We all know 28 days later is a superior film, but have we taken the time to find out why? I have and the evidence is right here on this video.
28 Days Later overview:
Four weeks after a mysterious, incurable virus spreads throughout the UK, a handful of survivors try to find sanctuary.
Director: Danny Boyle
Starring: Cillian Murphy, Naomie Harris and Christopher Eccleston
28 Weeks Later overview:
Six months after the rage virus was inflicted on the population of Great Britain, the US Army helps to secure a small area of London for the survivors to repopulate and start again. But not everything goes according to plan.
Director: Juan Carlos Fresnadillo
Starring: Jeremy Renner, Rose Byrne and Robert Carlyle.

@@xXPowerSurgeXx while you're right about it being early, that's not why it's not hd. I mean, look at the prequels which were also shot digitally. They deliberately chose that sd dv camera for it's portability and the way the image looks artistically. kinda like how super 8 and even 16mm still has some popularity due to the "feel." Also, the canon they used was only $4,000 which is cheap for the purpose. I'm sure that was a nonzero factor too.

I've got a theory about the soldiers; they arent actually soldiers, just a band of survivors who came across the blockade and took all the abandoned equipment. It sorta lines up that they were pretty undisciplined, as you pointed out, botched an execution. Cant quite confirm but it's my head canon.

@@mr.joesterr5359 But her death was her own doing. I admit she died in a gruesome manner, but all of it was her own cause. She was shown to repeatedly make the wrong choices. She could have left with Don instead of going to help someone she did not know for more than a couple of a minutes. But she chose to sacrifice herself to try and save that person. She then made the stupid decision of not communicating to officials what all happened for whatever reason. Sure, this can be played off as trauma, but even after the events of 9/11, victims were immediately asked questions about what happened and they responded, albeit shakily and in a not very credible manner, but they still provided information for first responders. Though there is fault in the sheer negligence of the military on this part, the second they discovered she was bitten, they should have had armed guards watching that entrance. Hell, they should have had armed guards prior considering how severe the infection was in 28 days later to have brought the entire country of the UK to it's knees.

That shop being stocked made sense to some degree. If the virus spread as fast as it did then you can imagine whole communities being taken over and any survivors being to scared to leave their house. The only groups that might chance going into shops would be organised to some extent but 28 days into it, you wouldn't find many. What makes less sense is that there were no zombies inside.

I actually enjoyed the break away in Days with the group traveling through the flower field in their way to sanctuary. A savvy watcher will notice they chose to use Fauré's Requiem "In Paradisum" and it matches perfectly on the scene and their mission. Here's the text to the liturgy: "May the angels lead you into paradise; may the martyrs receive you at your arrival and lead you to the holy city Jerusalem. May choirs of angels receive you and with Lazarus, once (a) poor (man), may you have eternal rest."

I have to disagree. I respect 'Days,' but it was a very flawed-feeling film in several areas, and it definitely didn't feel "real" to me; with the empty but squeaky-clean streets, the infected being so much weaker and sparser and less convincingly-acted in 'Days' than in the sequel (making it much harder to believe that this virus annihilated society on mainland Britain in just four weeks), the characters not securing their hideouts and making so much noise out in the open at night in the city centre, and the production errors in 'Days' were very glaring and made it look low-budget.

My personal favorite 28 film has to be the original. While it’s depressing, it gives the viewers and characters a true show of hope and sense of comfort that everything will be okay. 28 Weeks is just far too bleak. Yeah, yeah life can be hard and sometimes people suck, but you can’t just focus on the negatives all the time. Also, to be fair to Megan Burns, I feel like her reaction to Frank’s death is rather spot on. She’s in shock. How can you so quickly comprehend your father becoming infected, losing himself to uncontrollable anger, more or less attacking you, and then watch him be swiftly executed?

Also as for survivors, it seemed like there weren't many and given that it's dangerous to travel too far it's possible that there were some scattered stores that were untouched in areas where there was a lot of infected during the initial outbreak.

