As I have said many times before, I am a child of the 70s. This makes me a teen of the 80s. And one of my favorite things from the 1980s was riding my bike to the local video store…

I have been a fan of Danny Boyle's films since I saw Shallow Grave way back in 1994. And then Trainspotting completely blew me a way a couple of years later. So when 28 Days later …
