oooh...
I really liked the first one, I'm not a fan of horror, but modern Brit-horror seems to work well when done properly - like Dog Soldiers which I thought was fantastic
I'm sure there are other good examples, but I can't think of any!

i'm going to have to give this a looksee, i loved the first.

I loved the first but not totally convinced by this sequel, not being by the same director and all. Although I hope it is good as I love a good zombie film.

This is out tomorrow, who reckons they'll give it a go? I'm more tempted to see this than the Spiderman film from last week. (That's not saying a lot in my book though)

If I had a cinema anywhere nearby I'd be right out to see it. I don't care about the American involvement that so many people are appalled by and all the political bullshit people read into it. The first one was good so I'll be giving the sequel the benefit of the doubt.

I hope to see it asap. Regardless of what any reviews say.

That's a good shocking then, not a bad shocking? Opinions on IMDb look good but I don't want to know too much before seeing it.

As far as I can tell, a good shocking aye. I'll have to give it a watch in the next week or so. Hoping that cinema's don't care about 18 certs too much (Being 17 is so so more annoying when you're about a month away).

When I worked in a cinema we kinda based letting someone who looked young in by the calibre of the film they wanted to watch and how they were acting on the way in. Also you're much more likely to be let in if there's just a couple of you like a boy/girl couple or some variation thereof.

Looking forward to this immensely.

Well i went to see 28 Weeks Later on Friday.

And i must say, although watchable, i came out disappointed. I guess going in expecting something as brill as the first one makes it difficult to overcome expectations. The storyline is simple, and has so many "OMG that's a really stupid thing to do!" parts to it that it gets tedious.
The ending is particularly bad, the decent-ish build up leads to nothing much.
I'd say, watch it if you are bored, but better to wait for a decent rip to fall to the floor really.
