Thank you so much for 28 days later Virus survival, why did it take us so long to get you tackle that one? I've been waiting for what feels like years on this one, thank you so much.
Still, I think the lab in Cabin Fever 3 wins the title of "The worst lab". They not only allowed a person without any PPE to stay with a highly contagious patient, but also demanded that person to help to hold the patient, who was puking like a Boomer of L4D.
@@CrazyRespawn we are talking about a level 3 hazard lab with potentially zombies. I guess even UK would have interest to keep it protected under use of firearms. If you as a civilian don't have the way to get a gun, government or military does and will.
Bite checks are really only necessary for more slow-burning zombie viruses. With the rage virus, it becomes pretty apparent who is and isn't infected within a second or two of exposure.
@@Ringolero I have watched 28 Days Later, actually. And the sequel too. That stuff is damn near instant upon exposure. Dude gets a drop of blood in his eye and he's a rage-zombie in less than 30 seconds. Go ahead, watch the scene again and start the timer from the moment he gets it in his eye. In less than 30 seconds, he was having seizures, vomiting blood, and trying to attack people. I imagine it's even faster if you get bit. There's no room for ambiguity with an incubation time that short, and symptoms that obvious. Therefore checking for bites is pointless. You could just wait like two seconds for the seizures to start and know for sure, then get rid of them.
@@MrNickPresley You forgot Begbie’s wife and son in 28 WL. They were asymptomatic carriers, if one of them was with you, you’d be fucked. Especially without you knowing they were infected and highly contagious.
@Ringolero the incubation period would be over by the time you finished your "bite checks". OP is correct, just set your sites on the unknown for a minute and wait to see if symptoms appear. It's also far safer to keep a distance and wait than get close and look for bites. In other words, you'd eventually die due to being too slow to react when someone turns while you're looking at their leg.
@@MrNickPresley You forgot Begbie’s wife and son in 28 WL. They were asymptomatic carriers, if one of them was with you, you’d be fucked. Especially without you knowing they were infected and highly contagious.
One thing i noticed about this movie, the part in the beginning with the priest - When he is coming towards Jim, he is waving his arms, like he's saying 'get out' or 'get away' throwing his arms outward. There are a few other examples but i think the infected have a semblance of their former self, with is a really interesting horrifyingly subtle antagonist trait, props to D Boyle. When i was a teen this was still my favorite movie. I had a dream where i was running from the infected and ran and hid inside a barn. I went and hid on the second floor, which was a catwalk against the back of the barn, visible to the entire ground level. As I was hiding, one infected entered the barn, looked around for a moment, and went behind a hayble. Then just stayed there. Still twitching, drooling, and making zombie sounds. The infected had some intelligence, or control of themself, enough to hide and wait - even in the state of rage - to catch their prey. Which is what terrified me. Yotube comment doesn't do the horror justice but it's the best I can explain.
the implication, based on other people recently getting infected, is that the flail and gasp (i dont know the actual term in english) wildly. the implication is the priest JUST got infected. in my headcanon, he was probably trying to feed an infected and s/he spat blood at him.
They definitely have some humanity left in them in this universe Don hunted his family down specifically his son, but i’m not sure if that was the virus trying to end what it knew could be a cure or if he just specifically wanted to kill them, but he did hide after the sniper scene when he appeared for a few seconds instead of just attacking them when he had the chance like any other rage zombie would have
Actually upon thinking about it I think "HELLO" at the end, while definitely taking more time and resources to make was WAY smarter to do than "HELP" or "SOS" During such an apocalypse one can only EXPECT a bunch of help and SOS signs, they are probably littered all over the place in the grand scheme of things, wherever survivers are. HOWEVER, whos to say they didnt get overrun? So many help or SOS signs are made in distress. Nothing points to there ACTUALLY being survivors there over a potential hotspot of zombies from a failed attempt at survivng in that location. Meanwhile, "HELLO" conveys something different. That there are survivors there, and more importantly *that theyre not in distress when making that sign*. Look all im saying is if i was flying overhead and saw people next to a "hello" sign and then saw a "help" sign two fields over... i know which one seems more plausibly safe at a glance
My problem with that is that if one were to see a 'HELLO'-sign, they would most likely assume that this is not a sign of survivors at all but rather something from before the actual apocalypse, like remnants of some kind of commercial, and therefore ignore it altogether.
