Spend sunday afternoon with a big box of popcorn, winter socks on and snuggle down to the Curzon Sunday Double Bill.

28 Days Later

Dir. Danny Boyle.  2002   Runtime: 113 mins

Low-key and realistic, 28 Days Later is a fun romp: Day of the Triffids meets one of Romero’s zombie flicks… It's not without flaws, the characters are a little two-dimensional but it is a good example of an end-of-the-world picture.

One day someone will treat the audience to an intelligent film of Earth Abides and be able to leave out zombie rages.


THE X-FILES

Dir: Rob Bowman,   1998   Runtime: 121 mins


A counterpoint to the low-tech feel of 28 Days, we have The X-Files movie and it is great. A tight script, good sets, locations and casting all impress.

You do not need to be a fan of the TV show to enjoy this, it stands alone very well. Relax and enjoy it as a scary and thrilling sci-fi movie.
