28 Days Later is a film I hold near and dear to my heart.

Creatures driven by nothing but pure, unbridled Rage.

It terrified, intrigued, and inspired me as a child, and two decades later it still does.

Naturally, Im protective of its world, narrative, and characters.

People can be infected with a single drop of blood, turning into zombies seconds later.

Whoever decided to intersperseRudyard Kipling’s ‘Boots’into the soundscape of the trailer is a genius.

It is a wartime poem which reinforces the themes of the film in some way.

Even in this brief glimpse, it’s undeniably haunting.

Or has the idea of infected starving to death been entirely retconned?
