- Great Britain, 2007. A deadly plague, known as the "Reaper Virus," has broken out, killing hundreds of thousands in its wake. In desperation, the British Government evacuates as many survivors as it can out of the infected area, and then builds a wall, preventing the remainder from escaping. Thirty years later, with the wall still up and the victims all but forgotten, the virus breaks out again. The Government decides to send a crack team of operatives, led by Major Eden Sinclair, into the hot zone to investigate the possibility of a cure.
- A lethal virus spreads throughout Scotland, infecting millions and killing hundreds of thousands. To contain the threat, acting authorities brutally quarantine the country as it succumbs to fear and chaos. The quarantine is successful. Three decades later, the Reaper virus violently resurfaces in London. An elite group of specialists, including Eden Sinclair, is urgently dispatched into Scotland to retrieve a cure by any means necessary. Shut off from the rest of the world, the unit must battle through a landscape that has become a waking nightmare.
- I really enjoyed this film. So what that it borrows from other films? Half the films coming out over recent years are just remakes of Japanese horror films (e.g. The Eye, Shutter), remakes of earlier American films (e.g. The Hills Have Eyes, 3:10 to Yuma), or based on comic books (e.g. before Doomsday I saw a preview for a film about The Hulk geez how original) I loved the heroine, played by Rhona Mitra. She is as kick-ass as any hero out there and she oozes "piss and vinegar." It doesn't hurt that she's quite cute.<br/><br/>Don't let the detractors deter you from seeing this film. It doesn't have the same horror factor as The Descent and it does have a few flaws. But as a blood & guts, action, Sci-Fi thriller, it is pretty darn good.
- Mulligan Stew ... back in the bad old days, toward the end of the week, the cook goes to the fridge an drags out all the leftovers ... they are the beginning ingredients of "Mulligan Stew". It's an old "hobo dish" (whatever that is) made up of what you have. So it is that "Doomsday" came into existence. There's an embedded game in the movie ... see how many references to previous films you can find as the movie plays out. Sometimes this kind of homage, frequently, makes the grade as a trivia event but gets sloppy as movie. "Doomsday" doesn't, it lights up the screen, in a Tim Burton-ish dark way for the first reels, and can stand alone and proud as its own film. There are 207 entries so this one will never be read but all the previous film references apply: "Escape From New York", "Road Warrior", "28 Days", as well as Romero's Zombie films (in a scene played out in "Doomsday" but spoken in "Escape From New York" - "Somebody had him for lunch"). That may not be an exact quote but it's real close. There's also snippets of "Resident Evil", some "Blade Runner" thematics and I was reminded of a scene or two from "Brotherhood of the Wolf". Like I said, the embedded game is to find all the referenced movies in the film. Sometimes it's just a line, a scene (slithering tongue),sometimes it's plot. "V for Vendetta" seems to seep into things, as well. A movie like this could bomb so easy. Not a bomb. If you're grindhouse material, this is a film for you and you know who you are. We are. Me. Us. Loved it without apology. It knows what it is and who it's addressing. Solid gold delivery on that account. I liked it a lot.<br/><br/>"He'll know where to find me".
- In terms of story, “The Descent” and Doomsday are as different as two genre films can be, but the falloff in artistic quality is still quantifiable. Where “The Descent” was a slow, quiet, exquisitely modulated, startlingly original film, Doomsday is frenetic, loud, wildly imprecise and so derivative that it doesn’t so much seem to reference its antecedents as try on their famous images like a child playing dress-up. Homage without innovation isn’t homage, it’s karaoke.
- Thirty years after Britain successfully walled off Scotland to contain the spread of the Reaper virus, a particularly lethal virus that has infected millions, England is devastated to find that the virus has popped up again in London. Consequently, Major Eden Sinclair (<a href="/name/nm0593961/">Rhona Mitra</a>) of the Department of Domestic Security is asked to lead a team of operatives into the quarantine zone to find medical researcher, Dr. Marcus Kane (<a href="/name/nm0000532/">Malcolm McDowell</a>), who was last known to be working on a cure ...that is, if they can survive the survivors who have taken over Scotland. Doomsday is based on a screenplay by British screenwriter Neil Marshall, who also directed the film. Sinclair, Ben Stirling (<a href="/name/nm0604418/">Darren Morfitt</a>), and Cally Kane (<a href="/name/nm1769728/">MyAnna Buring</a>) are intercepted by a gunship carrying the new Prime Minster, Michael Canaris (<a href="/name/nm0641244/">David O'Hara</a>). He asks for the cure, and Sinclair produces Cally, explaining that she is immune to the virus and that they can use her blood to make a vaccine. Canaris informs Sinclair that he has no intention of producing the cure just yet. He would rather withhold it until such time as the virus has killed off the infected as a form of population control. Canaris invites her to come back to London with him, but Sinclair chooses to remain in Scotland and look for her mother at the address written on the note. Sometime later, Nelson uses that address to fly into the quarantine zone and locate Sinclair. She tells him of Canaris' plan and gives him a recording she made with her artificial eye of their conversation, giving Nelson all the proof he needs to bring down Canaris. In the final scene, she returns to Glasgow where she tosses Sol's (<a href="/name/nm0176660/">Craig Conway</a>) head to the punk cannibals, saying, "If you're hungry, try a piece of your friend." Realizing that Sinclair has defeated their leader, they begin cheering her as his replacement. The film gives three possibilities: (1) She stayed to look for her mother, (2) she stayed because she knew the hot zone was free of the virus but that London would soon be raging with it, and (3) she stayed to build an army amongst the punks to protect her should Canaris come looking for her. Crowd parties at Sol's show - "Dog Eat Dog" by Adam and The Ants.<br/><br/>Sol dances onstage with strippers - "Good Thing" by Fine Young Cannibals.<br/><br/>Sol dances onstage with men in kilts - "The Can Can" by Ariel Rechtshaid.<br/><br/>Talbot is brought out to the crowd - "Spellbound" by Siouxsie and the Banshees.<br/><br/>Sol's gang chases Sinclair, Stirling, and Cally on the road - "Two Tribes" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood.<br/><br/>End credits - "Club Foot" by Kasabian. The film's theatrical cut was rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). Later, an unrated version was released on DVD and Blu-ray disc, adding more story to the film. a5c7b9f00b
