In 2002 28 Days Later was released internationally becoming an almost overnight success. A group of animal rights activists break into a government research facility in England to find chimps being experimented and the terrified researcher on duty who warns them the chimps are infected with the R.A.G.E virus. Not believing the researcher they let the chimps out and are immediately killed thus beginning the spread of the virus. Skip forward 28 days and we find Jim, a bicycle courier, coming out of a coma in a London hospital. As Jim wanders around calling for people he begins to collect food while making his way to a church where he finds people that have been infected. As he is trying to get away he is saved by Selena and Mark they inform of the virus and the devastation caused by it. After convincing his saviors to escort him to his home to check on his parents they discover father and daughter hold up in a tower surviving but running out of water. The group decides that, after hearing a broadcast on the radio, they need to go find a military group that has established a small fort to hold out against the infection. Little do they know that their troubles are only just beginning. Director Danny Boyle together with writer Alex Garland turned the zombie film preconception upside down by introducing new type of Zombie. In 28 Day Later they are fast, violent, and completely bent on killing anyone still human.
