Grrr, 28 Days Later was *not* a zombie film. Even George Romero's films are not zombie films.

Zombies are corpses that are re-animated due to voodoo. These are not corpses re-animated by voodoo, in 28 Days Later they aren`t even corpses at all. Don`t forget, that apart from one exception in Dawn, not once are they referred to as zombies in Night, Dawn and Day, although it looks like Land has thrown that one out the window.

Sorry to be a pedant, but this is quite an important distinction for me. I was so happy when Tom Savini made the same point on the commentary track for the remake of NotLD.
