the genre. Amazing ❤
I love how effortlessly you cram these with puns but it never gets old. That's some good writing.
Cillian Murphy is a criminally underrated actor.
I always forget that he was in this movie lol
Such a good actor, really exited to see him play as oppenheimer in the future.
He would make a great gangster and member of Parliament
No he isn't. peaky blinders has made like a billion dollars.
Underrated? whaat???
I'm so glad you covered this! I've always loved Danny Boyle's work and as a brit it's really nice to see British movies being given credit.
Welcome to Dead Meat British Brother 🤘🤘🤘🤘
we gotta appreciate how this guy always styles his cabinet for the theme he does a video on
In the House, In a Heartbeat is such a perfect song, I hope it keeps being allowed to be reused. It's got the perfect amount of dread and build up to one of the most devastating scenes (like 28 Weeks Later) and can be used in so many situations.
I frikkin love it. Listen to it all the time. Common to be on most playlists.
"Don't cut that razor on your cheekbones."
PEAK complimentary comedy!
Note to the entire Dead Meat Team: Don't ever change! 🤗🥰
it took me a while to get to 28 days later and 28 weeks later. I really love both the films, but 28 days is such a serious film that I found myself thinking about it more. They definitely jumped up the list of some of the best for me. Just like train to busan, this film actually has some emotional weight. Not only him losing his actual parents, but then losing Frank the man he started to see as a father. Also really love the full circle "Rage" theme by the end. Showing the protagonist portraying the same level of brutality as the infected. Yet it is those he is attempting to kill that are truly monstrous and evil or on the same morality level of the infected. Its also nice seeing one of Cillian Murphy's first works and he is great in the film.
28 days later is still one of my favorite zombie films with zombie land being a close second
The jokes, puns, and references in this one are elite. Had me chuckling the whole way through.
One of the best horror films of this century and certainly one of the most terrifying of my lifetime. And it had a really good sequel as well.
It’s super interesting that Danny Boyle and naomie Harris would both work together for national theatres Frankenstein 9 years later. A very different experience
It’s been years since I’ve watched this movie. I’m glad this got a kill count. A nice little trip down memory lane
Just here to show James continued respect for shouting out Red Eye. Seriously though, if you guys haven’t seen that underrated Wes Craven gem, you really should watch it. So good!
James seems like he's having a shit ton of fun in the "To the numbers" bits
This has always been one of my favorite horror movies. The beginning of the second movie is still one of the most terrifying scenes in any movie imo
26:29 james after being asked to review jeepers creepers for the 47th time
Thank you for getting around that copyright and uploading this kill count We really appreciate your hard work ❤ Also I love 28 days later it's one of my favorite horror movies so glad to see you covering, it also I'm so hyped for the horror awards can't wait to watch it
I agree with each word of this!
@@Omegalights thanks ♥️
@@padtrickkeys3261 👍😁
26:39 I'm watching with captions on and the *[James gets the zoomies]* took me out. Whoever is in charge of captions, I love you. 😂
28 days later and the evil dead are my 2 favorite horror movies, love that James recognized the similar visual grittiness they share.
one of my favourite films of all time. The simplicity of it all, and how the low quality cameras and simple close to home northern england setting just make it somehow unnerving and yet comforting too.
In a House-In a Heartbeat is by far still one of my most favorite scores from a movie.
Let's go man been waiting for this one for 5 years. The horror song is just amazing.
Now if only he’d do Dawn of the Dead (2004)
One of the best horror themes ever imo
Fun fact: the plane at the end of this movie is a Finnish fighter jet and the only reason why I love this fact is because I am Finnish and I love seeing Finnish things in non-Finnish movies
I was looking for a comment about this! I'm also Finnish and it always caughts me off guard when movies have finnish in them because I don't expect it, and often my brain doesn't even register it as finnish at first 😂 But I'm always happy find Finnish things in non Finnish media. Torille!😂
Nice
omg I love that, I feel weirdly haunted by finnish things (I am not finnish) because it happens that a lot of things that I liked as a kid were finnish/have finnish stuff in them, lmao
as a teen I loved this movie so much, good to know my finnish haunt keeps it up even here :D
James, I humbly ask you to count the kills in 28 weeks later
I love how even in his rage, James doesn't neglect his hair. Love you guys.
