28 Days Later

[Cheese]

Hell I rarely here any 'peons talk about any brat films. Just American ones and the occasional Japanese flick.

That's kind of tragic given that we are supposed to be an international forum. I went through a phase of recommending good Asian films that I had seen but I think I just did that on my own forum

I haven't seen a good Asian film recently (with the exception of Hard Boiled) though I have seen a few dire ones (The Locker springs to mind). I have Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance to watch which is the first film in the trilogy that includes Oldboy. Still looking for the third film Sympathy for Lady Vengeance.

Shaun of the Dead > Resident Evil and 28 days Later and Dawn of the Dead

If you get the chance download a British film called Evil Aliens. It's a comedy cross between Evil Dead and Aliens set in mankerland (Wales), a bit cheesy in places and obviously low budget but there are some really funny lines and great homages to the genres it is spoofing.

Will do, chief.

Shaun of the Dead > Resident Evil and 28 days Later and Dawn of the Dead

Shaun Of The Dead was gooood.

When they got to the bar at the end, there was no comedy.

It was pure gore.

DOD '04 rocks all of them though.

RE was decent but Apocalypse sucked ass.

I thought they were mortally wounded.

The bite is in effect a mortal wound, you would die and then come back as a zombie but that's far from "bitten on the arm, you'd still be OK". You get bitten on the arm and you're joining the Braineaters Club or cursing that you live in gun-free Britain and can't get anyone to shoot you in the head as a mercy killing (for me at least...).

I think DOTD 2004 changing it into a disease/virus thing was a good idea because the whole people dying of natural causes and coming back seemed a bit hookey to me.

I just watched the end of Day Of The Dead (it was just on Sci-Fi) and the guy who let all the zombies in was not a zombie.

He was just mental as fuck.

You are right though that 28 Days Later was the first to add an immediate change (like 20 seconds). That was quite noice.

May be some of you already knew,
but I just found out today;
there is a sequel in the works, and actually I
like the idea.

'28 Weeks Later'

and there is even a rumor about making it
a Trilogy.

Yeah, I got my details a bit muddled there but my point was that if you are bitten on the arm then you are in trouble. Didn't they have to cut his arm off so that he didn't change into a zombie?
