As good as the original

Rating: 8/10 (28 May 2007)

This takes place 7 months after London had been ravaged by a virus that turned people into flesh-eating monsters. Now they're all believed to be dead and some new communities are being set up in certain sections of London. But things slowly go wrong and a new outbreak threatens to occur...
The plot may sound kind of vague but I don't want to give it away. If you liked the first one you'll like this. Like the first it's grim and (after a slow start) VERY graphic with extreme blood and gore. The acting is good all across the board and this film has no letup--there's no jokes to lessen the tension. No exactly a fun night at the movies but great for horror fans.
My only complaints--I got tired of the nonstop jumpy camera during the attacks (you don't know WHAT'S going on a few times) and the ending was sort of puzzling.
Still it's grim and graphic--powerful stuff. I give it an 8.
