That church scene is everything, the way they stare at Jim is so damn freaky
Frank saying ‘I love you very much’ to his daughter before he goes always brings a tear to my eye. Not many horror movies have that emotional impact.
What really hit me was the fact that if he waited just a few more seconds they would’ve been fine. Reminds me a bit of the ending to the mist movie
@@DraulBall I don't think that's necessarily true. It's obvious that the military unit was already in position. They wanted females, not 2 more men/competition/threats. I think they only stepped in because their chance at 2 women was about to be destroyed. If Frank hadn't gotten infected blood in his eye, I'm certain that the soldiers would have found another way to take out Frank and Jim.
@@nicoleheppner6431good point :)
@@nicoleheppner6431 If that was actually the case then they may as well of just waited a bit longer to see if he was quick enough to cut him down before he got bit anyway so I dunno, don't really agree with you there
Train To Busan has entered the chat.
You guys are one of my favorite reaction channels/peoples. You're genuine and don't fall into the clickbait/screenshot trap that a lot of other channels tend to go for. You're also not loud and constantly trying to be MST3K every minute. You laugh at the funny parts, cry at the sad parts, gasp at the scary parts and have a good analysis after the movie. Other channels seem to over do the "reaction" to get more views. Glad there are still honest reactions like yours that I can enjoy.
Agreed. There's two reaction channels specifically I thought of when you wrote that. Won't name them but they're more focused on doing shtick than taking in the movie.
@@Xervello Reaction channels are a dime a dozen now a days.
basically one of the few reaction channels i still watch regularly at this point, because of that honesty. other people are either too flat/dull, too eager to show off their entry-level film knowledge, too into doing bad comedy, or waaaaay too performative/phony. (there are a couple channels in particular that always get recommended to me, and just from the thumbnails it's like...i'm never watching that.)
Thank you for the kind words!
@@slugerama True. Which isn't a bad thing, necessarily, if it leads to better personalities/analysis. Some reactors are good at one show or one type of movie and bad at everything else. However, this channel and a handful of others are consistently enjoyable across the board. To each their own, I guess.
7:27 That note his parents left is one of the saddest things ever! 😭😭
probably because it's relatively realistic
facts
right? especially the serious "Don't wake up."
A movie that reinvented the zombie genre a decade before the 2010's zombie boom where everything was "zombies" I still respect it for trying something new
I feel like this was the first time I ever saw fast "zombies" and realized how much worse that would be. Then I want to say the Dawn of the Dead remake in 2004 was the next "big" zombie movie? I've always loved the zombie genre, as massively overdone as it is, and this was one of my favorite movies for years.
@@robertcampbell8070 Fast Zombies that can climb things, taking over the planet makes sense. How can slow walking sh*t can take over the world in The Walking Dead still baffles me.
@@rikumajumder1558 that's the dumbest comment ever!!!! They literally show it a million times in TWD of how Zombie's take over everything regardless if they move slow or fast because in "The Walking Dead" world & just like all other zombie films ever made , people don't know what the fuck a fuckin zombie even is because they didn't exist before the outbreaks occured obviously & also because they are super dangerous in large numbers like it has shown so many times on that show & I've never seen a zombie film were the characters actually call them "zombies" so that should tell u right there that they are something completely new to everyone in every single zombie film!!!! u act like the characters in zombie films live in the real world & actually heard of a zombie before 😒
@@robertcampbell8070 Dawn of the Dead remake was the very first film to reinvent the zombie genre in the 2000's , 28 days later came right after but they ain't zombies , they're actually living people that have been infected with a homicidal rage infection 🧬!!!!! The first actual movie to have "fast moving zombies" is actually "Return Of The Living Dead" (1985) !!!!!!!
@@mattlawrence1932 28 Days Later came out 2 years before Dawn of the Dead and the Dawn producers have explicitly said 28 Days Later was a major influence on the film. The "zombies" in 28 Days may not be canon "zombies" but the function in basically the same role and have the same basic mechanics as say, Resident Evil zombies.
if am not mistaken, this was Cillian Murphy and Naomie Harris' first major movie roles. Cillian had not been in a movie or show and Naomie was a TV actress as a teenager, then this was her first major role as an adult.
@@DeltaAssaultGaming You don't seem to do anything in your replies except complain about what you don't like (this and 28 Weeks Later apparently)
He had been in a few Irish movies before this, like disco pigs set in his home city of cork but ya this was his big break internationally.
