Oh I didn't watch this part. I really didn't see why it was neccessary to include it.
rae:
Oh my god the eyes. That part felt like it went on forever :( When I wasn't open mouthed in horror I was hiding behind my hand.
I'm a complete wimp when it comes to horror films yet I insist on putting myself through it every single time.
Gryff:
Yeah, this movie was really fucking intense from start to finish. I don't think it was quite as good as the first one, but it was definitely scary, creepy, and gory enough to keep me happy. The zombies were great, the story was passable, and the opening scene was absolutely stupendous and worth the price of admission alone.
Sploilerz lol:
One gripe I have is that I thought they really missed a great opportunity to explore more about the after-effects of the main dude leaving his wife behind at the beginning. I would've liked to have seen how the family dynamic worked and changed while this huge crisis was going on, but instead it was like "I'm sorry I left you! NOW I AM A ZOMBIE BLARGH EYE GOUGE". The movie could've learned a lot from The Walking Dead I think.
amok:
This movie was awesome, and scared the shit out of me at times. Slow zombie movies don't really get me but the 28 infected are scary as fuck. Yes, I am a complete pussy.
I couldn't watch the night-vision bit 'cos you knew exactly what was gonna happen but it just went on and on and oh god make it stop.
Amazing film. Also, d'you reckon we're gonna see France get owned in a sequel or was that just a neat ending?
Johnny C:
To tell you the truth, I don't think it was a neat ending. I thought it was actually quite terrible. The film comes this close to ending with the perfect ambiguous shot but fucks it up. At first you're thinking, "Oh, will it be this way, or another?" and it's nice and open and leaves some room for the audience to go home and put their (delicious) brains to use, but then it's like the filmmakers step in and go "Actually, fuck you, it ends this way." It wasn't in keeping with the rest of the movie at all.
Most of my comments in this thread make it look like I didn't love the movie. I really did, it just irritated me in a couple of respects, this being one of them.