Theres more to it than that I think because every time Jim said "Hello" in the movie he was attackedhis "Hello" in the church & then "Hello" in the road side cafe with the kid...This time it was a silent "Hello"
I propose a “here” sign instead. It combines the “no distress” and the “not from before the apocalypse” idea and makes it clear that someone is probably still waiting close by.
I remember being a kid when this movie first came out and having nightmares about that church scene at 8:40. Their reaction and body language to his voice was just so...unhumanlike. In that moment, you knew immediately that Jim made a fatal mistake.
it's terrifying, it scares me every time as if it's the first, and i watched the movie and this video multiple times , It's weird how my mind is not convinced that it is a scene in a movie ! damn it makes my heart jump outta my body . I can't intentionally watch this scene , i know how it makes me feel , like seriously threatened! And i don't even get scared , i don't remember being scared of anything in my life , and I've seen a lot . I just don't get it 😂
I watched this film when i was 10 years old after sneaking the DVD from my parents. The church scene still gets me with the people standing up/reacting.
That scene has lived rent-free in my head for 23 years. I love horror movies, I've been watching them since I was *far* too young, but that one scene is one of the most viscerally disturbing I've ever seen on film.
18:58 in one of the 28 days later comic books, the infected base their attack off of smell, the comic explains it with humans be so saturated in deodorants and perfume that unless you’ve never use them, they can smell you.
Does that mean they would still attack recent 'converts' due to not smelling gross yet and not attack a survivor caked in infected blood? Could a real life doomguy wearing googles and a mask go around taking out infected with them none the wiser because he is covered in gore?
Got myself a Tesco Extra near me with shutters, clothing section, medicine and other stuff like that plus ALL the booze you could want. If anything like this struck that would become the center of the entire town.
10:50 molatovs and flamethrowers being used against undead/zombies is more about burning the eyes, ears, nose and lungs. without eyes actively following at speed become near impossible, without ears reacting to sound to detect you become impossible, without nose tracking via scent become impossible, and with nose/throat burns or lung burns there ability to breath is taken away meaning gere body would not be able to move. its actually quite effective but more situational than normal weapons as you would want to use it against densely packed hords from a safe advantage point or use them in traps.
Personally wouldn’t choose an enormous metal tourist attraction in the busiest part of London as my base of operations. The power is likely to be out, and there are likely to be hundreds of zombies in the HMS Belfast, tourists who were trapped onboard when the outbreak hit. Don’t feel like clearing out cramped and winding metal corridors in the dark, in an environment which carries sound extremely well.
One thing I'd like to point out, even a suppressed rifle would be risky when running restocking missions. Since suppressors don't completely silence the gunshot, depending on the ammo used. Most people don't know about sub-sonic ammo, so chances are. They'd be using supersonic ammo, which still creates a loud crack once it leaves the barrel as it breaks the sound barrier.
And the mechanical action of the gun still makes noise. However loud the gun is when you chamber around, it is still going to make that noise when it chambers the next round. I’ve fired a gun with a suppressor on it several times, and it basically just turns the sound of a gunshot into the sound of a small power tool being used.
still makes a big difference though if you ask me, because in my experience I've been 100 meters away from 20 suppressed rifles firing simultaneously and it just sounds like a faint whispering sound. as for the crack of the round flying past, you wouldn't be able to pinpoint where it came from. it might rile up whatever zombies are near the trajectory of the round, but they wouldn't know where it came from
In the comics thats included in the movie special features, its confirmed that the infected have heightened smell and can tell the difference between infected and non infected due to it
question is, what's stopping them from just going ham at each other? uncontrollable rage doesnt rlly pick any sides even with better senses of smell interesting thought though
@@dazlao2155that's an easy one to answer. Their aim is purely to infect others with the rage virus, they may very well beat you to death in the process lol. But spreading the infection is their only aim, that's why they don't attack eachother. At least in 28 days/weeks later, who knows what years later will involve
Jim going beast mode on those soldiers at the end of 28 Days Later is actually one of my favorite scenes. It's amazing, brutal, and a nice finisher for Jim's character arc.
