28 DAYS LATER - POSTER

Hailed as the most frightening film since The Omen, acclaimed Director Danny Boyle’s vision on zombie horror isn’t just scary…it’s absolutely terrifying. The reason why these zombies are so terrifying is that they can run you down, these are not slow moving plodding zombies you can avoid just by quick walking. If these zombies get down behind you, you had better have your track shoes on. The lead characters Jim and Selena played by Cilian Murphy and Naomi Harris turn in top notch solid performances, they make you care as to whether they survive. Jim and Selena meet up with two other characters Frank, and his daughter Hannah, played by Brendon Gleeson and Megan Burns. The four of them together take off out of London and search a safe place to live and get away from the blood thirsty zombies prowling the streets. If you are bitten or just one drop of blood from one of the infected gets into your system, you will then be infected with “RAGE”. And these are robust, hard charging zombies, they break into apartments, crash in through windows and chase you down in the streets. These are some very scary zombies indeed. Jim and Selena and Hannah survive a horrendous experience when they contact some surviving soldiers hold up in a mansion. Poor Frank becomes infected and is killed along the way. The soldiers want to kill Jim and take the females, Selena and Hannah for their own pleasure. So now after having to get away from zombies they now have to get away from the lust filled drooling soldiers. But not to worry, our heroes wax-off the soldiers and carry on in their search for safety. Selena played by Naomi Harris is a lady with a machete. This is one lady that you don’t want to mess with. Yes, she will hack you into little pieces. The zombies didn’t stand a chance with Selena. After the movie was over, all I could say was “You Go Girl”. I give this movie 5*****Stars.
