Just finished 28 Years Later and wow — it starts slow, but once it finds its rhythm, it rips.

Cinematography is stunning. Aaron Taylor-Johnson solid. Ralph Fiennes quietly devastating. Alfie Williams is phenomenal as the boy. And Jodie Comer? Whew. Not infected with rage, but cancer — a slower death, but no less tragic.

Now here’s a movie I hadn’t seen in over 20 years. Talk about a trip down memory lane: I stumbled across the same special edition DVD I used to own a loong time ago while browsing a flea market.

Even back then, I remember wondering what the hell this movie had to do with the games beyond borrowing names like Umbrella Corporation, Raccoon City, and the T-virus, and using licker monsters. Milla Jovovich has zero charisma, the plot is plain dumb, the style of editing is super irritating, the CGI looked bad even at the time and the soundtrack is just annoying.

And yet… in its own way, it’s peak early 2000s cheese. And I mean this movie has tons and tons of cheese. There’s no way anyone could take this one seriously. Resident Evil is one of those ’so bad, it’s good’ flicks. But mostly it’s just soo bad, haha. Geez. My brain hurts now.

#ZombieCinema is one of the best #ttrpg to come out of the story game era. It's written as a zombie movie #ttrpg but can be used to emulate any disaster movie style story.
GM-less, quick startup, start to finish in one evening, and it looks enough like a board game that beginners feel right at home. The state of the game is clearly visible on a common board, no character sheets. One of my two "go to" games that I use to introduce beginners to the hobby.