I love that you used a shot of Shadiversity in your video. That, along with mentioning people like Roanoke gaming and Dead Meat, is just the neatest thing to me.
You can just call them zombies, only people who are adamant zombies are undead flesh eaters while forgetting it originates with voodoo zombies who were very much alive and could be cured will berate you for calling InF3cTeD zombies.
For some reason I thought this video was on this channel from the beginning, didn't realise you had never covered this classic. Anywho, gonna be a great watch.
In the original ending he was supposed to die at the operating table trying to rescue him. Movie goers found the ending to depressing since ''the good guy always win'' so they made that alternative ending that he woke up in the cabin
I appreciate you mentioning the whole "over running the military " thing. I've always said that. At least in this movie and some others, they're fast moving and erratic. But if they moved like they do in say the walking dead, it would be controlled relatively quickly. There would be a lot of lives lost, but it wouldn't reset civilization.
some of those: mark! selena! this guy is literally brain-damaged. allowed themselves to be led by a dude likely still in a coma. brain-damaged, plot-armor wielding moreon. jim getting attacked in his sleep before he could scream plot armor. the infected kid is the only character I could imagine jim capable of beating up.
Sometimes I feel, that military in any kind of apocalypse (especially zombie kind) would be overwhelmed only when most soldiers would hesitate to shoot the danger, like some sort of very loud scandal, where a soldier would be prosecuted for lawfully discharging their issued rifle to stop some sort of threat, thus servicemen fearing also being harassed by the law would not dare to shoot the threat, not even if it would endanger their life.
@@apocratos0174 Old ad, still the most trained and most effective military on the planet. Air Force alone would rip the hell out of the Rage virus. The real issue are people that refuse to accept or acknowledge national guidelines. Look at something so small as masks, now imagine the government telling everyone to shelter in place when half of the citizens are psychopathic and itching to shoot somebody at any given day of the week. The real issue would be civilian populations.
It’s not realistic that the army would ever get overrun by zombies tanks, armoured vehicles would alone would now down most of them as long as they have enough fuel, the army could launch attacks from ships- where zombies again can’t do anything and they could easily mobilise and build fortifications that zombies could never be able to enter ( unless they’re wwz zombies)
you wanna know the fun part about his lame dvmb movie the only think tht is realistic is the way the activists let out a fking angry wild animal without any protection... those people are so dvmb
I’m all for animals rights, but Virus aside how the girl opening the cage and acting like the chimp was just going to jump into her arms and give her a hug is incredibly stupid. The Chimp probably would have attacked her and potentially killed her whether they had rage or not. The Virus part takes the stupidity to new height.
There was a prequel comic (not sure if its still canon) that discusses the creation of the virus and actually shows how yhe activists learn about the lab. One of the scientists, the one shown in the movie if i recall correctly, tipped them off, but he thought they would come in and take pictures not go rogue and open the cages.
In one of the 28 days later novels, a survivalist/survivor comment on the fact that the infected are attracted to soap, perfume and shampoo smells. This is also how he get dispatched of an another survivor who hunt him. The protagonist throw a bottle of perfume on the survivor military jeep while he's retreating, and in seconds a horde of infected jump on him .
But couldnt that also be used as a double edged sword , think about it , lets say you have deodorant on you , and to avoid the infecting findibg you , you use the deodorant all over the room so that you would blend in .
@ i didnt meant it like that , think of it like this: there is a horde incoming to your hideout , and you have deodorant scent on you , before the infected arrive , you spray deodorant all over the room , and then you hide like , in a closet or under the bed , when they arrive , the room would be infested with deodorant , you would blend in and they wouldnt find you , that can be a thing no ?
56:09 OCOKA is an acronym used by the military to represent the five military aspects of terrain that are considered when analyzing land: observation and fields of fire, cover and concealment, obstacles, key terrain, and avenues of approach. Should always consider a this before engaging any combatant.
