For our 75th episode spectacular, we are discussing 28 Days Later, the 2002 film directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland that reinvigorated the zombie movie for the 2000s and launched a franchise that has been back in the news lately. We go over the film's links to Stu's favorite topic, Romanticism, while also comparing it favorably to such dystopian British pictures as Shaun of the Dead and Children of Men. We also note the similarities between the situation the protagonists find themselves in with our own recent experience of the Covid-19 lockdowns. A movie about isolation, civilization, and barbarism, for once, we both really liked it.
We open the episode by briefly discussing the victory of Zohran Mamdani in the recent Democratic primary for New York City mayor, and what this moment of hope for leftist candidates bodes for the future.
This episode contains spoilers for 28 Days Later but does not discuss the recent sequel, 28 Years Later, so if you are waiting to see that one, listen away.
