28 Days Later RPG?

This idea will work best if a few people have seen it, although i could easily explain the backstory.

Bascially, i wondered about the possibility of doing a Role Playing game set during the events of 28 Days later. The films revolve around a deadly Virus accidently released in Cambridge which within days speads across the whole of Britain, turing most of it;s citizens into mindless rage filled people whos only thought is to kill any uninfected person they find. It's 100% transmutable, and by 28 days Britain has become deserted, with only the infect for company.

For those of you who have sene the first film, that story picked up after the virus was unleashed, and revolved around some surviviors trying to find a future in whats left of the United Kingdon. I have sene both films and i thought they were extremely good and extremely well written.

My idea for an RPG is simple, and im sure you have picked it up. We are a group of survivors, who had met up for a weekend away in England when the virus outbreaks, we are forced into hiding, and our goal is to stay alive and trying to find some means to find our future, or to escape from Britain and see if the rest of the World is intact.

So it's like our basic Zombie survival flick, ezcept this time there are infect Humans who are deadly and can't be cured, and only killed, It would be like only massive story, one big plot which can could do all at once or break down into parts. Im curious to know how people will react to the idea of throwing us into hell.

As i mentioned, it works better if everyone has seen the film, clips would be on youtube, which gives a better idea of what i am talking about, but i have no problem explaining it to you. I've felt a need to try to rejuvinate Role Playing on the forums. So lets try to be as diverse as we can, Torchwood is in the mix, so thats our Sci Fi backs, lets try to branch out

so yes, opinions people?
