  1. Yeah, total thundercunt
    Did the virus delete all other cars?

  2. If you come down, we’ll go to town, I havent been there for years. But I’d be fine, wasting our time, not doing anything here…Just doin’ nothing…

  3. I’m gonna watch this movie for the first time today! In preparation for “28 years later”

  4. Bet he didn’t even signal his lane change either.  I hope Christopher Eccelston fucks them all up.

  5. I’d just enjoy flooring it through the 40/50mph limited areas on the M1

    Apparently they filmed it with loads of cameras and a short rolling roadblock, then used different angles to make it look like a much longer drive.

  6. Getting ready for the new one i presume. We did the same yesterday and yes brilliant film. But..it was one of the first films to shoot on DV cameras and boy does it look awful today. Very little chance of remaster either as bitrate is just too low.

    An AI upscale may work.

  7. That’s a bit like driving on the M5 looked during the first covid lock down, less traffic than Christmas day. It was glorious.

    Not the whole global pandemic thingy obviously.

  8. takes me back to covid, had all 4 lanes of the M25 to myself for a good stretch

  9. Finable offence that if the cops can be arse to pull you over

  10. Pretty sure they didn’t return their trolleys after the shopping bit either. Utter cunts the lot of em.

  11. They cut out the scene with the one other car coming up on left on the inside lane at 70. In that car the discussion between the couple, is along the lines of them getting annoyed he is going 55 in The middle lane and the left is empty, and trying to decide whether to undertake or swing across to the right lane, and overtake.

    They make the decision to go around, but as they over take, the passenger glares at Cillian Murphy, who just keeps staring straight on pretending he’s a good driver. The over taking car indicates, moves back over to the left lane, both shaking their heads.

  12. Peak UK outrage!

    Zombie ravaged apocalyptic hellscape and this guy drives in the middle fxxxing lane!

  13. I watched this for the first time last night, currently on the beeb,

    This scene baffled me, why wouldn’t there me loads of abandoned cars all over the place if people tried to evacuate

  14. I think this is a movie where they are running around London for miles without rest, food, water etc. if someone doesn’t know how far some places are for each other then it looks ok, but if you do it is quite funny

  15. Fun fact, at the start when Jim is walking through a deserted London, there was a pedestrian caught walking away from the camera in one of the long shorts

  16. Post this on the Driving UK sub, don’t say it’s from a film, say you took it from a bridge.

    So many users who go mental about middle-lane hogging but I’m sure do it themselves. “Fine for me, but not for thee.”

    In this instance it would actually be fine – no other traffic about.

  17. Good film though. Soundtrack was memorable as well. Frank was a beast in his riot gear
    I heard there is a 3rd one on the way but would be surprised if it was somehow better than the first

    Remember someone doing a remake of the empty London scene when we had the lockdowns, eery

  18. It’s great but it just looks terrible. I guess it was early days of digital rather than real film and the quality just wasn’t there.

  19. I can’t wait to show my partner, had her watch Weeks later and I forgot it had some big name actors, but I think ny dvd also has an alternative ending for 28 days later.

  20. If you look you can see the police cars used to block the roads for this scene, another bonus for them using digital cameras to film this, otherwise it would have been a lot more obvious!

  21. What? Frank was just following the lane etiquette of a motorway around Manchester?>! /s!<

  22. And for some reason it takes them two days to get there

  23. We had scenes like this during the pandemic, what a time.
