So, 28 Weeks Later had been sitting on my DVR since the beginning of July and I finally got around to watching it. I remember trying to watch it when if first came out on DVD - because, zombies \o/ - but stopping for some reason, and it only took me about half an hour before I realized why I couldn't get through the whole thing the first go around. Now, I understand why characters in horror movies have to have a certain level of stupidity - or else no one would go into the creepy basement - but come on. Ugh. Anyway, I kept watching this time because of my new obsession appreciation of Renner, and then that scene happened, and come ON! Really?! Stupid movie. And then I had to write this fic.
