This movie trailer… is amazing. If it were a person, I’m pretty sure I’d be attracted to it.
There’s also this nifty flash game on Fox’s official site, whose URL just happens to be http://www.foxinternational.com/28weekslater/viral/. Huh, that’s funny. I’m reminded of a post from the Brains on Fire blog which asserts that “it’s not viral until it goes viral.” I’d agree with that. And I think that URL is pretty goofy, actually. Why not /game? (Oh and P.S., if you play through the simple game, you get a very worthwhile extra and extended clip of the movie).
The storyline is an extension of 28 Days Later. The last of the humans infected with the Rage virus have died of starvation, London has been secured and sanitized, and families have begun to be reunited. Thanks to the U.S.’s military presence in London, all seems to be going pretty well. Except, didn’t they mention in 28 Days Later that there were reports of infection in New York City? Hmm.
Anyways, clearly the plot turns when somehow, the virus begins to spread again. Mutation? A hidden zombie? Biological warfare? We’ll have to watch the movie to find out!
Unless you’re like me… and read the plot line spoilers online. Oops.
