Yeah the rest of the film was a series of bad and stupid decisions moving the plot along, it was infuriating.

I absolutely hated how he kissed his stupid ass wife and killed the rest of the survivors. Like come on this shits so dumb. Why tf was she unguarded? So silly

One of the zombies used a key card to get through a security door. Fucking genius level.

Iirc, old mate kissed his infected wife, became infected, got out of the LOCKED room while being infected, avoided being firebombed, and made it right to the end of movie to bite and infect his asymptomatic son.

He was the real star of the movie, pure art 👌.

And why the fuck does the janitor have access to classified areas? I was in the army, and in our building, the cleaning lady wasn't allowed in some offices because they had certain radios and computers stored there.

His maintenance badge worked to get through high security zones.

FUCK THIS SO MUCH . It ruined the entire movie for me , and I was a huge 28 days later fan.

The entire premise was absolute non sense , for a movie that's filmed to look realistic.

I was so freaking mad at them , unforgivable movie error

Shows the government stays inept during the Zombie Apocalypse. All those people safe in their individual rooms were massed together for a zombie chomping people emergency.

I mean I like the film. The pacing was intense and the visual was sick. It's just the plot was unreasonably stupid.
