On Saturday night I made a post about how I couldn't find anywhere to stream 28 Days Later. It's not on a single streaming platform. The first post didn't get a lot of replies but I wanted to give an update in case anyone had any knowledge of what happened to this movie.

Next comes a generous collection of "Deleted Scenes and Alternate Endings" that also include optional director commentary. Although the six deleted scenes (9 minutes) don't add much to the proceedings, the real value here lies in the bleak alternate endings (13 minutes). The three endings that were available on the standard DVD (the fourth is exclusive to this Blu-ray edition -- see below) provide an interesting glimpse into the minds of the filmmakers but don't have an affect on my opinion of the overall film. The only slight disappointment in the bunch is "Unfilmed." The concept for this logical ending is fascinating, but you’ll need to bring your imagination, as it’s presented here using storyboards and voiceovers only. Alternative Theatrical Ending (with optional audio commentary by Danny Boyle and Alex Garland) (4:29) Worst thing is, the end scene is actually shot on film and looks great, so Danny Boyle had access to correct cameras and chose to shot 99% of the movie with a 480p camera for what seems like an artistic decision. A very poor decision, that makes the movie unwatchable on a modern 4K TV. And impossible to remaster. It could be a budget constraint, but I can't see why the director of Trainspotting couldn't get himself a fine film camera. A few days later (not 28, like 5...) a friend told me they had the Blu-ray at home so I borrowed it. Upon watching it, I thought there was something wrong with the Blu-ray too. The movie was as blurry and unwatchable, and my friend hadn't watch it before so couldn't confirm is that was right. I even tried to get the movie from less legal ways, just to see, but same result.

My 2021 discovery watchlist included 28 Days Later, the well known zombie movie from Danny Boyle, a director I'm usually really fond of (Sunshine is one of my favorite space movies). I rented it last week on AppleTV+ to watch on my LG OLED but it looked blurry as hell, and I stopped watching, thinking there was something wrong with my Internet connection or the stream.

picture is what it is and this disc represents it as well as you will ever see it. This 1080p Blu-ray is Let me get this out of the way right up front -- zombies shouldn't run. The undead should be lumbering creatures of instinct that overwhelm their victims, instead of running them down. Slow zombies not only ratchet up the tension, but they allow for more carefully plotted character development. Utterly disappointing" is the only phrase that comes to mind at the moment. This Blu-ray edition of '28 Days Later' arrives with a hazy 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 transfer that's only a meager step up from the already-problematic DVD. In fact, I found the finalized image incredibly similar to the upscaled DVD presentation.I do know for sure the lesson learned from the original 28 days later, that humans can be a lot scarier/worse than the infected. merit of the strong, engaging story and not for the look of the film, which does add to the sense of magnificent," director Danny Boyle says in the featurette on the disc regarding his decision to shoot
