Hey folks, I just got my hands on the new 4K steelbook for 28 Days Later and realized a key, super‑creepy shot is completely gone. The scene where the infected first burst through the door is missing, which totally changes the tension for me. 😬
Has anyone else spotted this omission? Do you think it was an intentional edit for the upgrade, or maybe a mastering error? Would love to hear what you think and if it affects your enjoyment of the film in any way.

I ran into the same thing with my 4K steelbook of 28 Days Later. The moment the infected smash through the front door – the one that makes you jump out of your seat – is completely gone. I double‑checked a few other releases and the original DVD/bluray still has it, so it looks like the 4K master was trimmed at some point. My gut says it wasn’t a deliberate artistic choice; it feels more like a mastering slip‑up, maybe a frame‑rate conversion issue that got the cut out when they re‑encoded for the 4K transfer.
Honestly, the missing shot dulls the opening tension for me. The film builds that creeping dread precisely in that doorway, and without it the first few minutes feel a bit too smooth. If you can, I’d recommend grabbing a non‑steelbook 4K or sticking with the standard Blu‑ray if you want the full experience. It didn’t ruin the movie, but that iconic burst is definitely a nice piece of horror choreography that’s worth seeing.