@@donnchaodalaigh4031 Yeah, I had at least seen him in The Trench and Disco Pigs that I can remember before this.
Cillian Murphy is playing J Robert Oppenheimer in a biopic about the guy who built the A Bomb in WW2
This was a big break for most of the cast as well as the director and DOP and also was on of the lowest budget films of its day shot on a DV camera instead of film
Also, this movie and the sequel have amazing music themes. Some of the best in the genre.
John Murphy. Vastly underrated film composer.
Yeah, John Murphy's soundtrack for both films is great, while the inclusion of GYBE's East Hastings got me into Post-Rock
Yes the sequel is actually better but this one definitely grew on me over the years & the cast is perfect!!!!!
The intro scene with the song piercing through your ears (and eyes) of the sequel is amazing
Like the cliffhangers?
I saw this in the theatre on opening night and people were freaking out from the speed and movement of the zombies, first time I saw such a visceral reaction to a movie.
I saw this movie too on day one it was 1 h*** of a wild ride
When we saw this we had NO IDEA what we were going to. It was the only movie left by the time we got there. And I’ll never forget seeing it the first time. Top 5 horror movie and flipped the genre on its head.
@@codysutton4157 Definitely changed the "Zombie" genre, and made it what it is today.
Jim finding his parents in that bed has always stuck with me, one of the most horrifying and heartbreaking scenes. Jim’s raid on the compound I found to be so satisfying. Plus a hopeful ending ❤ One of my favorite horror films from the 2000’s.
18:42 honestly one of the most upsetting character deaths ever put to film
I've always thought that 28 days later is the most realistic zombie movie that has been made. Most. zombie movies income the undead. "28 days later" made the RAGE contagion be such an effective zombie searche spreader.
And two years later, Christopher Eccleston, the major in command of the military colony, would become the first Doctor Who in the TV series 2005 return. Though only on for one season, he was one of my favorites of the new regenerations.
For about 20 years I went to the movie theaters very often. 28 Days Later had people in the audience screaming and gasping. I have trouble being immersed in horror films because I can't feel "scared" but when people all around me were scared, I swear we as an audience were feeding off of each other and the tension was real on a hormonal, physical level. It was a full cinematic experience.
I don't really remember anything like this prior but it scared the hell out of me. It's said this movie inspired the modern zombie films and tv shows.
Well, the start of the walking dead completely ripped off the beginning of this movie, main character waking up from a coma, in the hospital to a zombie apocalypse
trust me, just because movies don't scare you, doesn't mean that you "can't feel scared"......
Cilian is my bae ❤
Yes! This is my absolute favorite horror movie of all time and I love seeing people watch it for the first time. I remember my wife hiding behind our blanket for half of it lol.
The cinematography and editing makes this feel like an experimental film disguised as a straightforward genre flick. One of my favorite aspects of this.
Danny Boyle never disappoints! I really enjoy his work, and his foray into horror is brutal and chilling.
Sunshine is another one of his movies IIRC, with Cilian Murphy as well. Great film
@@thenungzo Sunshine is Danny's sci-fi and the cast has gone on to be 90% Marvel & DC alumni.
@@LordVolkov which might have been a wise career choice financially..... but artistically, what a fall from grace
The music that Sam said creeped her out was from a band/group called "Godspeed You! Black Emperor", and their songs are just like 20 minute long orchestral soundscapes, almost all of them are extremely dark, and depressing, basically a perfect soundtrack for the end of the world. And it's the music I used to listen to to fall asleep, which an ex found out to her horror, because while it puts me to sleep nicely it would just give her nightmares 😂😂
28 Days Later is what got me into GYBE and thus Post-Rock in general and personally I think you're going a bit OTT on the "extremely dark and depressing". I strongly recommend anybody takes the 11 minutes to listen to their track "Moya".
@@MatthaisUK I agree, while a lot of GYBE is heavy or apprehensive, they also have a good amount of hopeful, even triumphant material. One of my absolute favorites is the first 12 minutes of "Storm".
@@MatthaisUK Same. Post-Rock quickly became one of my favorite music genre and this along with Friday Night Lights are the two movies that got me into it. Wish more people would listen to it.
@@MatthaisUK This movie also introduced me to the band Grandaddy.
Yes the opening of 28 weeks later is amazing! I’m not sure why it’s not talked about more.
@@DeltaAssaultGaming It's not as good as 28 days. But I don't consider it a BAD movie.