Fun fact about the laundry baskets: the director really wanted more buckets, but they couldnt find any more, so they had to use laundry basket isntead.
Like selene said , it first started in the villages and small cities around cambridge , then it reached the big cities , and considering the distance between london and cambridge, im guessing it took around 2 to 3 days after patient zero was infected for the infection to reach london , so newspapers had the time to be printed.
The only idea I'd add to this is putting out signs when hitting nearby grocery stores, saying "Survivors on the Belfast" and maybe a time/place to meet on one of the bridges. Like "Survivors living on HMS Belfast as of [Most recent Date]. Access Ramps destroyed. Transport boats will be at London Bridge Mon/Wed/Fri at noon, Tower Bridge Tues/Th/Sat/Sun at noon. All welcome." If there are other survivors, it's likely that they'd also try to hit the grocers, after all. Granted it comes with the risk of attracting someone insane, but that's always a risk in extreme situations.
Almost a year ago i quit drinking and nerd, roanoke and space ice helped me cope with the withdraws. Im still sober to this day. Im very thankful to them and their content to help distract me from wanting a drink.
28 Days/The entire series is one of the few horror movies i look at and go "Ayep. no way to survive that one, pack it up bois" seriously, to even have a chance you'd have to be immune like Left for Dead protagonists
Ironically despite his Darwin defying plot armour, Jim was supposed to die in the original cut of the movie by dying in a hospital - pre-screening audiances were upset by this so he lived.
It was basically confirmed Mark wasn't infected. It's was meant to show the paranoia and impulsiveness that this type of situation would bring out in people 😅
It wasn't really "basically confirmed", he had a huge cut on his arm and was covered in infected blood. If one drop of that gets into the wound he's done for.
As a nursing student the most unrealistic part of this is him waking up without a catheter and a tube for fecal collection. Much less how they should have been changing out the IV.
As for the IV, we don’t know exactly how long it had been since someone looked in on him. There could have been a nurse taking shelter inside the hospital that kept his linens and IV’s fresh, but eventually either got killed or made a break for it a day or 2 before he woke up. The key slid under the door infers that there was at least someone who cared about him. I also agree that he should’ve had a catheter at the very least. But, that could probably be explained away by the director not wanting to waste time with a scene of Jim yanking those tubes out of his butt and penis. I doubt there’d be a way to make that look cinematic, lol.
@@Bashfulvideos1 i think it was years but there were talks about it maybe being months which is good cause then they will definitely be making 28 years later
Literally read this comment hoping that Danny Boyle would be the director. Just googled, and it looks like it's confirmed for next summer. I'm genuinely so psyched, I have chills.
Just one slight problem, you'd have to make sure to dog every door that leads to the outside. Idk how many there are on the bellfast. But I can say if your having to run through and dog every door down, it's a pain.

Dude I’ve never clicked on a nerd explains video faster in my life. 28 days later is one of my all time favorite movies. Can’t wait to watch you break it down
As far as the basket thing is concerned, I'm assuming it's just a means of catching ANY water or moisture, at least that's how I always saw it, pure desperation
The worst mistake they made was not just going to the Winchester and waiting. There is booze a jukebox darts probably a pool table or 2 so when you are in London during a zombie outbreak just go to the Winchester and you will be fine.
Ok about London not being a bloody mess. My theory is that it's England so a couple of rainy days might suffice to clean up the mess. But this theory won't hold as there are no corpses so lets assume that the military had some kind of control on the situation before it all went up in smokes. In 28 weeks later we saw that the army was cleaning or sterilizing the streets so it would make sense that they did the same here.
The rule i have for this infection is to just hide with enough food and water to last u atleast 2 months before u try and leave. Even then this infection is super hard to survive.
