28 WEEKS LATER



The film starts six months after the Rage virus has spread throughout the city of London. The United States Army has restored order and is repopulating the quarantined city, when a carrier of the Rage virus enters London and unknowingly re-ignites the spread of the deadly infection, wreaking havoc on the entire population.

Part 1 Part 2

TRIVIA

* Extensive filming of a "US Army Camp / Base" took place during the weekend of 21st/22nd October 2006 in the courtyard outside the Citypoint Building, Ropemaker Street, London EC2. A large number of tents with US flags, cast in military dress and vehicles were in place. Additionally access to the sub-floor car park area appears to have been given to shoot an underground scene.

* Danny Boyle directed some of the second unit filming.

* Robert Carlyle had turned down a part in 28 Days Later... (2002).

* The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff doubled for the interior of Wembley Stadium because, at the time of filming, the interior of the newly built Wembley was still under construction.

* As the snipers are shooting down the infected early in the movie, one of them shouts "This is FUBAR!" FUBAR is an acronym that stands for 'F***ed Up Beyond All Recognition'.

SPOILER: Series Trademark - Eye Gouge killing: When Don attacks his wife after becoming infected, he attacks her and presses her eyes in with his thumbs. In the film's predecessor 28 Days Later... (2002) Jim attacks and kills a guard in the mansion using the exact same technique.
