What is 28 Days Later about?

Twenty-eight days after a killer virus was accidentally unleashed from a British research facility, a small group of London survivors are caught in a desperate struggle to protect themselves from the infected. Carried by animals and humans, the virus turns those it infects into homicidal maniacs – and it’s absolutely impossible to contain.

Celluloid verdict: Boyle’s rage-virus landmark made Murphy a star — still the modern zombie film’s nervous system. The film stars Cillian Murphy, Naomie Harris, Brendan Gleeson, Megan Burns, Christopher Eccleston, and others.
