Anyone else seen this film yet? Great stuff, scared the pants off of me and was a very interesting premise (although its probably been done before). The scenes showing a deserted London and the music in the background were haunting, and the acton was pretty graphic, very intense. It might be a good idea to eat after you see the film provided you still have your appetite!

Pretty spooky - loved the 'rage' virus and the blood.

Saw this movie tonight, thought the ideas were interesting, and it was kinda freaky, but I wasn't real impressed with the ending, although that may be just me, as I've been having issues with endings for a while now.

Sounds like a more graphic version of "The Omega Man"...

What was going on at the end. Who were they waving to and why?
I was dissapointed in the film. Could have been so much better. The original idea was terrific but the writing was bad and the direction was, well, directionless. I wasnt scared except for a couple of times when 'infecred' jumped out of nowhere.
A couple of questions I had at the end though;
Why didnt the infected attack and kill one another?
How do three people manage to lift up a London cab?

There's a "what if..." alternative ending. Nothing really special but worth the wait all the same.

Saw it tonight. Didn't mind it... Had some stuff I liked, and other stuff I didn't. The acting and atmosphere were good IMO, but I would have liked some extra exploration of the background story etc. 3.5/5 stars for me.
I've seen quite a few horror films this year but this one generally had me scared.
Great soundtrack.