@@Justwalks speak for yourself... i personally hated it, cheap tropes galore, characters behaving unrealistically, cheesy effects... the opening is good but the movie goes downhill quick from there
His name Cillian, is pronounced Kill-ian (just in case you wanted to know). It's Irish so it is a hard C. Looking forward to the reaction to the sequel. Great reaction for this one!
still it's obvious lol that it's Killian not Sillian
@Kami Tenchi there are a lot of names that start with a C that sounds like an S. Cecil, Cedric, Cindy, Cynthia, Cecily, Celeste, Cyrus, etc.
Fucking love this movie. Absolutely one of my favorites. The sequel, 28 weeks later, is also amazing.
@@DeltaAssaultGaming It's a good movie, though definitely different from the first one.
@@DeltaAssaultGaming I mean, there's plenty to criticise for sure. But you have to admit the opening scene is incredible.
@@DeltaAssaultGaming That is what your parents felt after you were born, Big Disappointment.
@@OmegaSoypreme That opening scene is one of the best openings of any horror film ever. Maybe the actual best of all. I don't particularly care about the rest of that movie, it's okay, but isn't nearly as exciting or memorable as the beginning of it. "In The House In A Heartbeat" brings a lot of tension to anything.
The first few minutes was good but the rest of the second movie was absolute garbage with major plot holes and dumb characters imo
The idea of say "Fast Zombies" was seriously a great twist in the Genre.
Made things ultra scary compared to the slo-mo one's...
That flat tire/tunnel scene was crazy tense...
I thought for sure Sam was going to throw the screen across the room when Brendan Gleeson got that drop of blood in his eye. Great reaction to a very good movie! On to "28 Weeks Later".
Glad you all chose this one. What a great movie. Cillian Murphy goes ultra instinct to save them and I love every minute of it.
The music really stood out to me in this movie.
I don’t ever get tired of people watching this film. To me it is so different because of the mood. The character development to the soundtrack to the whole road trip aspect and family value to Jim literally becoming an infected to protect the ones he loved make this film come around full circle.
i know it's a pet peeve of mine, but for the love of god, don't use the word "literally" if it doesn't apply..... jim isn't "literally" becoming infected, his rage just makes him look like he is
@@stefanforrer2573 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@stefanforrer2573Ok but who cares by now? No one.
The US are finding and continuing to differ from the original Oxford English dictionary. The guy who tries to change is famous for it, I don’t care for it.. so look it up if you’re interested. I don’t care for it:🙄
That's so weird! Not only did I also never catch the infected boy saying/yelling "I hate you!" (or at least the audio is over-layed...maybe a cinematic touch of what it's like to be infected), but watching your reaction is also the first time I heard the first infected activist lady yell "I'M STARVING!" lol. I blame the stress of the scenes for missing those details 😅
Fun fact the infected where meant to be able to talk in the original version but they removed all voice in post production to make them more animalistic but they missed the kid’s voice in the burger place.
My favorite horror film of all time! For the score alone it sets itself apart from all others.
But that's in addition to the cinematography, acting performances, directing, writing, the different take on zombies, the grainy film look, social commentary, etc. which were all excellently done as well.
If you want to catch some quick feels, listen to the soundtrack which is available on YT in its entirety
Thanks for the reaction!
For people digging the soundtrack, the epic rock song early in the movie as we see empty London is Godspeed You! Black Emperor "East Hastings" from the album F♯ A♯ ∞
Great reaction. I think you guys would enjoy more Danny Boyle films. He’s a really talented guy- Sunshine (great sci-fi), Trainspotting, 127 Hours, Slumdog Millionaire. They’re all so different but all very good.
Millions.
Steve Jobs, The Beach. The list goes on
28 Days Later is and always will be the absolute best zombie movie ever made.
While many zombie movies tv shows and comics are good and all, they seem a little to outlandish, campy, and don’t always take themselves seriously, and thus many of them are just mindless splatter fests that are hardly even scary.
This movie and even it’s sequel got very visceral, and anxiety inducing reactions out of me and legitimately gave me nightmares for years after watching it when it first came out. Very few horror movies have been able to do that for me.
That's because the biggest fears are made by your mind, not your senses.
That's why realistic fear inducers are the most successful as your mind goes apeshit in style of "what if it's right behind me".
Cillian was so young here 😊
His name is pronounced "Kill-ee-an" Murphy.
This is the best zombie movie for me. Perfect mix of zombie and human threat. I think it's safe to say, that this became a standard for zombie movies that came after it.
