Infection Film Category needed

A new category of film is needed because non zombie films are being lumped together with zombie ones. 28 Days Later (28DL from now on) is about people infected with a virus, and do not fall into the two definitions of a zombie: a voodoo controlled slave or a cannibalistic reanimated corpse.

The confusion comes from the the film's plot- a potentially apocalyptic event where people attack each other/infect each other. However, the plot of the movie does define what something is, it merely defines a sequence of events told in the story. You could replace zombie with "infected" or "mutant" or "cursed" and you have the same type of film, but none of those films are zombie films.

If the subjects in a film do not follow the definitions of what they are, then you can't classify it as a zombie film. 28DL needs to be moved to an infection category and out of the zombie category. Larylich (talk) 22:23, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

The article contains several references that classify this film as a zombie film. Also, this article is already part of the Films about viral outbreaks category. Your comments may be better suited for the Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Film talk page. AldezD (talk) 23:07, 6 April 2014 (UTC)
And I have posted several links that refute the claim it's a zombie film. Again, everyone seems to be avoiding the point that this movie's virus victims do not follow Misplaced Pages's own definition of zombie, and have been avoiding it in their arguments for (literally) years. I admit I'm frustrated at this point, so we will see what can be done on the Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Film page.Larylich (talk) 04:21, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
