@rocketpig, I guess Boyle didn't expect 28 Days Later to be so successful in America, so his plan was to sell the rights to a sequel that would be made "for an American audience" which meant dumbing it down and making it suck. So yeah, we should still blame him. I really don't get the logic. He said he wanted to make a film for the American fans of the original. So... why is it nothing like the original? And I love how he gets all pissy when you call it a zombie movie. Dickhead thinks he's above "the zombie genre."
@akuma, Ah I see. Can't argue your tastes then. Even though they're wrong. Hahaha, ::runs::
Romero said all his zombie films are social commentary. Having zombies wander around a mall lusting for flesh might be the simplest metaphor ever made. The only metaphor I could think of that would be more obvious would be a zombie traffic jam. But I guess that's a completely different kind of commentary, since it's the premise and not the "twist" or the boring second half. I think 28 Days Later isn't even about the zombies. I think the zombies are kinda the setting for the film, but the story is actually about the military duders. One man's good story is another man's bad plot twist.