Note to self: loveable good guys named Frank tend not to fare well on this channel. First cliffhanger, now 28 days later 😂
Hey Daniel and Sam I love the juxtaposition between silence and unbridled chaos that takes place in "28 days later" you guys talked about the amazing directing and shot selection. it comes from one of my favorite directors. Danny Boyle. I hope you get to see his other thrillers, "Sunshine" and "128 hours". he's one of the best modern directors out there for sure.
Zombie movie that put adrenaline back in the genre.
In the house in a heartbeat is a gold standard on my gym playlist for the treadmill
I had always thought zombie movies were kind of stupid. This movie changed my mind. Train To Busan made it two movies that countered my general opinion.
Shaun of the Dead is a comedy, before anyone asks, “what about …”, and it’s absolutely hilarious.
@@jjmalaprop9968 What do you mean? It's still a zombie movie. Zombies appear in many genres of movie
Zombies have been in cinema since the 1920's.
Cillian Murphy is a favorite of this film's director, Danny Boyle. Another incredible movie they did was Sunshine (2007). It is 100% worth a consideration.
Agreed, sunshine, he is incredible as Tommy shelby in peaky blinders.
Christopher Nolan has cast him even more times - The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception, Dunkirk & the forthcoming Oppenheimer.
@@MatthaisUK yes . He has .
October with the Schmitt reactions is my new must, screw the haunted house, give me more Schmitt reactions to movies like "Green Room", John Carpenter's "The Fog", and "The Howling". Someone below said they liked your honest takes on things without the overdone, outlandish reactions of MOST others and I totally agree. Your reasons for starting the channel are exactly what mine were in the 80's and 90's, loved sharing things I loved with others to see what they thought (how they reacted). Muchos Gracias from Denver, CO.
I've read where Danny Boyle and Robert Kirkman were inspired by the opening scenes of the novel/movie, "Day of the Triffids" when the protagonist wakes up alone in the hospital. They've both said it was a complete coincidence that they came up with the same opening at roughly the same time. Kirkman has even said he was afraid people would accuse him of ripping off "28 Days Later" when that wasn't the case.
Sounds like a good way to lie about ripping him off, LOL
I’m curious to see what y’all think of the sequel as well 👀👀👀
@@DeltaAssaultGaming I loved it. First ones better though
@@DeltaAssaultGaming It's not even close to be bad
4:47 the music freaking Samantha out is "East Hastings" by God Speed You! Black Emperor, a canadian band that specializes in long pieces of music that are avant garde at best...The whole album is good even though it is only 4 or so looooong tracks...
6:36 the actress is Naomie Harris, who has done a lot of work (none huge except for her two Pirates of the Caribbean movies as Calypso and as the drug addled mom in "Moonlight")
ah i couldn't remember if it was east hastings, or rockets fall on rocket falls.
James Bond too.
I never realized she was Calypso. Such a god awful character. I wonder if she wouldve been better off turning down that role
You guys are the best.
I've always loved this movie. As an American living in London during lockdown in 2020, I would go out for runs across the city in the evening that felt exactly like the opening of this movie... all those streets deserted, landmarks deserted, felt like the rage virus had won. Would put the same song on ("East Hastings") and the run felt like survival.
Woohoo! I'm so excited to watch this reaction! Love this movie.
Great reaction as always. You guys should react to "Sunshine." It's another movie directed by Danny Boyle and starring Cillian Murphy. It's written by the same writer Alex Garland who went on to write/direct "Ex-Machina." I had a friend named Cillian and he pronounced the C as a K, so I think it's Killian.
Danny Boyle shot part of the film with a Canon XL1digital video recorder to give it that look. They used it in shots where your conventional camera couldn't be. London's abandoned streets shot were done a little after the break of dawn. They would have film crew with walkie-talkie stop whatever traffic that was on the street and Joggers when filming.
This is a hugely influential movie to the zombie genre, across all media. It popularised "fast" zombies, and was one of the major kick-starters of the zombie revolution in the mid-2000's that still lasts to this day (Last of Us series soon :P).
This movie introduced the concept of the fast "zombie" to me. My initial reaction back in the day was, "Hey, no fair".
20 years later, this movie feels like everything good about zombie stuff without any of the bad
The opening scene on an empty London is chilling. And how they pulled it off is pretty amazing (shot the scenes in the wee hours in the morning, when no one was out).
Can't wait to watch this reaction lol.
