28 weeks later?

Has anyone seen it? was it good? did it scare you?

I have seen 28 days later and it scared me a lot so when I heard about the sequel I got really excited. "I have to see that" I thought when I saw some of the trailer, but to be honest I have not seen it yet. So now I ask you, have you seen it and was it worth it?

Yes it was worth it. It was better than the first one imo. As soon as I left the movie theater I put it as #1 on my horror movie list. The only fault I had with the movie is that it should have been a little longer but despite that you should definatly check it out. I wouldnt say it scared me but there were moments that had me on the edge of my seat. Especially the first few minutes.

I liked it... Though I didn't think it was scary. But then again, these kinds of movies don't scare me.

I thought it was facinating... It dealt with the 'after', which is something I always wanted to see in a 'zombie-like' film.

Oh, that is fascinating. I have allways wanted to see a movie that deals with the aftermath of a catastrophe.

Not as good as the first, but a worthy sequel non the less.

I dug it, but I believe viewers get hosed with the fate of certain characters.

I'll agree with that.

Agreed. The original is much better.

There seems to be a mixed feeling about that movie, cause everyone I have talked to either say it is good or it is very bad. Maybe I should make my own opinion about it..

By the way. I saw 28 weeks later just a couple of days ago and thought it was very good. But very bloody.

The original Dawn was much better, in my eyes. It had more gore and shock value. The remake just felt too Hollywood for me. It was filled with jump-at-you shots and bloody faces, and the fact that the zombies ran full-shot at everyone was 1) a take on 28 Days Later, and 2) against everything a zombie should be.

As for the 28 films, both were good. Weeks was a good follow-up, despite the doom and gloom it brought at the end.
