One movie that’s been on every horror fan’s must-see list this year is 28 Days Later. If you didn’t get the chance to see it in theaters or just really want to watch it again, we have some killer news! You will soon be able to stream it at home! It’s coming to Netflix this September!
28 Years Later, whose trailer features one of the most chilling melodies in history, introduces us to a new group who have found a semblance of safety on a small island, connected to the desolate mainland by a single, heavily fortified causeway. But when a group member embarks on a perilous mission, they make a terrifying discovery: the virus hasn’t just mutated the infected; it has also spread to the uninfected, seemingly twisting and corrupting other surviving humans. This poses a threat unlike anything seen before, raising the stakes to an unimaginable level.
The film boasts a fantastic cast, including Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, and Ralph Fiennes. And in news that will thrill fans of the original, the trailer confirms the return of Cillian Murphy, who starred in 28 Days Later!
Danny Boyle, the visionary director who helmed the original 28 Days Later, is steering the ship for this sequel. His return promises to recapture the raw intensity and visceral horror that made the first film so impactful and truly groundbreaking.
But 28 Years Later isn’t the end for this revitalized franchise. The film is just the beginning of a brand new trilogy! Adding to the excitement, director Nia DaCosta (Candyman) returns for the sequel, 28 Years Later: Bone Temple, which has already released its first trailer ahead of its premiere this January.
Grab some popcorn, get comfy, and watch 28 Years Later on Netflix on September 20, 2025.