4:20 still fills me with dread when i see it. The fact a jumpscare can get you twice, not to count all the times i've seen this movie really goes to show that jumpscares are more than loud shock noises that they've been relegated to being now. Going from those calm empty streets into this completely silent church full of dead bodies, a single hello and then two sets of eyes stare at you with what can only be described as a twisted look. You go from a "What's going on here?" vibe to a "HELL HATH COMETH!" sensation in the blink of an eye. I still gets me, even though i know what's coming. But that's because i always get lulled into calmness when he walks those empty, maybe hoping things won't be as bad this time around, but no. That 'hello' kickstarts a hell that will last the rest of the movie. There are other movies that have jumpscares like these, that instead of scaring the viewer by triggering a bodily response, scare you with the sudden realisation that things are about to get worse, a whole lot worse. Like seeing a hostile person drawing a weapon, you get that escalation feeling.

I think the "I hate you part" might have been left over from an earlier stage of development, When you think about it the infection doesn't make people mindless it just consumes them with rage, so it's possible that originally they were going to make the infected able to speak (though mainly cursing and screaming at people) but later in development they decided to cut this. If you look at the development of 28 days later there were actually quite a few changes to the script, originally the soldiers weren't in the script and the group were going to cure Frank by giving him a full blood transfusion (which was eventually decided to be too unrealistic).

The military has its screw ups, but if someone who has been bitten by a virus that has already turned millions of people into carriers before killing them, they would be under so many guards with guns pointed at the woman constantly if they even suspected she had been bitten. Probably with a bomb under her bed if she tries to get up for good measure. No one would get to spend "alone time" with her to get bitten. No military is that incompetent.

I think the scene where the main character of 28 days later goes into the gas station is a lot deeper. I think he purposefully went into the gas station to find an infected and kill it. I think he wanted to kill one to try and loose his humanity more, maybe to make it easier for him to do hard things and survive. He seemed like he was prepared to get jumped when he was attacked. But instead of just any infected, he found a child. He had to kill a child. And I think he was ashamed of what he did after and that's why he didnt want to talk about it after. I also think that this might be a moment where he decides that loosing his humanity is not the way to go. Or maybe it helped him later turn him into a ruthless ghost, picking off the soldiers one by one without fear of death.

It just shows that the infection hasn't completely taken over and the part of his brain that deals with speech still works. It is also interesting since it shows that the virus makes the infected person hate others which is why they attack.

The kid zombie in 28 Days - the director commentary elucidates on this a bit, doesn't outright say it but basically this is a traumatic moment for Jim, Jim is looking at this zombie and projecting a human meaning to the "enraged" nature of the child, hence the "I hate you." I actually love that bit, because this is what happens in traumatic situations. You interpret what is happening through a distorted lens - the film "Come and See" is basically ALL about this kind of thing and the inclusion of these elements in 28 Days (the POV shots, the nightmare sequence) gives 28 Days a more intimate feel over 28 Weeks. 28 Weeks is a fine film, likely more tense and anxiety-inducing - but 28 Days has moments of surreal horror as well as beauty (the horses), that I think makes it a better film overall. There is no horror masterpiece without some jank. Look at Dawn of the Dead - they had people with strainers sifting the letters out of alphabet soup to make the blood in the film -hence the bright, almost orange color of it. Some shoddiness is an integral part of the genre.

I know the hello in fabric at the end was meant to be a callback to the hello at the start of the movie, however, I've always thought that was such a waste of fabric and time spent making it when 'hi' or even 'hey' or 'here' or 'help' were good options and would take less time and use less resources to make. Plus what I found most interesting in 28DL was the behaviour of the infected, they were clearly intelligent in that they didn't attack each other, once they knew someone was infected they'd move on to attack someone else, had spacial awareness, slept together in groups, etc. I remember there being a time when the infected made eye contact with non infected guy who's full of rage and doesn't attack him. Their behaviour was fascinating as far as zombie movies go, I hate zombie movies in general but this movie I found interesting.

The biggest thing I took away from this is that I really want to see someone do a study on why it is we can care about fictional characters and their safety as if they were real people, despite knowing they're not real simply because we've "gotten to know them," but find it much harder to do the same with characters who aren't fleshed-out enough. I mean, in real life, I would be horrified to see a complete stranger get torn apart by a mob of bloodthirsty crazies simply because they're people. I wouldn't care as much as if it were someone I knew personally, but I'd still care. So why is it that I can tap into a bit of that emotion for a make-believe person that I "know," but not as much into that general empathy for all (or at least most) people when it's presented in a fictional setting?

