  • 28 Weeks Later (2007)
    Review preview for 28 Weeks Later

    28 Weeks Later... makes for scorching horror. Like the original, it offers a perfect blend of well-drawn characters, political allegory, grand guignol, flesh-crawling tension and very fast-moving zombies.

  • A Little Trip To Heaven (2005)
