28 Days Later
That Danny Boyle sure knows how to make a fine film, and humanity's inhumanity continues to be a rich source of creative fuel. 28 Days Later takes the concept of Zombie films and actually makes art with it while keeping the scare/thrill action intact. The performances are excellent -- I can't imagine many American actors being able to pull this off -- and the cinematography is brilliant. The best part is walking out into the sunny streets of Berkeley, and feeling a rush of relief and hope; the result of a filmmaker's job well done.
