How to Beat the RAGE-VIRUS in 28 DAYS LATER

"The pathetically insecure containment protocols employed in this lab." The lab in 28 Weeks Later: "Hold my beer."

Bite checks are really only necessary for more slow-burning zombie viruses. With the rage virus, it becomes pretty apparent who is and isn't infected within a second or two of exposure.

28 days later ? 1 hour video ? Long Monday ? Just got in bed ? Life is good.

Hearing Nerd extolling the virtues of a Tesco Express in a zombie apocalypse was not expected but I am here for it.

Actually upon thinking about it I think "HELLO" at the end, while definitely taking more time and resources to make was WAY smarter to do than "HELP" or "SOS" During such an apocalypse one can only EXPECT a bunch of help and SOS signs, they are probably littered all over the place in the grand scheme of things, wherever survivers are. HOWEVER, whos to say they didnt get overrun? So many help or SOS signs are made in distress. Nothing points to there ACTUALLY being survivors there over a potential hotspot of zombies from a failed attempt at survivng in that location. Meanwhile, "HELLO" conveys something different. That there are survivors there, and more importantly *that theyre not in distress when making that sign*. Look all im saying is if i was flying overhead and saw people next to a "hello" sign and then saw a "help" sign two fields over... i know which one seems more plausibly safe at a glance

With my luck I would wake up in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, with a zombie chewing on my leg

One thing i noticed about this movie, the part in the beginning with the priest - When he is coming towards Jim, he is waving his arms, like he's saying 'get out' or 'get away' throwing his arms outward. There are a few other examples but i think the infected have a semblance of their former self, with is a really interesting horrifyingly subtle antagonist trait, props to D Boyle. When i was a teen this was still my favorite movie. I had a dream where i was running from the infected and ran and hid inside a barn. I went and hid on the second floor, which was a catwalk against the back of the barn, visible to the entire ground level. As I was hiding, one infected entered the barn, looked around for a moment, and went behind a hayble. Then just stayed there. Still twitching, drooling, and making zombie sounds. The infected had some intelligence, or control of themself, enough to hide and wait - even in the state of rage - to catch their prey. Which is what terrified me. Yotube comment doesn't do the horror justice but it's the best I can explain.

It’s about time. I was going through withdrawals. And I’m glad it’s a good movie that I’m familiar with

*scanning youtube for a 60ish minute video to watch while doing cardio* Oh, absolutely perfect!

The Fellowship of the Brain damaged? Shit like that is the reason this is the only channel of this type that I will even look at.

Sometimes I feel, that military in any kind of apocalypse (especially zombie kind) would be overwhelmed only when most soldiers would hesitate to shoot the danger, like some sort of very loud scandal, where a soldier would be prosecuted for lawfully discharging their issued rifle to stop some sort of threat, thus servicemen fearing also being harassed by the law would not dare to shoot the threat, not even if it would endanger their life.

"Jim is too old to be his type" took me a second to realize what you meant and I started dying from laughter

For some reason I thought this video was on this channel from the beginning, didn't realise you had never covered this classic. Anywho, gonna be a great watch.

18:58 in one of the 28 days later comic books, the infected base their attack off of smell, the comic explains it with humans be so saturated in deodorants and perfume that unless you’ve never use them, they can smell you.

12:13 You underestimate the power of a tidal wave of aggressively sprinting bullet sponges

There was a prequel comic (not sure if its still canon) that discusses the creation of the virus and actually shows how yhe activists learn about the lab. One of the scientists, the one shown in the movie if i recall correctly, tipped them off, but he thought they would come in and take pictures not go rogue and open the cages.

I love this portrayal of “zombies” as they follow the rules of thermodynamics, energy production and usage.

Fun fact about the laundry baskets: the director really wanted more buckets, but they couldnt find any more, so they had to use laundry basket isntead.

😂😂😂😂😂 Bruh, you went hard on Jim! And I am absolutely here for it! 😂😂😂😂😂

In one of the 28 days later novels, a survivalist/survivor comment on the fact that the infected are attracted to soap, perfume and shampoo smells. This is also how he get dispatched of an another survivor who hunt him. The protagonist throw a bottle of perfume on the survivor military jeep while he's retreating, and in seconds a horde of infected jump on him .

I love that you used a shot of Shadiversity in your video. That, along with mentioning people like Roanoke gaming and Dead Meat, is just the neatest thing to me.

