A FAST, FRANTIC, FEROCIOUS & FANTASTIC SEQUEL

Rating: 9/10 (24 March 2020)

The first 28 Days Later is a modern Horror Classic & one of the scariest "Infected" movie's ever made!!!
Yes these are the "Infected" & Not Zombies, these are humans transformed by the Rage Virus & not brought back to life from dead as in Zombies.
Now, This fantastic Sequel takes the "Aliens" approach as it has lots more action & monsters for an Action-packed Horror sequel. Everything here is tightened up more & bigger in scale for fear & tension but i do still prefer the quietness, full of dread fear atmosphere from the first film, that really gets under the skin & makes you on feel on edge, but the tone & atmosphere is still strong & thick here but there's much more characters around this time so the scary isolated & lonely feel is not as strong here.
People are starting to repopulate England, London & life is trying to get back to normal with the help of the U.S Army keeping watch & on guard. Everything feels realistic & the opinion sequence is absolutely terrifying & nearly equels the terror of the first film. We get an excellent & powerful performance from Robert Carlyle & his opening scene is energetic & heart-pounding with terror as Carlyle runs from lots of the Infected from his hideout farmhouse to the lake & IT'S pure Horror & gripping as hell!!!
A superb opening to set in stone that this sequel is gonna be just as Horrific as it's Classic first film.
The cast is excellent here with, like I've said Robert Carlyle, also Jeremy Renner, Rose Byrne, Idris Elba, Harold Perrineau, Imogen Poots & more. A solid cast of both American & British talent working together.
The usually great, Jeremy Renner stands out as expert Sniper-soldier Doyle, a "Hicks" type of Good & strong take charge type of Soldier, a great heroic performance.
The Rage Virus obviously infects & spreads through the Country again & all hell breaks loose again & this time a group of survivors, including some kids & soldiers are on the run through London trying to survive from the Infected.
The infected are absolutely scary as hell again like the first flick & to me are probably the scariest Creatures to ever chase Humans in the Horror genre.
There's lots of super scary & intense moments scattered throughout the movie & everything is done in a gritty & raw look like the first but also in a Cinematic way & not like the low-budget look & feel of the Classic first film, which i personally liked better.
28 Weeks Later is an excellent sequel & is just as much terrifying fun as the original but still not as great or as impactful as that Masterpiece.
I enjoyed & love both films in all their terrifying,gritty & gory glory!!!
