[Sony] 28 Years Later

[Old_Nash_II]

First trailer and poster 

Well, part of the trailer reminds me a little of Crossed

I know there was days, weeks and now years, but was there Months?

Boyle x Garland still look solid.

Found it odd they didn't make that film especially since the Weeks Later was very well received. I recall seeing Jeremy Renner in it and immediately knew he would be a huge actor in his career.

That being said it's interesting we're seeing a return of vampire and zombie films in higher quality form.

Not interested in the movie, but this clearly will be a better movie for Taylor-Johnson than Kraven.

Thanks for the info, I thought I missed one.

Definitely. They already pulled Kraven from over a thousand theaters in the states and it hasn’t even opened yet

Damn, that looks great, I'm definitely in!

Was it? I vaguely remember the sentiment being that it was a letdown. I thought it was fine myself, even if it didn't reach the same heights as the first.

I forget what it's about, though. The only things I remember are 1) a horde of infected chasing some dude down the verdant English countryside to a boat on a river; 2) some guy kissing an infected (an unsymptomatic carrier?) on the lips while she's strapped down and immediately becoming infected himself; and 3) Jeremy Renner's character doing a heroic sacrifice moment and pushing a car down the road while getting flamethrowered.

Anyway, looking forward to this. Apparently Cillian Murphy is returning as well, so that'll be interesting to see. I don't think we see him in the trailer; I'll have to check again.

EDIT:

What's the voiceover narration? Seems to be reciting I want to say a poem, probably some old WW1/2 radio broadcast or something...

EDIT 2:

"Boots" by Rudyard Kipling. Written in 1903, recorded as apparently psychological warfare in 1915 by Taylor Holmes. (Not recorded to be psychological warfare, but used "for its psychological effects in US military SERE schools," according to Wikipedia.)

Brilliant mix, the voiceover is haunting:

Seems to be the new trailer meme now.

It works perfectly.

To be fair, the Godzilla teaser already was heading in the right direction.
