28 Years Later

Set 28 years after the original outbreak, Spike (Alfie Williams) and his father journey from a fortified island into a rampaged mainland to find help for his ailing mother, Isla (Jodie Comer)
The film reintroduces evolved, terrifying infected: the lumbering “Slow Lows” and unstoppable “Alphas” especially the brutal Samson
Powerful performances by Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor‑Johnson, and a standout turn by young Alfie Williams bring emotional depth to this intense horror‑drama
Director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland infuse the sequel with a reflective, almost folk‑horror tone, blending haunting visuals—shot in part on iPhones with brutal societal commentary
The final act introduces the cult‑like “Jimmies” and sets up the next chapter, The Bone Temple, adding layers of intrigue.
