  In this sequel to "28 Days Later...," a few survivors of the virus that decimated England's population half a year ago are in hiding in a dark, country farmhouse hoping for help from abroad. Among them are Don (Robert Carlyle) and Alice (Catherine McCormack) who are worried about their children–Andy (Mackintosh Muggleton) and Tamara (Imogen Poots) who were in Spain when the virus escaped from the testing lab. Now, U.S. troops set up a quarantine zone in London, and Don is finally reunited with Andy and Tamara. Don lies when he tells them that their mother is dead. But, kids being kids, they set off on their own adventure, leave the safe zone, and accidentally reignite the spread of the deadly virus.

Daddy's Little GirlAnonymous 03/01/2007 
  I love Tyler Perry's story lines. Daddy's little girsl are a lot different form work he has done in the past, but the movie was great and it delivered a very positive message from the male perspective. Thankfully, there are some great dad's out there! I kind of wish he had waited till Father;s Day to deliver the message. Overall, the movie was Excellent!!

  This British TV miniseries is much like "The X-Files"–for vampires. Vampires are on the increase, and a secret police team is formed to deal with the threat. Good, low-key acting and presentation.
