Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 17, 2011

It's an exciting, well-directed thriller that, while providing more than enough action and gore to satisfy genre fans, also offers the political commentary that has characterized zombie movies.

There isn't much acting here, but there is entirely too much vomiting, and the prose turns laughably purple, too.

Full Review | Jun 20, 2007

Even though I knew the scares were coming, I jumped out of my seat a few times.

Full Review | May 21, 2007

As eerie as the first and probably more scary.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 19, 2007

Confirms that a Fox Atomic-produced horror sequel need not be technically clumsy, stupid, crass and fright-free.

| Original Score: B+ | May 17, 2007

Under Fresnadillo's assured direction, 28 Weeks Later blurs the line between genre entertainment and a photojournalist's shots of the next urban catastrophe.

Full Review | Original Score: B+ | May 12, 2007

Combines traditional B-movie virtues -- economy, invention, sinewy narrative spine -- with the eerily resonant spectacle of a 21st-century metropolis stripped of its citizenry.

The film rapidly degenerates into an Escape From Canary Wharf video game.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 12, 2007

28 Weeks Later eventually hits the ground like a "Rage Virus" victim getting a drop of infected blood in his eye - quickly, loudly, and without a thought in the world.

Full Review | May 11, 2007

Relentlessly grim and grisly, 28 Weeks Later is not for the faint of heart. But its provocative post-apocalyptic theme makes for a smart and deeply unsettling film.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | May 11, 2007

A fiercely effective broadening and deepening of the first movie's premise.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 11, 2007

The social commentary is as subtle as -- well, a George Romero movie.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 11, 2007

Succeeds as both terrifying horror, gore-fest and, at times, serious drama.

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 11, 2007

Thematic resonance makes 28 Weeks Later stick to your nightmares. Hold on for a hell of a ride.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | May 11, 2007

A bloody, button-pushing shot of adrenaline.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | May 11, 2007

28 Weeks Later has a stronger story line [than the original], equally fine performances, greater tension, enough gore to satisfy the most hard-core zombie fan, and a narrative pace that flings us from the opening scenes to the very last image.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 11, 2007

Director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo hurns out a straightforward cinematic gorefest that's competent and repulsive but not much else.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 11, 2007
