I was considering getting the Blu-ray version, but ended up watching the regular DVD instead. The PQ on the DVD was so good, if I do ever buy the movie, I probably won't be getting the hi-def edition.
Great flick, highly recommended.

I stood in Best Buy for several minutes knowing that a better two disc SE was going to come out eventually. I almost didn't buy it, but the package deal with Wrong Turn 2 made convinced me. That, and the fact that I missed it in theaters so I knew I would end up renting it anyway, adding the rental price to the eventual cost.

I had a GC to Borders, so I went there tonight. They had the boxed set of 28 Days/Weeks for $24.99 so I picked it up.
Can't wait to watch Weeks, after like 4 viewings, I began to really love Days.

Wrong Turn 2 was a serious failure IMO. 28 Weeks did pretty well. I was very disappointed that they used the cover they did. I was hoping for the 'Quarantine' cover that matched the poster, I'll be waiting for the SE

The first film had some decent moments at least.

My DVD is weird. Whenever there's fast action sequences, it gets all choppy like it's missing 10 frames a second or something like that. Some motion (like a hellicopter flying or people running) is ok, but other motion is completely choppy. Is everyone's copy like this? I think my copy of "28 Days Later" had the same problem, but it wasn't this bad!

And they tend to be very tough.

If this is far better than the first one i will be taking it off my netflix list,because wrong turn 2 was pretty bad. 1 or 2 pretty cool killings, but the rest is pretty forgettable. It only cost $7, but i think i will stay away from straight to dvd blind buys for now on.

Liked it overall, but '28 weeks' plot does suffer from a bad case of 'What kind of morons are running this operation?' -itis.
Definately need to find a hight-rez copy of that 'Quarantine' poster though. This disk is screaming for a replacement cover.

Missed 28 Weeks Later in the theater because I knew I would get it on DVD. I don't really want to pay $18 for it though and the 2 for $25 BB deal this week is good, except I know I don't want Wrong Turn 2.
I think I will wait for the inevitable availability of this DVD in one of BB's sales in the $9.99 or less range. Hopefully, no later than Black Friday, it will be in one.
