Well that sucks, I really enjoyed The Bone Temple.
Yeah, it's kind of sad that the first one was just setup for that movie which was much better IMHO.
Not the least bit surprised that people weren't super excited by the first to see the follow-up.
I enjoyed the first one too. I think it suffered in that people expected it to be something that it wasn't.
Did they retroactively change something from the end of the first one? They establish they aren't actually undead zombies, and they eventually starve to death. How can it still be a problem 28 years later? 🤔
No, I haven't seen 28 Weeks Later. Do they explain the discrepancy in that one?
No changes, and dont directly address it. In the movie the zombies population decreased but exists in small pockets that hunt and gather. They also have zombies that crawl around and live off worms and other stuff on the ground. So they kinda work around it instead of retconning.
They hunt and they give birth. They become a parallel human species.
You know, most of us don't call it "the back burner" and simply wipe properly, instead.