In this one you’re screwed if you’re alone or in a small group. Really it would take a 100+ group of fighters with a shit ton of ammo and logistics personnel, in an area outside the cities to have a chance at long term survival. I’d say going solo is only an option in absolutely shit scenarios in this shit scenario lmao 😂
@@jak356 really I would have thought more people would just make more chances for someone to mess up and get everyone killed. Still better then the return of the loving dead zombies I guess lol

I never noticed but totally agree there should have been blood & bodies EVERYWHERE! Also their not vampires, so why didn't they come running when he screamed AND set off a car alarm! I love this movie but you definitely brought up some plot holes that will forever bug me. 😂

You'd need two lure boats an equal distance on either side, or your lure boat on one side might just pull zombies from the opposite side closer to you.
"this isnt the walking dead wher *people are the real monster!*" uh did we watch the same movie that is literally the entire point, how Jim slowly turns into the same monsters he is hiding from - evident in the scene where Selena cant tell if he has turned or not, with the blood all over his face - in essence the rage has already taken him over.
Well I think he was more talking about a general, real life scenario. The running rage monsters are definetly more of a threat than like 90 percent of survivors, especially since having numbers is very good.
No. you're missing the point kid, he was right, he's talking about real life, you must be dvmb if you don't believe that "in real life, men who were normal 3 weeks ago with only 3 without segs would go crazy enough to trying to force a 14" girl lol this movie is just lazy mistakes after mistake 3 fking weaks and now average men want to jump lil girls? In The Walking Dead it is the same, the series is clearly based on the fact that everything must be able to go wrong for the zombies to win haha since it makes no sense for people to go crazy in such a short time.

One thing I'd like to point out, even a suppressed rifle would be risky when running restocking missions. Since suppressors don't completely silence the gunshot, depending on the ammo used. Most people don't know about sub-sonic ammo, so chances are. They'd be using supersonic ammo, which still creates a loud crack once it leaves the barrel as it breaks the sound barrier.
And the mechanical action of the gun still makes noise. However loud the gun is when you chamber around, it is still going to make that noise when it chambers the next round. I’ve fired a gun with a suppressor on it several times, and it basically just turns the sound of a gunshot into the sound of a small power tool being used.
still makes a big difference though if you ask me, because in my experience I've been 100 meters away from 20 suppressed rifles firing simultaneously and it just sounds like a faint whispering sound. as for the crack of the round flying past, you wouldn't be able to pinpoint where it came from. it might rile up whatever zombies are near the trajectory of the round, but they wouldn't know where it came from
It’s about time. I was going through withdrawals. And I’m glad it’s a good movie that I’m familiar with
and it's one hour long. this is THE fix.
0:14 THICK OF IT mentioned whats noise cancellation ?
Everybody knows
In the comics thats included in the movie special features, its confirmed that the infected have heightened smell and can tell the difference between infected and non infected due to it
question is, what's stopping them from just going ham at each other?
uncontrollable rage doesnt rlly pick any sides even with better senses of smell
interesting thought though
@@dazlao2155that's an easy one to answer. Their aim is purely to infect others with the rage virus, they may very well beat you to death in the process lol. But spreading the infection is their only aim, that's why they don't attack eachother. At least in 28 days/weeks later, who knows what years later will involve
Jim going beast mode on those soldiers at the end of 28 Days Later is actually one of my favorite scenes. It's amazing, brutal, and a nice finisher for Jim's character arc.
I love that you used a shot of Shadiversity in your video. That, along with mentioning people like Roanoke gaming and Dead Meat, is just the neatest thing to me.
I watched this twice and didn't catch it
I love this portrayal of “zombies” as they follow the rules of thermodynamics, energy production and usage.
You can just call them zombies, only people who are adamant zombies are undead flesh eaters while forgetting it originates with voodoo zombies who were very much alive and could be cured will berate you for calling InF3cTeD zombies.
For some reason I thought this video was on this channel from the beginning, didn't realise you had never covered this classic. Anywho, gonna be a great watch.
Ik im three months late but he did do a video on 28 weeks later
When I seen those two infected in the church get up, mouth wide open and just staring at Jim always freaked me the heck out.
In the original ending he was supposed to die at the operating table trying to rescue him. Movie goers found the ending to depressing since ''the good guy always win'' so they made that alternative ending that he woke up in the cabin

I appreciate you mentioning the whole "over running the military " thing. I've always said that. At least in this movie and some others, they're fast moving and erratic. But if they moved like they do in say the walking dead, it would be controlled relatively quickly. There would be a lot of lives lost, but it wouldn't reset civilization.
