Review – 28 Weeks Later

With a little luck we won’t get 28 Years Later for another two or three decades. This sequel magnifies almost everything from the original. The budget is bigger. The gore is gorier. The jump-cutting is more frantic. And the lulls in the action are more boring. The one thing this isn’t is scarier. The first one had a certain indy creepiness to it. This installment is mostly just an expensive reheat of the tricks from the first go-around (with a touch of Romero’s Land of the Dead stirred in for good measure). Though I’ve certainly seen worse zombie movies, overall I thought this was somewhat uninspiring. Mildly amusing
