Quickie: 28 DAYS LATER (2002)
28 Days Later…(2002)–***
Quickie Review
A bike messenger wakes up from a coma to discover a virus causing uncontrollable rage has been unleashed in Britain, and he must find a way to live as one of the few uninfected people remaining. More like Lord of the Flies than Night of the Living Dead, Danny Boyle’s art-house horror film doesn’t break new ground, but does plant a few new seeds. Shot on DV, the gritty, shadowed pictures create an eerie world that plays to the dark psychology. Anyone looking for a “scary” movie may be disappointed, but no sudden jump is scarier than the shots of a desolate London. Starring Brendan Gleason and Cillian Murphy.
