Danny Boyle's outstanding UK pseudo-zombie flick 28 DAYS LATER was a terrifying tale that seemed fairly self-contained... that is until Fox Atomic decided it was time for a sequel!

28 WEEKS LATER picks up a few months (hey, nobody told me there would be math on this job!) after the events that turned much of England's population into rage-infected fleet-footed murdering lunatics. Survivors have more or less been cleared out of Ol' Blighty, so in come the Americans to help "fix" the shattered country... and manage to cock it up royally. USA is #1!!!

The flick opens May 11, and here's a look at the new haz-mat inspired poster. The trailer arrives with Fox Atomic's other sequel THE HILLS HAVE EYES 2. Hope y'all got strong stomachs!

Extra Tidbit: Robert Carlyle (aka TRAINSPOTTING's Begbie) was offered a role in the original, but shows up in the sequel instead. He's a fookin' maaaadman.

OH YEAH
Also, the fact that it doesn't continue Cillian Murphy's story makes it less appealing right there. That's what I want to see. Whether or not he got out alive, maybe they'll make reference but seriously, who cares about some Americans? I want to see Cillian!!!

hmm
The first movie was great, however this is one of those "no one from the first movie wanted part of it" sequels which makes me question it. Sounds like a USA bashing movie, which I always dig with them trying to help but never do, but then again it could be the exact same as Hill have Eyes 2; Marines come in, marines somehow get slaughtered by braindead monsters...who knows, guess we'll have to...

The poster is decently cool. But it's not as mysterious or effective as 28 Days.
