No, the title is not a reference to a Sandra Bullock film. Well, it actually is a movie but is labelled as thriller on the DVD although I must add that horror/zombie would be a more appropriate label.

Anyway, I'm not going to go through the whole plot here since I can't explain it without completely ruining the twist. But the result is this: '28 days later' is one of the best horror movies I've ever seen. Not only the visual part is astounding (seriously, a deserted London...!) but the plot is extremely good as well (which is exactly what horror films tend to lack). It fits almost perfectly to my world view according to which homo sapiens is the worst of all species in the animal kingdom due to our thirst to cause pain and suffering (both mental and physical) to our own kind not because of our instincts but for fun. '28 days later' also shows men for what they really are which is, of course, always a good thing for me.

'28 days later' raised a question: why do we keep on living? Why not all just kill ourselves and stop reproducing (an idea I personally find very fascinating)? Why?
