Review of 28 Days Later (2002) by Nicka. — 19 Aug 2007
Shocking realism and some of the genre's most horrifying shots in recent years are captured perfectly by Boyle, who succeeds in creating genuine fear from the base of one of humanity's most elemental anxieties -- that which can tear a city such as London to the bare; the fear of an unknown viral pandemic.
Released when it was, Boyle's already horror classic tackled this global nightmare precisely when it was to be most effective; as SARS was striking on high abroad and America was on alert to prevent any cases of its own.
'28 Days Later' is unrelenting horror cinema that first stunned England, and then created an epidemic of fear in the States.
