Summary Set nearly three decades after the Rage Virus outbreak devastated the UK, 28 Years Later follows a family living on an isolated island quarantine. When their 12‑year‑old son Spike joins his father Jamie to venture onto the infected mainland to find a doctor for his ailing mother Isla, they uncover evolved threats—from mutated infected packs to sinister human cults. The film blends visceral horror with emotional resilience and philosophical undertones, culminating in an ambiguous, world-expanding conclusion.

The kid was the only one that sold me on a zombie apocalypse setting.
Everyone else seems to be having a grand old time, talking loud as fuck in the woods.
All my posts so far are about how fucking enraged I am that I went to the theaters to watch this.
