Our next episode is on 28 Days Later — what should we talk about?

In our latest episode on The Shawshank Redemption (out today), we announced our next episode is on Alex Garland and Danny Boyle's zombie not zombie film 28 Days Later! What are some topics or aspects of the film you’d want us to discuss? Let us know in the comments below and upvote ones you agree with!

Question: Danny Boyle and Alex Garland have both said Apocalypse Now is one of their favorite movies, with Alex Garland going as far to say it's one of his very favorites despite the Kurtz stuff not working for him, and both said that movie was a touchpoint for them on their collaborations together. Does that inform how you view 28 Days Later, and Sunshine if you're familiar with it?

Its impact

WOOOOWWWW (but I will def let you know when I attempt to watch this for only the second time and after not remembering it very well from the first time around -- feel like I'm in for a The Ring level experience maybe)

Hey Terry! It was a roadtrip vacation, so I was only in Oslo for two nights. (I'm actually in Oslo right now for night two, but about to go to bed because I have a very early flight out in the morning). Next trip to Norway I'll plan better! Your country is gorgeous and I can't wait to come back :)

Beyond the Screenplay

Unrelated! But if you are still in Norway, Michael, do you have any talks planned? Would love to attend! Huge fan in Oslo 😊

Question for Tricia—do you watch the movie through your fingers from the right edge of the TV or the left? 😂

What would you like to see next in the zombie genre? Also, what is your favourite type of zombie?

The characters in this are forced to take such extreme, violent action toward each other at the drop of a hat - I've always liked how the theme of trust/distrust drives characters' choices so strongly in 28 Days Later.

So happy you guys are doing horror. Can you guys talk about the minimalistic nature of the movie and how that enhance the violence of it all
