Six months after the rage virus has annihilated the British Isles (from 28 Days Later), the US Army declares that the war against infection has been won, and that the reconstruction of the country can begin. In the first wave of returning refugees, a family is reunited -- but one of them unwittingly carries a terrible secret. The virus is not yet dead, and this time, it is more dangerous than ever.
I've always been a big fan of zombie movies and really liked the first movie. This is your run of the mill sequel. If you haven't seen the first one - you shouldn't bother touching this one because it's a blatant prerequisite to seeing it. It basically picks up 7 months after where the other one left off. In total, it was a pretty decent movie. I wouldn't say it's awesome or that it was horrible. It's comfortably right in the middle. The zombie scenes are great . . . . . although I could do without the new fascination that zombie movies have with the vomitting blood thing. Just have them look creepy and chase after the good guys. That's enough for me. No exorcist like projectile vomitting needed . . . . . . EVER! Anywho, the thing that held the movie back was the dramatic storyline. It wasn't horrid, but it definitely leaned towards the realm of blah. Especially since it was all dependent on our sympathies for the two kids. As far as I'm concerned, it was the two of them that brought the outbreak back so they could have died horribly and I would have been totally fine with it.
I would casually recommend this movie to any horror fan. It was a decent watch, but not a must see by any means.
