After scaring up an impressive $150 million worldwide, making it the third highest grossing horror movie of the year so far, Danny Boyle’s long-awaited sequel 28 Years Later has made its way home this week. You can now purchase or rent the film on Premium VOD outlets including Amazon, with a digital rental costing $19.99 and a purchase running you $24.99.
The long awaited sequel to 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later puts Danny Boyle back in the director’s chair, with Alex Garland (28 Days Later, Ex Machina, Annihilation) scripting.
In 28 Years Later, “It’s been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.”

Meagan Navarro wrote in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “This riveting blend of horror and heart also reminds that death, horror’s favorite equalizer, can be as beautiful as it can be cruel.”
The second installment in this new trilogy will release in theaters on January 16, 2026. It’s titled 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, and it’s directed by Nia DaCosta (Candyman).