I thought I was the only person that noticed the infected kid talk, never really heard anyone else mention this until you guys
I think Danny Boyle said it’s more meant to convey the mood of the scene and it’s not actually the boy speaking. It was definitely added in post. His mouth doesn’t move along with the words
@@joshm.1483 yeah, definitely noticed that he wasn't actually saying it. I always just assumed that the movie was trying to portray how the kid was like before the infection, like he was just a little bratty kid or something haha
As a resident of Manchester UK, I always shiver when he says "That's Manchester" before the camera pans upwards 😆
Final scene in the mansion Is one of my all time favorite sequences of film ever. Perfect
One of my absolute FAVORITES and I'm so glad yall liked it! 👍🏽 always love the content!
Jim, controlled rage.
There's an alternate ending of this film that follows Jim being shot where Selena and Hannah attempt to revive him in an abandoned hospital (part of that sequence is intercut in the original ending) but Jim ultimately dies. It ends with Selena and Hannah, still in the gowns from the military encampment, walk out of the hospital each carrying an automatic weapon.
Boyle said this was the ending he preferred but that the studio wanted it cut because it was too bleak as test audiences assumed Selena and Hannah were walking out of the hospital to their eventual deaths.
This movie ranked at #100 in the 100 scariest movie moments on Bravo, cool reaction as always Schmitt & Samantha, you both take care
Sam - "How much gas do they have?"
Me "none, but they got a lot of petrol."
You guys need to watch the next one now. It is just as good. Cheers from Australia
you two are like neighbors i would actually want over for a movie.
they actually shut down the roads all around main london to film the opening scenes, living in london myself this movie always gets me they done a great job!
You both seem like very kind people! That's the vibe I get. Lol love the reactions 😆
The first time I saw this the opening with Cilian Murphy waking up, wandering around a dead, empty central London calling out "Helloooo?!" and scanning for movement and signs of life. It is so chilling and haunting. It hit me really profoundly. Deep, primal neurons were firing full blast. I was mesmerized and simultaneously really freaked out. And then we found the church.
The way Boyle used music in this movie is masterful - every piece builds and builds and builds until bloody violent catharsis. The use of music in this movie is bleeping brilliant genius.
You guys are great , the way you analyse everything to perfection. You should be proud of your channel. 👏👏🇬🇧🇺🇸
28 Days Later modernized the zombie genre, even those there weren't really zombies in the film. The remake of Dawn of the Dead in 2004 and The Walking Dead were inspired by this film.
I’ve been seeing a lot of reactions suddenly to this movie and I’m happy that it’s getting love
Glad you guys enjoyed it and I can't wait for you to watch 28 weeks later!
Just found your channel. Been binge watching the film videos. Great channel, honest & love the post film chat
Here is a couple of great spooky films that every reactor under the sun hasn't reacted to yet - The Legend Of Hell House (1973) and The Sentinel (1977).
In the original ending, Jim Dies Saving the Girls. When he’s shot outside the car. The girls try their best to save him but can’t. In previews, the audience loved the film but hated that Jim Dies. So, they reshot the ending, using clips of the girls trying to save Jim in an abandoned hospital from the original ending. The Director spliced those scenes with the Hello sign on the grass field reshot ending.
One of my favorites. The ending scene with that music is epic
You gotta love the attention to detail, how in the intro they have lore accurate Peta protesters.
The composer of this amazing soundtrack is John Murphy. He also did the soundtracks for Lock, Stock, 2 Smoking Barrels, Snatch, 28 Weeks Later and perhaps his best, Sunshine. He is a true legend.
ps Please do 28 Weeks Later soon, love the channel!
The opening Scene and music in the 2nd one is one my favorite scenes in Cinema ever! Worth watching for that alone!
Saw it in theatre when it came out. Love it then, love it now.
Cillian Murphy is killing it in the final act (no pun intended). His transformation from a scared clueless dude to a efficient killing machine to the point where Selena thinks he is also infected with "rage" is amazingly done and also kind of believable in that scenario. I always have to think of a quote from Rambo "when you are pushed, killing is as easy as breathing". And the camera work in this movie is great too. One of the best post apocalypse/ "Zombie" movies ever.
Honestly 28 weeks later is an underrated (if still Hollywoodized) sequel and has pre-mcu Jeremy Renner along with one of the best intros to a movie (which was directed by the first director before he had to film something else)
Oh and I think the whole "infected vs Zombies" debate is pretty pedantic as even Romero didn't know about zombies when he made Night of the living dead he thought he was making a brand new type of monster.
