That Was Longer Than A Heartbeat

No, see this is a really shit idea. You know why? Because it's really obviously a shit idea.
-- Jim from 29 Days Later

Slumdog Millionaire came out this on DVD, but I'm actually not interested in it at the moment. Maybe later.

If a Danny Boyle film is to be on the menu, I highly recommend 28 Days Later. The post-apocolyptic film has a great script and a brilliant cast. Back when the film was originally released, a few of the actors werent well known, but now Cillian Murphy (The Dark Knight), Naomie Harris (Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's chest), Brendan Gleeson (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire), and Chistopher Eccleston (Doctor Who) have made a name for themselves.

Then you add the soundtrack to the movie and everything becomes spot on.

The movie's theme just seems to fit the zombie/infected/undead genre from any clip. For example, here's the extended trailer from the game Resident Evil 5. (Turn off the annotation if you dont want to see the annoying embedded ad)

In The House, In A Heartbeat by John Murphy


Come to think of it, I still havent seen Sunshine, which also was directed by Boyle and stars Murphy.

Damn. I'm really behind on everything.
