28 Weeks Later
- 08 May 2007
Most sequels fail by scrupulously remaking a story that we've already seen. This fierce, frenzied follow-up to Danny Boyle's propulsive zombie movie works harder than that, abandoning the original characters (whatever was left of them) and acknowledging the real draw was a vision of Britain overrun with raging psychopaths (something we can all relate to). I'd be surprised if it doesn't overtake the first film at the box office. A tense, exciting prologue reminds us just how nasty this rage... Read more
US chart sees Spider-Man 3 stay at the top
- 15 May 2007
There was no change in the US box office chart this week as Spider-Man 3 stayed at the top once again, taking a total of $58.2 million (£29.43 million). However, zombie sequel 28 Weeks Later, which continues the story started in Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later, debuted at number two with $9.8 million, according to the Exhibitor Relations and Hollywood Reporter data. Comedy drama Georgia Rule spent its first week of release in third place, with the film starring Lindsay Lohan, Jane Fonda and... Read more
Panic on the Streets of London
- 04 May 2007
The zombies are back in town. In fact they probably feel at home by now. 28 Weeks Later is the third major British zombie movie in five years - with Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days Later before that, this is fast becoming a local specialty - like gastropubs and Richard Branson cameos. The Undead have never had it so good. Admittedly there are those who question whether the 28s are really zombie movies at all. This argument can get more than a little geeky and pedantic, but it boils down to the... Read more
Shrek the Third is number one in US
- 22 May 2007
Animated comedy Shrek the Third has knocked Spider-Man 3 from his web this week and debuted at number one in the US box office chart. With a weekend total of $121.6 million (£61.7 million) in takings, the Shrek sequel pushed the superhero action movie into second place and zombie horror film 28 Weeks Later into third. Featuring the vocal talents of Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy and Mike Myers, it was widely believed that Shrek the Third would be a serious contender for Spider-Man 3, which has Read more
Bridge to Terabithia beaten to number one
- 09 May 2007
Fantasy story Bridge to Terabithia is sitting at number two in the UK box office chart this week after Spider-Man 3 earned ten times as much in ticket sales. ACNielsen's top ten puts the spider-bitten hero at the top, taking a total of £11,827,013 in its opening weekend, while Bridge to Terabithia - the only other new entry - took £1,045,444. The longest-runner on the chart is Mr Bean's Holiday, which spent its sixth week in the chart, being placed behind Next, Wild Hogs and Fracture... Read more

  Danny Boyle's 2003 hit 28 DAYS LATER receives the sequel treatment in 28 WEEKS LATER. Few elements from the first film remain--actor Cillian Murphy doesn't return, and Boyle and screenwriter/novelist Alex Garland take producer credits this time out. In their places step director/co-writer Juan ...
