There is an animated DVD coming out on May 1st that explains what happened between 28 days and 28 weeks. It also will have a free ticket to the 28 weeks film.
The basic story is that the UK is now empty, all of the infected are dead and all of the evacuated refugees are allowed to return (Rose Byrne and Robert Carlysle) by the US who have clained victory over the Virus (analogies to what we see as terrorism perhaps). Unfortunately the virus is carried in by one zombie that is isolated for scientific purposes, and the virus is then released again by accident.
Apparently this film is more violent, dark and disturbing than the first. Danny Boyle (28 days director) didn't make this but was a senior executive something or other so his input will be seen throughout the film. The original 28 days cast will not feature as they are busy filming other things.
Bring it on.
without reading anything, i have doubts this will be a good movie. Just my simple pessimistic views on films.
then, i read:
- evacuated refugees: i sense a classic "human relation and feelings" story > very bad
- carried in by one zombie : O M G. this is going to be bad.
- dark, violent, disturbing: fast cut, lots of dark shots, less light, unclear, action, explosions > bad.
