One of the problems that this film has is that its extremely bleak and heavy going (at least until the tacked-on ending) and thus may well be off-putting to many viewers who can't stand the too-realistic narrative, which has no time for Hollywood sentimentality. But things get worse before they get better, with a climax involving gouged eyes and even worse things happening. For once the camera doesn't cut away and we're left feeling pretty queasy about it all.

Boyle gives us some very dark and graphic violence in such attacks, full of sickening spraying blood and chopped limbs shown in quick disturbing flashes. The survivors may still be alive but any thought processes are dead and they still attack as ferociously as any of Romero's creations. I say zombie because this film is, by all accounts, a straightforward zombie film. Shooting on digital video gives the film an added edge of gritty realism especially during the in-your-face zombie attacks. Although we all know that Boyle achieved his aim by filming early and closing off areas of the city, it works perfectly and nicely sets up the following events which take place in darker, cheaper sets and locations. The opening sequence, in which Cillian Murphy's sole survivor aimlessly wanders through an evacuated London, is especially noteworthy and one of the eeriest moments in a film I've seen in a long time. Although working on a noticeable low budget (the scene with the car driving past those superimposed air turbines is laughable), Boyle creates an authentic and gritty post-apocalyptic vision which follows through with the shocks in many places that Hollywood wouldn't dare.

Despite the clichГ©s, this is a fairly effective and gripping thriller from TRAINSPOTTING's Danny Boyle, an edgy film with enough ambiance and shocks to make it worthwhile.