It would be controlled anyway tanks would take them out no problem
😂😂😂😂😂
Bruh, you went hard on Jim! And I am absolutely here for it!
😂😂😂😂😂
some of those:
mark! selena! this guy is literally brain-damaged.
allowed themselves to be led by a dude likely still in a coma.
brain-damaged, plot-armor wielding moreon.
jim getting attacked in his sleep before he could scream plot armor.
the infected kid is the only character I could imagine jim capable of beating up.
Sometimes I feel, that military in any kind of apocalypse (especially zombie kind) would be overwhelmed only when most soldiers would hesitate to shoot the danger, like some sort of very loud scandal, where a soldier would be prosecuted for lawfully discharging their issued rifle to stop some sort of threat, thus servicemen fearing also being harassed by the law would not dare to shoot the threat, not even if it would endanger their life.
Have you not seen the US ad with Emma and her two moms?????
Yeah....most military would be useless, specially in western countries.
Military won’t hesitate.. in an Apocalypse they will blow you, soldiers, zombies and life away in that area
@@apocratos0174 Old ad, still the most trained and most effective military on the planet. Air Force alone would rip the hell out of the Rage virus. The real issue are people that refuse to accept or acknowledge national guidelines. Look at something so small as masks, now imagine the government telling everyone to shelter in place when half of the citizens are psychopathic and itching to shoot somebody at any given day of the week. The real issue would be civilian populations.
It’s not realistic that the army would ever get overrun by zombies tanks, armoured vehicles would alone would now down most of them as long as they have enough fuel, the army could launch attacks from ships- where zombies again can’t do anything and they could easily mobilise and build fortifications that zombies could never be able to enter ( unless they’re wwz zombies)
What genuinely gets me, is that there are people out there who'd most definitely do what those activists did
PETA
@@Clown_the_ClownPETA are when econazi and soft hearted college spoiled sorority girls have a baby and they send him to study in Christiania
you wanna know the fun part about his lame dvmb movie the only think tht is realistic is the way the activists let out a fking angry wild animal without any protection... those people are so dvmb
Just stop oil would totally do it.
I’m all for animals rights, but Virus aside how the girl opening the cage and acting like the chimp was just going to jump into her arms and give her a hug is incredibly stupid. The Chimp probably would have attacked her and potentially killed her whether they had rage or not. The Virus part takes the stupidity to new height.
There was a prequel comic (not sure if its still canon) that discusses the creation of the virus and actually shows how yhe activists learn about the lab. One of the scientists, the one shown in the movie if i recall correctly, tipped them off, but he thought they would come in and take pictures not go rogue and open the cages.
But if all you needed was to take pictures... why not just do it yourself.
@@youtube-kit9450probably didn’t want to be blacklisted from working in any lab again
the doctor in there wasn’t the one who tipped off the activist the one who did killed himself after telling them.
"If you find yourself constantly having to resort to plan B, how about you make sure that your plan A doesn't suck so much?
Words to live by.
In one of the 28 days later novels, a survivalist/survivor comment on the fact that the infected are attracted to soap, perfume and shampoo smells.
This is also how he get dispatched of an another survivor who hunt him.
The protagonist throw a bottle of perfume on the survivor military jeep while he's retreating, and in seconds a horde of infected jump on him .
Oh that's interesting
But couldnt that also be used as a double edged sword , think about it , lets say you have deodorant on you , and to avoid the infecting findibg you , you use the deodorant all over the room so that you would blend in .
@@antoniocarlosoliveira9146I think the infected still can see and you just gave away your position
@ i didnt meant it like that , think of it like this: there is a horde incoming to your hideout , and you have deodorant scent on you , before the infected arrive , you spray deodorant all over the room , and then you hide like , in a closet or under the bed , when they arrive , the room would be infested with deodorant , you would blend in and they wouldnt find you , that can be a thing no ?
*scanning youtube for a 60ish minute video to watch while doing cardio* Oh, absolutely perfect!