I always wondered how they did the London shots and you answered pretty much all of it in this video! Earns a like.
It wasn’t until I watched Naomi Harris in the Bond films that I realized she was the female lead in this movie. Definitely one of my favorite Brendan Gleason performances. It was a nice switch up to his usually more serious characters. And Cillian Murphy killed it in this movie. I’m glad he went on to have such a stellar career.
Wes Craven's red eye is one of the most underrated horror movies around. It's a great movie but what makes it underrated is it feels like NO ONE has seen or remembers it. I've watched it for the first time with so many people.
This movie was influential af on me when I was a teen. One of the first horror movies I saw in theaters, and one of the best ever made. Thanks for the count!
I love the fun references you make in these videos. The Presidents of the United States of America "Peaches" song, and Sonya Blade from Mortal Kombat were two of my favorites.
All the dead meat uploads are the best part of the week
28 days later is a classic, it's definitely one of the best films in the zombie genre
21:58 Ironically Cillian Murphy played Scarecrow in the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight trilogy
This was the one that got me into horror movies. It was scary, but thoughtful as well and I loved it. Also, Cillian Murphy
Who DC fans know as Scarecrow
I was 16 when I saw this at the theater.The visuals,the soundtrack …it has such an aesthetically pleasing vibe to it,so dreamy but terrifying at the same time.
Imagine forgetting to tell the fire department that you're about to intentionally set a building on fire lol
Cillian Murphy is one of the most underrated actors out there, just look as his performances in Red Eye, The Dark Knight trilogy and Peaky Blinders, which i think Tommy is his best role yet, i hope he gets noticed by the Academy when Oppenheimer comes out
God how I wish he got more respect in the Dark Knight trilogy, his rendition of Scarecrow was criminally underused
@@jorts_master69 loved him as Scarecrow too, but unfortunately he got sidelined by the following villans in the next movies like Ledger's Joker and Tom Hardy's Bane
Lmao at the “no rain in england” line
Naomie Harris was absolutely phenomenal in this
I love her
While in the military and stationed at RAF Mildenhall. I was in Cambridge and going to see this unknown film called 28 Days Later. Before seeing this film, I was staying in London for the weekend. How the film opens up in Cambridge and him wondering empty London, making this epic film so real me.
I remember one of my old roomates was trying to find an HD version of this movie just to realize that the movie just looks the way it is lol
Thank you guys for being a staple in my relationship for the last 4 years. I've introduced my girlfriend to the horror genre through this channel over the last 4 years, and she's as much as a buff as I am. I hope you can continue to do these videos, as I plan on being able to show my kids these one day, to show em what got us through the pandemic, financial crisis, joblessness and so much uncertainty, yet through it all, there was Dead Meat. Thank you.
My favorite zombie film of all time. I even found the short films recently and fell over all over again for this series, I hope they'll be a *28 months later* soon.🤞🏾😭🤞🏾
I am so thrilled that you covered this movie. I feel like it doesn't get nearly enough love, and it is easily in my (floating) top 10-20 movies of all time. Def up there as one of my fav horror movies. Thank you Dead Meat crew for covering this banger. Much love, Moose.
Hell yes! This is by far my favorite "zombie" movie. I loved it when I first saw it! So chilling and yet has moments of playfulness and hope set in a horribly dark world.
Next to the *Resident Evil* movies, right?
@@damianprock1650 all the resident evil movies fail to be anything but mediocre, even the animated ones
@GribbleGob I wouldn't put money on that, they were awesome in a way
literally one of my favorite horror movies. Thank you so much for doing this. 👍
I have never heard of it
I've never heard of this movie before lmao, but if everyone says its good then I might stop studying for my exam to watch this video hahah
@EPIC Films 4 life yeah I'm done trolling liberals for the day. Time to settle in and watch some videos online.
@@zombiekillergman7321 sad life
@@zombiekillergman7321 “I’m done trolling liberals for the day, so allow me to un whined by watching a TH-cam video made by a liberal” -your clueless ass
This is a kill count I was not expecting but am super pumped about!!!!!
