Some people i know found this film to be crap,but in my opinion,i thought it was great!who said us Brits werent good at making cracking horror films that make u jump out of your seat with fright?and we dont need 2 cram it full of CGI to have that effect either!28 days made me jump up from my seat quite a few times(and im not the type of guy who scares easily!)and the make up 4 this film reminds me of the days of the earlier zombie films(george a.romero's 'day of the dead',etc)also,what happens in this film will make u think to yourself'what if this really happened?'never say never,right?anyway,if u want a film to share with a loved one with the lights off and to make u jump(you have been warned!)this is for you!

This is definitely worth watching even just for the empty London scene

Well, it's up to you to decide, but personally I think it is one of the best brit horrors of all time.
It is scary, dark and tense, which all add up to make a great movie. Great acting and it has a great storyline aswell.
and it is directed by Danny Boyle - what more can you want from a British film.
If you love Zombie films then this is definatly one to watch.
Long live British Horrors!
