Doomsday

Doomsday (2008)
Dir: Neil Marshall

A virus that devastated Britain resurfaces and an elite team must find a cure in the 'hot' zone.
Apocalyptic thriller that knowingly lifts entire sequences from the films it's paying homage to. Marshall is clearly a fan of films like 'Mad Max', 'Gladiator' and 'Aliens' and it's fun to try and spot the references. Though it occasionally struggles under the weight of its own ambitions, it's an enjoyable ride nonetheless.