In the original ending he was supposed to die at the operating table trying to rescue him. Movie goers found the ending to depressing since ''the good guy always win'' so they made that alternative ending that he woke up in the cabin

I think they put Hello to signal they are alive and normal. Any rescuer would have seen thousands of Help and SOS only to see infected nearby or corpses everywhere

The Fellowship of the Brain damage was BRUTAL

Personally wouldn’t choose an enormous metal tourist attraction in the busiest part of London as my base of operations. The power is likely to be out, and there are likely to be hundreds of zombies in the HMS Belfast, tourists who were trapped onboard when the outbreak hit. Don’t feel like clearing out cramped and winding metal corridors in the dark, in an environment which carries sound extremely well.

I remember being a kid when this movie first came out and having nightmares about that church scene at 8:40. Their reaction and body language to his voice was just so...unhumanlike. In that moment, you knew right away that Jim made a fatal mistake.

“Lady mcmonkey lover” sounds like a insult someone would use in the 60’s

What genuinely gets me, is that there are people out there who'd most definitely do what those activists did

As far as the basket thing is concerned, I'm assuming it's just a means of catching ANY water or moisture, at least that's how I always saw it, pure desperation

35:22 she must've really hated that guy cause she isn't that Cautious with Jim later on in the movie

The only idea I'd add to this is putting out signs when hitting nearby grocery stores, saying "Survivors on the Belfast" and maybe a time/place to meet on one of the bridges. Like "Survivors living on HMS Belfast as of [Most recent Date]. Access Ramps destroyed. Transport boats will be at London Bridge Mon/Wed/Fri at noon, Tower Bridge Tues/Th/Sat/Sun at noon. All welcome." If there are other survivors, it's likely that they'd also try to hit the grocers, after all. Granted it comes with the risk of attracting someone insane, but that's always a risk in extreme situations.

Lets freaking go you are truly the greatest and hope I'm lucky enough to use all your information in the upcoming apocalypse

Love how self preservation instinct, now has two names, the semi scientific Fight or Flight, and common name Common Sense.

Thank you for the video I’ve been waiting

I was just thinking last night about if you had a video like this! Super excited to watch

What a coincidence. I literally JUST watched both movies. Never clicked so fast.

Best birthday gift is a new nerd video. Much love

i've been waiting for this one🔥

56:09 OCOKA is an acronym used by the military to represent the five military aspects of terrain that are considered when analyzing land: observation and fields of fire, cover and concealment, obstacles, key terrain, and avenues of approach. Should always consider a this before engaging any combatant.

Nerdexplains coming like a deadbeat dad with these uploads

9:37 ‘Jims clearly to old to be his type’ Lololol😂😂

Finally! Have been waiting a long time for this video.

the bits about the priest are gold 😂💀

You'd need two lure boats an equal distance on either side, or your lure boat on one side might just pull zombies from the opposite side closer to you.

i was watching some of yall old stuff last night and realised you make a lot of 28 days later compariasions and then boom next day huh neat

YESSSSSSSSS THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED THANK YOU NERD.

Fantastic as always thank you

Been waiting a long time for this one. Dropped it just in time for me to enjoy it while I’m sick in bed.

Nice Vid, I just recently watched this movie and really hoped that you were ging to make a Video about it and 1 day after I watched it, bam! You uploaded.Perfect Timing👍

Yes! I’ve been waiting for this one ever since he covered 28 weeks later

omg you dont know how long i been waiting for this one you legend!

How long I’ve been waiting for this is crazy !

28 Days/The entire series is one of the few horror movies i look at and go "Ayep. no way to survive that one, pack it up bois" seriously, to even have a chance you'd have to be immune like Left for Dead protagonists

YESSSSSSSS. THANK YOU FOR FINISHING OFF THE REST OF MY WORK DAY!

7:54 "fucking" censored 8:02 "fucking" uncensored ahahahah

One thing I'd like to point out, even a suppressed rifle would be risky when running restocking missions. Since suppressors don't completely silence the gunshot, depending on the ammo used. Most people don't know about sub-sonic ammo, so chances are. They'd be using supersonic ammo, which still creates a loud crack once it leaves the barrel as it breaks the sound barrier.

