Code Red

Rating: 7/10 (3 August 2009)

I'm not too sure, but i might have preferred this one to the first one 28 days later. Point is I liked them both at the end of the day. This did something for me, struck a new chord. I would not call this a zombie movie though. Zombies are the living dead, you shoot then and they get back up again, these are infected humans, infected with rage. This one is bizarre. Love it from beginning to end, it does have that Hitchcock touch to it, like in psycho the hero, the trail you been following gets smacked out of the picture and you find yourself in new case scenarios. Here at one point, just when we think that things might be turning for the better, all hell suddenly breaks loose and you not just trying to survive against the infected, but the snipers too. What brings the infection back is someone somewhat immune to it, but a carrier, just a kiss will do the job. There is a part of this film reminiscent of the Jews in the extermination camps. I would not be in the least bit surprised to see yet another continuation, say 28 months later and what not, most worth it, great project, very courageous.
