| Doomsday | comment |
Doomsday is a gleefully derivative post-apocalyptic sci-fi action movie, written and directed by Neil Marshall (director of Dog Soldiers and The Descent) released in 2008.In the present day, after an outbreak of deadly killer face-rot in Glasgow, Scotland as a whole is walled off and the general population left to... well... rot. The rest of the world thinks this is going a little too far, and respond by turning their backs on Britain as whole. On the last helicopter out of Scotland is a little girl who's just taken a bullet to the face, given into the custody of soldiers by her desperate mother...Fast forward to 27 years later, and that little girl has grown up to be Major Eden Sinclair, eyepatch-wearing badass cop. Which is fortunate, because the Reaper Virus has arrived in London, and the corrupt government is ready to send a team of soldiers north of the border in the hope of finding a cure. Eden has 46 hours to get to Glasgow, find the man who was working on a cure before the wall went up, and save the day.Too bad the surviving population of Scotland are not feeling particularly fond of the nation that abandoned them... | |

Genre Shift | |
| Doomsday / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: The film is advertised as a serious "after the plague" story kind of in the same vein as 28 Days Later, and plays it straight for about a half hour. Then we're off to over the top Mad Max land with an overnight in Live-Action Role-Play castle. Subverted, in that it does return to the earlier plot. There are scenes of the Reaper Virus infecting London and riots going on. An infectee gets Hatcher contaminated, hence the latter's suicide. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
| Doomsday / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The trailer lets on that this is an after-the-plague serious film. It only takes a half an hour of watching the film when you can check off every scene you saw in the trailer and things just get downright silly. You'd be forgiven for thinking this a zombie film, since the infected are portrayed in that manner. Not only are they more of a background event, most infected are actually just dropping dead instead of shambling around for the duration. See above for a subversion. | |

Black Comedy | |
| Doomsday / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: During the final showdown, a grieving Sol has had Viper's head reattached to her corpse and has her sitting in the passenger seat of his car. Said head later gets accidentally shot with an arrow by one of his mooks. Then, when Sol exits his still-moving car to have a shot at killing Sinclair, the vehicle crashes... and Viper's head falls off. That poor rabbit that gets gibbed by a sentry machine gun. | |

Rule of Cool: This film has, among other things, a cyber-eyed badass, foam grenades, "Good Thing", cannibal BBQ, medieval castle renovated and put back into good working order in the future, random Bentley having a car chase with punk-built mutant cars and then the punks climb on the Bentley and fight while everyone's still driving, Made of Explodium, nude chick with shotgun, exploding bunny, a random gimp (and a Gimpmobile), a severed head crashing into the camera, and the cyber-eyed badass going back to Glasgow and becoming the cannibal punk's leader by tossing their former leader's aforementioned severed head in front of them and telling them "If you're hungry, try a piece of your friend". And just about everything else in between those moments. | |

Quarantine with Extreme Prejudice: Britain sealed off Scotland to prevent the Reaper Virus from spreading by rebuilding the Hadrian Wall and shooting anything and anybody who approached it. At first it was with snipers, but by the time the plot picks up the government has switched to automated machine guns. It's also mentioned that Britain placed mines on the surrounding seas and set a no-fly zone. | |

Schizo Tech | |
| Doomsday / int_3c5ae1a1 | comment |
Schizo Tech: Knights in armour, longbows, steam trains, Mad Max-inspired death machines, APCs, video camera glass eyes, sword fights... One group of survivors intentionally threw out all modern tech, and the other group doesn't have the means to reproduce the now-broken technology. According to the director, this was the inspiration for the movie. He got a picture in his head of a medieval knight attacking a futuristic agent with gun and tried to figure out how to work that scene into a movie. | |

Every Car Is a Pinto: To a ridiculous degree, other than the Bentley. There's a Transit van that explodes after hitting a downed motorbike and a caravan that's engulfed in a ball of flame after being hit by a gimp-wielding tricycle. Inexplicably, when the Bentley tears through the bus, the broken halves of the bus burst into flames for no apparent reason as well. On the other hand, the police car that falls from a cliff surprisingly doesn't explode. | |

The Immune | |

The Immune: Eden and her team were sent into Scotland in search of a cure, believing that the immune survivors are proof the scientists abandoned north of the wall found one. Turns out that some Scots were naturally immune; among them the head researcher Marcus Kane and his children. However, a cure can be synthesized from their blood, resulting in the mad run to deliver Cally south in time to save Britain. | |

Scavenger World: Played with. The walled-off Scotland looks like something from a Mad Max sequel with no or few gunpowder weapons in use, very limited electricity and really ramshackle cars kitbashed together from old wrecks; the rest of Britain still bears a passing resemblance to what it's like today but seems to be turning slowly into this, as we see its authorities treat tanks as Lost Technology, which is justified as Britain has no trade with the rest of the world due to sealing Scotland off to die of the plague. | |

I Did What I Had to Do: The British government, sealing off Scotland when an extremely lethal virus with no cure or possible vaccine and leaving the entire population to die. They have no trouble with likewise sealing off a portion of London where the disease was discovered and leaving millions to die there as well. | |

Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond | |
| Doomsday / int_b55698cd | comment |
Normal Fish in a Tiny Pond: Of a sort. It's pretty easy to be top of the proverbial food chain (figuratively and literally) when you're the biggest, toughest guys around, but as Viper and Telamon find out, they're only tougher than the people next to them. Eden, unarmed both times and wearing no protection better than a tank top, manages to kill both of them while they flail their weapons wildly in her direction. Tough as they may be, raw force can't match up to military training. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
| Doomsday / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: One of the soldiers, while sitting inside his heavily armored APC, sees a female "survivor" outside and leaves to go rescue her, despite Eden warning him several times not to. The survivor turns out to be a hostile punk, who promptly sneaks behind him and slits his throat when he isn't looking. | |

Hyper-Competent Sidekick: Sergeant Norton is as capable as Eden in combat. If not more. He single-handedly escaped from captivity, gained the weapons back, fought his way through half of a castle full of enemies with a hatchet, and apparently knows a thing or two about electronics. | |

Waif-Fu | |
| Doomsday / int_ba72eebb | comment |
Waif-Fu: While Rhona Mitra is not exactly a waif, she pummels her way through a lot of much larger opponents throughout the film, including a seven-foot killer in full plate armour. Though it's considerably more realistically used than the norm: Mitra's character is a Fragile Speedster who dodges the attacks of bigger opponents, and uses weapons to even the score. | |

Improbable Aiming Skills: They are a prerequisite to pull off the villainous crossbow shot required to kill Read. It involves a moving vehicle, home-made crossbow and a relatively small smashed window. Somehow the bolt ends up directly in her neck. | |

No Ending | |
| Doomsday / int_ea2e9f2d | comment |
No Ending: The film ends on a weird note with very little being resolved. The UK is still tearing itself apart over the Reaper Virus, and the only real conclusion to that storyline is that Canaris is going to pay for his crimes. Kane and the medieval settlement aren't actually dealt with, and the only real resolution is that Sinclair is now the leader of the Marauders, but who knows what that means for the future since there's no sequel or followup. | |