51:07 as an army combat vet from Afghanistan…I would love to have a target rich environment with enemies who don’t shoot back lol…even more so as a machine gunner that’s a whole light of weight I know longer have to carry lol

Oh snap new vid drop! Appreciate that nerd

Surviving a zombie apocalypse on a World War Two Light Cruiser... That's a first for me XD

*IT FINALLY HAPPENED!* 🥳 I watch the video cuz it's hella interesting and well done, but I know I wouldn't make it against normal zombies in the city, let alone these running, crazy ones 🤣

Keep doing the classics bro!

I'm absolutely thrilled you did this movie's how to

Can't wait for the prequel of the bioactivists, 28 Hours Earlier. . .it's got love, drugs and a lack of common sense that'll make it the feel good movie of the year, 28 years later.

Waited so long for this one

A+ video. Great job.

Bro your videos are so fun

At 5:34 is that Christopher Eccleston the 9th doctor in Doctor Who? lol

That "what would you doooo" was so clean i replayed it like 50 times bro

I was wondering when you were going to cover this movie since you did 28 weeks thank you nerd 🤓

Dude I’ve never clicked on a nerd explains video faster in my life. 28 days later is one of my all time favorite movies. Can’t wait to watch you break it down

I HAVE BEEN WAITING YEEEEAAARSSS

Comas do feel like that, yes. Him being fully functional is iffy for me like 95% sure he wouldn’t been able to

In the comics thats included in the movie special features, its confirmed that the infected have heightened smell and can tell the difference between infected and non infected due to it

Keep up with the vids! 🤗

So damn hype that 28 Years Later is releasing next summer!

I was so happy when I saw this new video got posted and when I got to watch it, I was not disappointed at all.

It pains me to my core when they have time to fully print an issue of the newspaper after a zombie outbreak.

I love that he calls us "Nerd" xD idk why it makes me laugh every time

"this isnt the walking dead wher *people are the real monster!*" uh did we watch the same movie that is literally the entire point, how Jim slowly turns into the same monsters he is hiding from - evident in the scene where Selena cant tell if he has turned or not, with the blood all over his face - in essence the rage has already taken him over.

This video actually made me wanna buy some reycon earphones lol I will when I can afford em 😢😂

Such an amazing movie! Can't believe how long ago it came out.

I work in a Tesco Express, can confirm it has plenty of canned food. The one I work in would also make a good safehouse against the infected.

For your next video, may I suggest the belko experiment. I have a feeling you would be right at home with this one.

I come back to this movie from time to time, though I've got a yearly Romero marathon that I do. I've always been more of a fan of this than 28 weeks. Still waiting on 28 months :D The jet pilot at the end is definitely speaking finnish and bears the finnish air force insignia. This was very cool as a youngster when I first saw the movie, and i had to pause and rewind multiple times to come to terms with the fact that an english speaking movie has a Finland reference :D It's been a while since I last watched the movie, but if memory serves right, the pilot says: "Lähetättekö helikopterin?" which translates to. "Could you send a helicopter, please?" So the finnish audience got the 'Implied rescue ending' to the movie.

Hour long nerdexplains, that's the good stuff.

Thankssssss Nerd!!!!!

WHEN THE WORLD NEEDED NERD THE MOST HE DELIVERED!!!!!

Love the clips of Kentucky and Garand thumb when the gun laws were mentioned, 😂

How to beat the undead in Pet Cemetery How to beat the demonic horror in Pumpkinhead How to beat the giant snake in Anaconda How to beat the Wendigo’s in Until Dawn(video game)

OMG A ONE HOUR VIDEO OF MY FAVORITE MOVIE I LOVE YOU NERD EXPLAINS !!!!! FUCK YESSS!! i already watched ALL the 28 days later content / reviews on youtube already/

Jim going beast mode on those soldiers at the end of 28 Days Later is actually one of my favorite scenes. It's amazing, brutal, and a nice finisher for Jim's character arc.

Finally! Been waiting for 28 days and 28 weeks FOREVER

Kinda insane that Nerd hasn’t covered this until now

I can't believe almost 28 years have passed since 2002

Well well needs an 1 hour video hits our screens again. I’m on the road got my redbull and it’s time for the show!!

''The fellowship of the brain damaged'' im dying 😂 LORD OF THE RING AND THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE BRAIN DAMAGED! In Theaters Near You 23 years ago so dont even bother goin there. lool

38:46 those laundry baskets probably hold like an inch of water, better than nothing

It's the laundry baskets trying to catch rain water for me. 😮😅

Had my raycons for 5 years, still works great and they can absolutely take a beating