56:09 OCOKA is an acronym used by the military to represent the five military aspects of terrain that are considered when analyzing land: observation and fields of fire, cover and concealment, obstacles, key terrain, and avenues of approach.
Should always consider a this before engaging any combatant.
Fun fact about the laundry baskets: the director really wanted more buckets, but they couldnt find any more, so they had to use laundry basket isntead.
38:46 those laundry baskets probably hold like an inch of water, better than nothing

“Lady mcmonkey lover” sounds like a insult someone would use in the 60’s
It pains me to my core when they have time to fully print an issue of the newspaper after a zombie outbreak.
Like selene said , it first started in the villages and small cities around cambridge , then it reached the big cities , and considering the distance between london and cambridge, im guessing it took around 2 to 3 days after patient zero was infected for the infection to reach london , so newspapers had the time to be printed.
That "what would you doooo" was so clean i replayed it like 50 times bro
The only idea I'd add to this is putting out signs when hitting nearby grocery stores, saying "Survivors on the Belfast" and maybe a time/place to meet on one of the bridges. Like "Survivors living on HMS Belfast as of [Most recent Date]. Access Ramps destroyed. Transport boats will be at London Bridge Mon/Wed/Fri at noon, Tower Bridge Tues/Th/Sat/Sun at noon. All welcome." If there are other survivors, it's likely that they'd also try to hit the grocers, after all. Granted it comes with the risk of attracting someone insane, but that's always a risk in extreme situations.
The Fellowship of the Brain damaged? Shit like that is the reason this is the only channel of this type that I will even look at.
Straight up caught me off guard 😂

What you mean
Almost a year ago i quit drinking and nerd, roanoke and space ice helped me cope with the withdraws. Im still sober to this day. Im very thankful to them and their content to help distract me from wanting a drink.
28 Days/The entire series is one of the few horror movies i look at and go
"Ayep. no way to survive that one, pack it up bois"
seriously, to even have a chance you'd have to be immune like Left for Dead protagonists
Ironically despite his Darwin defying plot armour, Jim was supposed to die in the original cut of the movie by dying in a hospital - pre-screening audiances were upset by this so he lived.
12:13 You underestimate the power of a tidal wave of aggressively sprinting bullet sponges
It was basically confirmed Mark wasn't infected. It's was meant to show the paranoia and impulsiveness that this type of situation would bring out in people 😅
It wasn't really "basically confirmed", he had a huge cut on his arm and was covered in infected blood. If one drop of that gets into the wound he's done for.
28 days later AND it’s an hour long? Perfect 😌✨
The Fellowship of the Brain damage was BRUTAL
i've been waiting for this one🔥
Lets freaking go you are truly the greatest and hope I'm lucky enough to use all your information in the upcoming apocalypse
As a nursing student the most unrealistic part of this is him waking up without a catheter and a tube for fecal collection.
Much less how they should have been changing out the IV.
Uh, jacho ain't coming to check his iv! 😂
You mean to tell me they stick a tube up your bum if you’re in a comma? And not use a diaper like the internent says
As for the IV, we don’t know exactly how long it had been since someone looked in on him. There could have been a nurse taking shelter inside the hospital that kept his linens and IV’s fresh, but eventually either got killed or made a break for it a day or 2 before he woke up. The key slid under the door infers that there was at least someone who cared about him.
I also agree that he should’ve had a catheter at the very least. But, that could probably be explained away by the director not wanting to waste time with a scene of Jim yanking those tubes out of his butt and penis. I doubt there’d be a way to make that look cinematic, lol.
Finally! Have been waiting a long time for this video.
7:54 "fucking" censored 8:02 "fucking" uncensored ahahahah

Literally read this comment hoping that Danny Boyle would be the director. Just googled, and it looks like it's confirmed for next summer.
I'm genuinely so psyched, I have chills.
