: : was a remake. i heard that it was an old movie from the UK.
: This is the first I've ever heard of that & I look into horror flicks alot (especially zombie ones). This is a new film.
: : speaking of 28 days later - i saw it with my parents one weekend, and my dad said that it had a lot of similarities to "The Omega Man" starring Charleton Heston. don't know though, i've never seen it.
: Sort of, but not really. They're similar, but I don't think anyone would think one was copying off of the other. "The Omega Man" was a remake of "The Last Man on Earth" (which was the film adaption of Richard Matheson's "I Am Legend". "The Last Man on Earth" was a big influence for Romero's "Night of the Living Dead").
