28 days later I didn't write this movie review...

I watched the movie "28 Days Later" with Cilian Murphy of "Batman: Begins" fame. After a day at Universal Studios, I was still determined to stay up and watch the movie without falling asleep. A double scoop of Jamoca and Gold Medal Ribbon ice cream from Baskin Robins helped. But as it turns out, the story, the movie, and the characters were all comepelling enough for me to keep my eyes open.

Eight mintues into the movie, Jessica decided she couldn't handle the suspense. It is a scary movie. I guess its considered 'horror'. And watching it late at night with your papa who likes to scare you at appropriate times of the movie prompted her to visit chat rooms instead of sitting in the dark to watch it.

So, here I am, one and a half days later (not 28), writing the review.


24 Days Later (2002)
My rating: 7/10

Quick Review: An outbreak of a deadly virus wipes out London. 28 days later, only a few have survived and need to protect themselves from the infected.

Scary thing – it seems like something like this could happen. And if it does, what would you do? This is a Zombie movie. Its disguised behind the fact that they never refer to the infected as Zombies and nothing is known about the infected. But in fact, they are incredibly aggressive Zombies willing to bite you if given the chance. And if you’re bitten, within five to twenty seconds you’re one of them! I love these types of Zombie movies.

Unfortunately, it took a turn toward the end that I didn’t think it needed to do. And a big question looms in the air as I watched it. Here it is. Why are some infected people dead, why have some turned to Zombies and how could the survived actually survive the outbreak? It’s something you need to suspend in order to take this ride.

Altogether, a suspenseful, creepy, sit at the edge of your seat movie that I found entertaining.
