"28 Weeks Later" - B +

Anybody who has talked with me about movies and films will know that I don't do well with crap, and at the same time I am a complete sucker for zombie flicks. I don't think I have seen a zombie or zombie-like movie that I didn't enjoy on some level, even if they were so bad they were good.

But there is no excuse-making necessary for the very fine "28 Weeks Later." This is one solid horror/thrill movie with all the right sources of terror skillfully applied. Yes, there is the obvious problem caused by having deranged zombie people racing to eat your flesh, but there are also these disquieting moments of realizing that you're truly alone in places where you ordinarily couldn't hear yourself think. In other words, the fright comes from more than physical danger.

This is a great follow-up to "28 Days Later." There are solid performances from all the lead and supporting characters. The cinematography and music score mesh seamlessly. Everything hits on all cylinders.

In short: go see this movie, even if the thought of the living dead gives you the undying creeps. You will find so many things done right in making you uncomfortable, you'll love it.

Grade: Solid well-earned B +
