28 weeks later
Posted by baconbach on September 22, 2008
So I just saw 28 weeks later. I enjoyed that movie quite a bit. The cast was great! It had the good doctor from American Gothic and Micheal from Lost, which leads me to believe that eventually Lost will incorporate both the Santa Clause Demon (because of the movie Santa’s Slay staring Clair) and zombies into the show.
This movie followed the same typical mold for a sequal zombie movie but did some different things with it. I like how the movies starts with the zeds overrunning the house, and the introduction of an infected carrier is awesome.
What I really noticed is that the 28 series is not real zombies, but I would call them a cousin of the zombies. They are cousins because they have enough similarities that they obviously belong in the same family but there is one huge difference. Death… The way I see it zombies are dead or technically “undead”. Meaning that to become one the victim dies for a period of time and then comes back. The things in the 28 series don’t die before they turn. This type is seriously easier to kill seeing as how it is alive and not already dead or undead . Some might think that this cousin seems more real and therefore scarier but I don’t know.
I know that alot my readers (3out of 5) don’t really care about zombies so I promise the next few posts will NOT be about zombies!!! :)
