In late 2002, director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland gave the zombie movie the sort of resurrection it needed. As featured in our list of 100 Best 2000s Movies, 28 Days Later is one of the films to come from the early '00s that revitalized the horror subgenre George A. Romero kickstarted with Night of the Living Dead, and it’s not hard to see why. But even after all these years of hardcore fandom, I’m still in awe of the alternate endings that were considered for this modern and frightful classic.
Naturally I’m going to have to dig into what happened at the end of 28 Days Later. While the movie’s a couple decades old, it's still worth providing a warning for those who want to enjoy it freshly. Though good luck on that front, Cillian Murphy fans, as the film’s out of print/unavailable for digital purchase.
