28 Days Later [Blu-ray] for $5 + free shipping
Animal rights activists free a group of infected chimpanzees to horrifying results in this speculative sci-fi horror effort from Trainspotting director Danny Boyle. Waking from a coma in a deserted London hospital 28 days later, bicycle courier Jim (Cillian Murphy) takes to the deserted city streets in a state of mystified confusion. Joining forces with another group of survivors following a terrifying encounter in a seemingly abandoned church, Jim soon learns the truth behind the deserted streets and the menacing creatures that lurk in the shadows. It's soon revealed that the chimpanzees had been harboring a deadly virus that sends its victims into a furious, murderous rage, and in the days following the initial exposure, the entire population was nearly wiped out due to the resulting homicidal rampage. Is there still a glimmer of hope for humanity -- or has the deadly "rage" virus found its way to foreign shores and infected the entire planet? ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
Good price on a great movie, but don't buy this thinking you'll get a major video upgrade. 28 Days Later was shot on consumer-grade digital video cameras and doesn't benefit at all from a Blu-Ray presentation. In short, it'll look exactly like the DVD and that's as good as it's ever going to get.
@randymilleriii: Review from High-Def Digest confirms... http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/1085/28dayslater.html
Yep. Also, I'm not necessarily crapping on the Blu-Ray release by saying they botched it or anything. 28 Days Later isn't supposed to look shiny and new, and this release replicates that look as much as possible. It's just that the DVD pretty much did the job already.
And once again this is $12.99 on the site...
