Internet Review : 'Set in the United Kingdom at the beginning of the 21st century, the film concerns the breakdown of society following the release of a plague known as "Rage" (which almost instantly locks those who are infected by it into zombie-like creatures, a state of irreversible hyperactivity and murderous insanity), and the struggle of a handful of survivors to come to terms with the ruins of everything they once knew.'


Another good choice of film and not at all what I was expected. It’s a british film, when I expected it to be american and so the lack of 'car chase sequences' and 'romantic bits to appeal to the ladies' was an unexpected bonus. I would describe this as a thinking mans 'dawn of the dead'. I enjoyed dawn of the dead, and im not really a thinking man but this film was realms ahead of the usual zombie flick and the shots of a deserted London were amazing. 8/10
