I just finished these today and I can't wait to see the third... Have you seen these and what do you think? F---ing Zombies! |
But they did kinda go through a death period.... I suppose if you wanted to be technical yes they were not zombies. IMHO they were close enough to be considered zombies, but they ran like lightning. The only thing that bothered be about those movies, was the lack of weapons. I mean I know its in a different country, but man at least find a gun. When they do find them, they still like using their bats and stuff 
|
If it walks like a zombie, talks like a zombie, and bites people like a zombie... you have yourself a zombie. Several million of them in one film makes it a zombie movie. I loved it. It was such a bleak and appalling portrayal of heroism and sacrifice producing the worst result conceivable for humanity. As of the end of the film we know Europe is compromised, but little else. It's chilling and depressing, but I figure that means its creators did their job. Plenty of room for a sequel. |
28 Days Later - Best Zombie Movie Ever 28 Weeks Later - Worst Zombie Movie Ever 28 Months Later - ZOOOOMBIES INNNNN SPAAAAAAAACE |
|
I can imagine the plot for the sequel - 28 MONTHS LATER... UK is entirely infected and has spread into mainland Europe through the EuroTunnel; now the Rage Virus is spreading throughout Europe at an alarming rate, cities like Paris, Amsterdam, Madrid, Rome and Berlin have skyrocketing cases of the Rage Virus; NATO is in disarray, the United States tries desperately to find a cure while the Soviets barricade themselves and the possibility of using Nuclear weapons to stop the mass of infected people from reaching its borders. Sounds like sequel. 
|
Maybe it will be some guys on a mall rooftop in China with a bunch of .22's and beer. |
Dibs on the shit that you do own a lot of. Hopefully ammo!
|
I only have personally reloaded ammo, so use are your own risk

28 weeks later sucked. instead of getting out and shooting the dudes with the flame throwers and THEN pushing the car, he got fried. The chick using the M4 with the NV on top and YELLING at the kids where to step with all sorts of bad things running around in the dark. All the while the rifle had a fucking white light bolted to the side of the rail. Retard bitch. Then they go on a loooooooong drive and yet the infected dad is wandering around and catches them easily. And the infected dad seemed to have night vision. How did he see in the complete darkeness? Does rage give you super powers? Bullshit. stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid. I had to wash my eyes out with bleach after watching that flaming hunk of horse shit. |
Not true--they're hyper-aggressive, something like a highly motivated attacker on PCP. They'll continue attacking until physically unable. If you're not behind a barrier or protected you need a CNS shot, not just a COM shot. They are significantly different from zombies--you can shoot a rage virus victim from behind a barrier and let them bleed out over a few hours or die from sepsis over a period of several days. That means you don't need head shots if shooting from a protected position. Almost any hit will be effective, eventually. So your ammo expenditure strategy is significantly different. |
the stupid infected dad thing, reminded me of Jaws III, where the shark follows the family around. 
|
Funny, I thought that music was great too. It just sounded so hopeless and sad. |
|
On the one hand it is easier cause you don't need headshots, and the things need food to live (you can starve them out). On the other they are runners, and a typical human can run between 15 and 25 mph. So in some ways these type of zombies (using the term loosely) are much more dangerous, but at the same time are easier to kill. |
Actually beyond those that had repopulated the UK, it would be the safest place on earth. It is virtually abandoned and no one is coming in or out. The rest of the world would fall quickly unless drastic measures were taken. So in some ways being in the UK during the second outbreak would be the safest spot. Tough still, but if you can hold up for a couple weeks, let the zombies starve out, you should be GtG. |
Cause the british don't have Bradleys. And the zombies in 28 days/weeks later run, can open doors and other minor tasks. What do you do when you run out of fuel and out of ammo? They are still swarming on the hull. That is the point, firepower is easy until you get overwhelmed. |
They weren't British, they were Americans and in the movie they showed one. It is not like there were millions of zombies to deal with. And I did not know that Bradleys can be opened from the outside? |
In the first one it was all british. Maybe they didnt have Bradleys. Why would you bring heavy armor when providing security and clean up for a EMPTY country where there is literally no one around (all the zombies being dead). |
Sorry I was referring to the second movie and I did see armor when the people were first going to the secured town. |
I'm alive! But I never thought I could use all 18k rounds of .223 in one night! |
|
*shrug* It was alright. Wasn't as good as the first one. As previously mentioned, the opening 'run for your life' was one of the better scenes where you weren't tempted to go 'why didn't they do this/that?' That being said, for pure lol-factor, the helicopter as a lawn mower scene made me giggle. |
 You sir obviously have not seen Vampires vs Zombies!I'm a big fan of really awful zombie movies, really. This movie was just too much. My Lord. How could they F**K up the undead battling lesbian living dead?? |
