This is why 28 Weeks Later is such a haunting yet underrated pandemic film.

The plethora of COVID-19 vaccines that have been developed since the pandemic, which have overwhelmingly been proven to be effective in reducing the risk of transmission, are fought against by fringe groups. Both the government and a sizable portion of the world have agreed that the virus is no longer a big deal even the bare minimum of transmission prevention isn’t necessary anymore. However, the world is not the same as it was two years ago.

The movie seemingly predicted the widespread panic and conspiratorial speculation that the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in. Although the pandemic film subgenre is not lacking in entries, Contagion, in particular, gained massive popularity in the early days of COVID-19. The film reveals that an innocuous handshake was the cause of a global pandemic. Steven Soderbergh’s 2011 film Contagion centers around a similarly mysterious virus and the seemingly futile attempts to eradicate it. The idea that one small event can quickly devolve into complete chaos is far from a unique storytelling method. The Rage Virus comes back with a bloody and claustrophobic vengeance. After a reunion kiss goes terribly wrong, thanks to the family patriarch Don (Robert Carlyle), every protection protocol and barrier in District One falls. The question that needs to be answered is why she hasn’t exhibited the side effects of the Rage Virus. She is then quickly taken into the compound for experimentation. Tammy and Andy sneak out of District One and stumble across their lost mother, Alice (Catherine McCormack). Unfortunately, these precautions are not put into effect.

While obviously not an ideal situation, survivors like siblings Tammy (Imogen Poots) and Andy (Mackintosh Muggleton) still have the chance at a comfortable life as they heal from the obvious trauma caused by a massive Rage outbreak. Meanwhile, scientists are working to figure out the secrets of the Rage Virus to create a potential cure for it. Both British and American forces patrol the safe zone known as District One. Amidst the dropping number of infected, NATO began reclaiming the region to rebuild society as much as it can.
Directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, it depicts a world where the zombie-like victims of the Rage Virus slowly died of starvation after its initial outbreak throughout Britain. This general apathy towards COVID-19 makes the fifteenth anniversary of one of the best horror sequels of the 2000s much more timely.Ģ8 Weeks Later, released on this day in 2007, is the anticipated follow-up to Danny Boyle’s harrowing 2002 horror 28 Days Later.
It seems that as soon as they believe the pandemic is dying down, infections spike as the regulations and restrictions made to curb the spread are revoked. A central one is the handling of the virus’ spread by worldwide governments. There are many reasons why the disease hasn’t been eradicated or controlled yet. The CDC reports that the United States alone has accumulated over 80 million cases and 981,748 deaths over this time frame. The world has known about COVID-19 for more than two years as of this writing. Mandatory Credit: Photo by Susie Allnut/Fox Atomic/Dna/Uk Film Council/Kobal/Shutterstock (5881696i)