I loved this movie when it came out in the theater.
one of the very few movies i watch like once every 2 years. its crazy how High Qual everything looks nowadays... in comparison this movie looks like it was shot on a flip phone. i still 100% love every minute of it.
Modern horror is too pristine, by making aesthetics pure you lose the grime and visceral quality. The best horror is raw.
Some trivia:
■ The reason why it looks so bad is because it's (I think) the first movie recorded entirely with digital cameras rather than film.
■ They didn't have the permit to close streets in London for the shooting so they had to record all of the outdoor shots of the city at sunset which resulted in a strange warm hue to those scenes.
Thank you for being honest about having seen this before. Earned a sub because of that!
I remember this was one of the most suspenseful movies of my childhood along with The Butterfly Effect, The Sound Of Silence and one about a serial killer which I don't remember the name.
Great channel been watching you both for 2 years keep up the good work big love from Scotland! 💙
I really hope you guys get to THE CROW this season. Seeing it on the poll and how close it was to 28 Days Later got me all excited!
Your reactions are always so fun and entertaining, so thankyou for that. British based horror film are always so cool and interesting to me and the acting in this is superb.
When Jim went all manhunter on those guys the shots and rain reminded me of Apocalypse Now when Captain Willard is making his move on Colonel Kurtz.
My favourite two shots in the movie are in the tunnel. First the rats all running the same way then you see the silhouette's cast on the wall of very fast running infected.
Trivia: The shots of Jim in London on the empty streets, are filmed in the middle of the summer early on a Sunday when the sun rises about 4am. The film makers had to ask drunk party goers to stay out of the scene so they could film.
This film is so good. And Danny Boyle is one of the most eclectic directors. And Cillian Murphy is hot AF.
Daniel: "Im sure it's gonna be so nice to see other humans."
Oh, you sweet summer child.
This is my absolute favorite movie! Seeing your reaction to it was great!!
I never noticed the little boy infected yells “I HATE YOU!”. Like, did Danny Boyle even notice that?? Haha
I watched this film and the classic, Intermission, on the same night with a big bag of weed and a load of munch. Randomly bought both on DVD and watched both twice, back to back. If you haven't seen it btw, Intermission is a fantastic movie. Cillian Murphy, Colin Farrell and Colm Meany. One of the funniest Irish movies you'll ever see. A Classic.
Totally creeped me out my first watching. I lived in the middle of no where on a farm and I had to go to the barn to get in my car to leave, and it's pitch black out, and I kept thinking any second infected would come running out of the shadows.
Out of those poll options I would prefer Body Snatchers and Prince of Darkness. Throw The Hitcher (1986) in the next one.
3:47 That word above his shoulder "Balamaha" --- English: 'Coin Wishes Stone' at Balmaha, Loch Lomond, Sterling, Scotland
I am writing this to help out Tbr Schmitt and Samantha and this video and this channel with the algorithm ✌️❤️😚☺️
so hyped for them to watch 28 weeks later!
Never noticed how egregious the product placement was in this movie. That shot of the maltesers box was hilarious.
Loved this reaction, also happy to hear some sequel love, maybe we'll see that up here one day, and that 3rd film we've waited 15 years for will get made. Jeez can't believe this film came out 20 years ago in the UK, hearing that Grandaddy A.M. 180 song in this video brought back memories, speaking of music, I was obsessed with John Murphy's 'In the House - In a Heartbeat' from the score for ages, I think he topped himself with the score for 'Sunshine' (please react to that) a few years later.
Also I remember reading The Walking Dead comic and he'd already written the start of the story before this film was released and ended up constantly being asked in the letters page if he copied this film's start, I think he was annoyed at the coincidence and would've changed it if he could've, his main influence was of course Romero's movies and Day of the Triffids (man wakes up in hospital to find world fucked is start of that too), all of which also inspired this film too.
28 days later is an absolute classic
what's scary is that if something like this did happen ppl would revert to their base instincts to survive at some point. the worst type of ppl would be likely to survive because they're the ppl willing to do whatever it takes to survive
Thanks for reacting to this film,
It's amazing to think the massive impact this small indie film has had on the horror universe,
Still a great film today.
They used DV cams for this, a first Gen of digital handheld camera it really worked for this type of flick.
Very fast paced and a little shakey cam.
Danny Boyle did a great job.
