DRUNK CINEMA 024: "28 Days Later" Is Up!

 
"No, no. No, see, this is a really shit idea. You know why? Because it's really obviously a shit idea."
-- Jim, 28 Days Later

Hello again, movie fans!  My wonderful co-host Xan Sprouse and I are back with a new episode of Drunk Cinema! This time, we watch 28 Days Later, the 2002 zombie apocalypse film directed by Danny Boyle, featuring Cillian Murphy as Jim, Naomie Harris as Selena, Brendan Gleeson as Frank, and Christopher Eccleston as Major Henry West!