WWZ could've been that and at times came close, (rating held it back) Army I really enjoyed but still not what most fans of the genre want. Black Summer was decent for a lot of the 1st season, tho its potential got pretty wasted in the 2nd imo. Still tho, I think in time there will be a good return to the genre.

In a director’s commentary track I watched, Danny Boyle said that the “I hate you” is not diegetic. It’s supposed to be a kind of translation of the inner life of the infected. They are infected with rage, pure hatred, and this is what that looks like. Also this film had so many alternate plots/endings it’s mind blowing and the filmmakers seemed still unsure that they had picked the ones they liked best. Pretty interesting

I found some of the criticisms strange, including the description of Jim in his parents' house with the candle as "watching a movie", the "I hate you" thing, and the full grocery store. I don't think so many of the elements like these are intended to be viewed as literal. Instead, I think they're meant to evoke a sort of dream-like quality to their moments, to make them feel more personal and human. The memories Jim was remembering were replayed in his mind as home videos, which often make us feel nostalgic. You can tell what they mean to Jim because of this surreal rendition. I didn't know about the "I hate you" comment by the director, but I love that and consider it in the same vein. And the full grocery store, with the well-lit aisles and colorful packaging, I think really just shows us how abundant the store would have felt to them and the kind of joy that the moment contained in the context of the absolute catastrophe that was the global infection. Even if we don't talk about it, I think we all know this film is way more than just a story. It speaks to our humanity in a very special way that is not very literal but still very real

When I first saw the "I hate you" bit, I immediately thought it was meant to be unconfirmed whether it was actually said or not to suggest to the audience that his mind might be slipping, that he might be imagining things, which is why he remained silent after.

Yeah that whole "pointing the loaded weapon at children" thing is a real issue. In a lot of situations I've seen of, heard of or read of, if you're panicked enough you'll have an utter death grip on your weapon, enough so that you could accidently drop your magazine, or say if you were spooked by a zombie that came at you through a 4x optic you could be panicked enough to squeeze off a round at the people you are there to help

@@Howesenberg yeh now that I've finished the vid, the joy of 28 weeks is more nostalgia based than nothing else. . . It's just kind of rubs the bigger budget in your face? Again. . . Those first 10 minutes are like the culmination of all horror cinematography. And then it's just generic Hollywood horror. Whereas 28 days didn't have anything that specifically impactful, but the entire movie held its own. . . Also that scene where Cillian can't run due to a lack of proper nutrients. . . Fucking immaculate. For most viewers, probably inconsesquetial, as a bio that hit so hard. . . Bought fucking time a post -apoc movie showed the detriments of that shitty arse diet. . .

For the scene where the child that's infected speaks for some reason it always bothered me that there was a possibility that since you're seeing the movie through the main characters eyes it's a possibility he mentally altered the fact that the kid might have been asking for help and not attacking him therefore he beat him to death for no reason. This always felt like a possibility because of the fact that he doesn't bring it up to Selena outside and when the soldier asks him if he's had to kill anybody he says a boy not an infected

I have a theory: the infected kid in 28 Days Later might be the same kid they saved from 28 Weeks Later. Remember that the first sequence of 28 Weeks Later happens during the first 28 Days before Jim wakes up from its comma.

@Howesenberg

To me the fever dream theory would be at odds with what Danny Boyle said in an interview, he said the reason he used low quality cameras and fairly unknown actors was because he wanted the audience to connect with the movie in a way that felt real.

@@Howesenberg Fair enough, I still kinda see it as realistic though, as in, if you woke upweeks after it happenning, you'd realistically feel like you were having a fever dream and the uncanny valley would be constant with Zombies. Also, just finished the vid, watch Rec 4, its at sea and decent.

I loved Robert Carlyle's acting in 28 Weeks Later. It really made me hate his character, but it also reminded me that when shit hits the fan and the dead walk the earth, not everyone is going to turn into Sylvester Stallone and become a zombie slaying Giga-Chad, but most likely become cowardly and jump ship at the first sign of trouble, no matter who they leave to the wolves (or undead, in our case.) I'd die to see a "28 Years Later" in production.
