After breaking into a primate research facility, a group of animal rights activists discover caged chimps chained up before banks of screens displaying horrifying, violent images. Ignoring the warnings of the terrified researcher who maintains that the chimps are infected, they begin to free the animals and are immediately subjected to a bloody attack from the enraged creatures. Twenty-eight days later, Cycle courier Jim awakes from a coma in the deserted intensive care unit of a London hospital. He wanders out into a church where he finds dead bodies piled in heaps on the chapel floor. A sudden explosion from a makeshift bomb heralds the arrival of fellow "survivors" Selina and Mark. They take Jim to safety and explain to him that this infection is transmitted by blood and overwhelms the infected victim with a murderous rage within seconds. Britain has been overrun, and they have no way of knowing if it has spread worldwide. Their only hope of survival may lie in the hands of a Manchester group of soldiers, as they claim to have the "answer" to infection and invite any survivors to join them at their blockade. Faced with no practical alternative, the group sets out northwards, unaware that the worst is yet to come.

A zombie movie with a little twist Ð these ones are athletic Ð and a certain tension; nothing original otherwise, but very watchable.

Scarily spooky and brilliantly filmed
Most disaster/zombie/apocalyptic films are set in Somewhereville in the US, which is OK, they are still good films, but what really brings this film home is it ... read more »

One word review
I like to keep things short and only write a one word review. And the one word for 28 days later is: gripping.
Hordes of infected may yet again scramble through London, it has been revealed. A sequel to the highly successful horror movie "28 Days Later" is being lined up. Costing less than £5 million to make, the iconic zombie movie grossed five times that in the US alone. So it has surprised few that a sequel is being looked at closely. Provisionally titled "28 Weeks Later", studio bosses at Fox Searchlight are in talks with Rowan Joffe, who penned "Last Resort", to... Read more
