This powerful, frightening film sees a deadly psychological virus accidentally released in Britain, killing the majority of the population and leaving the remaining survivors, infected with the terrible disease, little more than crazed zombies.

The main character in the film, Jim (Cillian Murphy), wakes from a coma in an abandoned London hospital to find the entire city a wasteland. He wanders around confused until he is discovered and pursued by a pack of the terrifying zombies.

He is rescued and, together with his saviour and other uninfected survivors, decides to leave the city and head for Manchester in the hope of making contact with others like them. But zombies aren't the only problem facing them...

Legendary director Danny Boyle and producer Andrew MacDonald, who worked together on Trainspotting and Shallow Grave, are reunited on the movie and, along with writer Alex Garland, who worked with Boyle on The Beach, have combined to make 28 Days Later one of the most memorable British films of recent years.
