MamaPink Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 I just saw this flick last night. Thought it was very well done... first horror movie I've seen in awhile that didn't bung me up with too much cheese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 I thought it was alright. I really took a different path than I was expecting though. I could have done without the whole military aspect of the plot. Definetly food for thought though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyRage Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 That's really funny. My borther was just telling me he was downloading it, and we discussed whether it was a horror, or a Sandra Bullock movie (another kind of horror). But I think that one is just 28 Days. The later is the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PalacePrincess Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 yeah, nothing like a couple o'thumbs to the eye sockets to clear those first date jitters... for the most part i thought the movie was fairly well done. it seemed much had ended up on the cutting room floor to meet time constraints, but even so it was pieced back together pretty well. i agree, the military bit took a nasty twist... they certainly didn't waste any time turning those "heroes" into hoseheads! so who's up for freddy vs. jason???

Jaimoe Posted July 18, 2003 Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 Here's some great news for fans of 28 Days Later: Los Angeles Times... Published July 17, 2003 In an unusual marketing move to pump up the buzz surrounding its horror hit "28 Days Later," Fox Searchlight will attach the film's original, rather downbeat ending to all 1,400 prints now playing in theaters. Although outtakes, filmmaker narration and alternate endings have become an expected part of DVD movie packages, Fox Searchlight said Wednesday it is aware of no other instance in which alternate scenes were added to a film still in theatrical release. The ending now in theaters was the film's original scripted ending but was ditched by screenwriter Alex Garland and director Danny Boyle during production in favor of a darker coda. That grim ending was included in the first cut of the film and tested with preview audiences in theaters. But Boyle and his filmmaking team ultimately rejected the scene, set in a hospital, as simply too bleak. The darker ending will appear beginning July 25 at the conclusion of the credits.
