WHILE BELATED HORROR SEQUEL HAS ITS MOMENTS, THERE'S A LACK OF BITE COMPARED TO WHAT'S GONE BEFORE

28 YEARS LATER (15)

★★★☆☆

REVIEWS BY DAMON SMITH

IN THE 23 years since Cillian Murphy's revived coma patient wandered through an eerily deserted London in 28 Days Later, zombified predators have infected popular culture to the point of weary saturation.

Director Danny Boyle and screen-writer Alex Garland reunite for a sporadically grisly third chapter of the horror franchise, which arrives late to the gore-laden party and struggles to justify its belated RSVP.

Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), wife Isla (Jodie Comer) and 12-year-old son Spike (Alfie Williams) live on Holy Island off the north east coast of England.
