28 Years Later Review: "Enough terror, splatter and suspense to satisfy”

An Infected in 28 Years Later.

Not to quibble, but it has only been 23 years since Danny Boyle (director) and Alex Garland (writer) first teamed up to give zombie horror an adrenalized makeover in the original 28 Days Later. Most of us, though, would hardly begrudge them for resuscitating their blood-drenched franchise five years ahead of schedule – even if the result does largely ignore 2007’s 28 Weeks Later and its foreboding Parisian finale.