Surviving a zombie apocalypse on a World War Two Light Cruiser... That's a first for me XD
It would be effective if you have enough fuel for the engines
This idea is great though never thought of it you dont need much either just get away from the coast
Starting the cruiser wasnt the plan, you'd be better off getting generators for power and heat the boat is basically retired @@jameson1239
Just one slight problem, you'd have to make sure to dog every door that leads to the outside. Idk how many there are on the bellfast. But I can say if your having to run through and dog every door down, it's a pain.

Thank you for the video I’ve been waiting
Dude I’ve never clicked on a nerd explains video faster in my life. 28 days later is one of my all time favorite movies. Can’t wait to watch you break it down
As far as the basket thing is concerned, I'm assuming it's just a means of catching ANY water or moisture, at least that's how I always saw it, pure desperation
What would you do? 😳 0:06😊
The worst mistake they made was not just going to the Winchester and waiting. There is booze a jukebox darts probably a pool table or 2 so when you are in London during a zombie outbreak just go to the Winchester and you will be fine.
Ok about London not being a bloody mess. My theory is that it's England so a couple of rainy days might suffice to clean up the mess. But this theory won't hold as there are no corpses so lets assume that the military had some kind of control on the situation before it all went up in smokes. In 28 weeks later we saw that the army was cleaning or sterilizing the streets so it would make sense that they did the same here.
The rule i have for this infection is to just hide with enough food and water to last u atleast 2 months before u try and leave. Even then this infection is super hard to survive.
In this one you’re screwed if you’re alone or in a small group. Really it would take a 100+ group of fighters with a shit ton of ammo and logistics personnel, in an area outside the cities to have a chance at long term survival. I’d say going solo is only an option in absolutely shit scenarios in this shit scenario lmao 😂
@@jak356 really I would have thought more people would just make more chances for someone to mess up and get everyone killed. Still better then the return of the loving dead zombies I guess lol

“and the one gun they all share cuz this is Britain…” 🤣
would’ve been hilarious if this is depicted during the infected attack on the mansion.
Mitch! 2 infected left flank! Give me the gat!
After watching the world fall apart during Covid. I really can't see us being able to have the acknowledgement or compassion as a civilised world to deal with a zombie outbreak
9:37 ‘Jims clearly to old to be his type’ Lololol😂😂
Been waiting a long time for this one. Dropped it just in time for me to enjoy it while I’m sick in bed.
the bits about the priest are gold 😂💀
I think they put Hello to signal they are alive and normal. Any rescuer would have seen thousands of Help and SOS only to see infected nearby or corpses everywhere
im so glad you are still making vids!! your older ones got me thru a shitty job during early COVID :) ❤❤❤❤
I never noticed but totally agree there should have been blood & bodies EVERYWHERE! Also their not vampires, so why didn't they come running when he screamed AND set off a car alarm! I love this movie but you definitely brought up some plot holes that will forever bug me. 😂

You'd need two lure boats an equal distance on either side, or your lure boat on one side might just pull zombies from the opposite side closer to you.
this content and the ai competitors are litterally night and day. its just so much better.
"this isnt the walking dead wher *people are the real monster!*" uh did we watch the same movie that is literally the entire point, how Jim slowly turns into the same monsters he is hiding from - evident in the scene where Selena cant tell if he has turned or not, with the blood all over his face - in essence the rage has already taken him over.
Well I think he was more talking about a general, real life scenario. The running rage monsters are definetly more of a threat than like 90 percent of survivors, especially since having numbers is very good.
No. you're missing the point kid, he was right, he's talking about real life, you must be dvmb if you don't believe that "in real life, men who were normal 3 weeks ago with only 3 without segs would go crazy enough to trying to force a 14" girl lol this movie is just lazy mistakes after mistake 3 fking weaks and now average men want to jump lil girls?
In The Walking Dead it is the same, the series is clearly based on the fact that everything must be able to go wrong for the zombies to win haha since it makes no sense for people to go crazy in such a short time.

So damn hype that 28 Years Later is releasing next summer!
Manchester is only about 50% the way up England far less when you include Scotland and also the population of British is about 60-70 million (slightly more if you include the whole of the UK). I'd go to the hightlands of Scotland if the roads were that clear. Loads of food, wide open spaces and very few people.
Fantastic as always thank you
