Here's everything we know about the third entry in the iconic horror infection franchise known as 28.

Cillian Murphy straight off of Oppenheimer is now attached to the project as an executive producer as well as set to star in his original role as Jim again.

Danny Boyle who directed the original, but was on board as producer of the first two returns to the IP.

Alex Garland who wrote the first two, and produced them has already written the third film, and has said he will be writing the next three films after this one.

The movie is being distributed by Sony Pictures. It will be a theatrical release, and not straight to VOD.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson[Kick Ass], Ralph Fiennes, as well as Jody Comer have officially joined the series

Said to be retaining an R rated for the greusome imagery, violence and mature themes for the film.

No mention of Naomi Harris, Idris Elba, Imogen Poots, Mackintosh Muggleton, or Harold Perrineau from the first two movies, hoping they'll get a brief mention or some kind of reference because they are quite important to the series mythology now.

The films narrative will be returning to the ruined, greusome streets of the UK,

Said to be released in 2025, alongside other zombie related films such as George A. Romeros Twilight Of The Dead, a new Night Of The Living Dead film sequel, and Return Of the living legacy re-quel.

Questions I'll have when the film releases:

How will the American Government react after the brutal nightmare that happened during the second film?

How do the immune carrier kids fit into the story? Since they can easily spread the virus by their blood, or by a simple kiss through their saliva as they do not know it works that way.

What happened to the infected that escaped the UK and fled to France? Did they all die off from the starvation/thirst that kills them off afterwards or did the virus mutate so they don't need that now?

What happens to General Stone aka Idris Elbas role? He was placed with a group of military units in a secured, bomb protection shelter during the end of the second film, and for all we know he could have escaped back to the states and relayed all of the information about the virus, how it spreads and perhaps trying to contain it from crossing over Seas?

What do you think of the fictional scenario/premise of a zombie outbreak caused by magic?

As in one where it's at first treated as a viral outbreak and there is much frustration about the incurable nature of the "virus" until it is revealed that it's because the apocalypse is magical or supernatural in origin and that it's being perpetrated by a group of magic users, both Liches and Necromancers using the undead to take over the world and reign darkness and suffering over Humanity. You know, Sauron-level goals and desires. Their presence over the land they rule over being represented by massive dark towers looming over Major cities that fell to the outbreak. Said towers protected by wards placed upon them and legions of undead.

Like for the survivors and the "free" humans left, it starts off as the usual zombie apocalypse story but after the revelation, it veers into fantasy as it would mark Humanity's forced rediscovery of Magic, something previously dismissed as make-believe, in order to counteract and fight back against the plans of these dark lords and sorcerers.

Jist finished watching the original TRAIN TO BUSAN, loved it. What do you think of the other two, SEOUL STATION and PENINSULA? How do they hold up compared to the original? Worth checking out?

I am trying to think up a plausible origin for the zombie infection. After doing a lot of smart thinking in the shower I decided that the pathogen would have to be engineered and deliberately unleashed by humans, which explains how it can resist all modern medicine, have very specific and complex effects on its hosts, and be distributed to major international airports, so the initial outbreaks will be very numerous and widespread. Why would someone do this? Because they're batshit insane, that's why.

This raises another question: where would these terrorists get the vast resources they need to do their research, create the disease, and spread it to the world? And where would they acquire the live test subjects, which are probably necessary for making sure this thing actually works, while staying under the radar this entire time?

Every time I look for scientific reasons against zombies, it's always assuming the zombie is undead. But I think it's obvious that a dead person cannot become undead. What I mean by zombies are those who are infected, basically viruses or parasites and stuff like these. And theoretically, it is possible if not in nature, in labs. The thing is, there are already zombie-like diseases like rabies, CJK, or this one fungus, but it works only on small animals, and we humans eat them with no issue, even with health benefits. I'm probably overthinking things. But with the world we have today, it's war and more divided than ever and yet so connected on the internet. Theoretically, someone could actually work on one with unethical intentions. The media already lies, and it's not like a pandemic just happened. And that someone could get that idea. Weirdly, the pandemic also randomly just stopped. I guess even if that happens in America, the military probably shoot them. Guys, I hope I was just being paranoid. Please tell me your opinion on it. I think it can even go worse and be transmitted by air or something.

Reminiscing the good ole COD BO2/BO3 zombie days and I miss the constant gameplay/grind. Last online zombie game i’ve played was COD Cold War Zombies. Is there any good online zombies right now? Active fanbase?

I finished Dying Light 1 and 2. Played all resident evils. Any other games you’d recommend?

Seriously though, think about it, if you don't trim your nails, it will get annoying. If you don't trim your toenails, your socks will break too.

Witch Version Of the virus is your favorite?

the LAST STAND AFTERMATH is one of the hidden gems... if anyone likes zombie games then they should play this.. unfortunately it got removed from steam( i think its bcz it didnt make profit)
if anyone wants to play the game.. get it from steamunlocked.

I watched the 1981 classic Evil Dead last night. I can't help but thinking it isn't really a zombie movie, but a demonic possession movie.

Yes at one point they crawl out of the grave as demonic undead, but they don't bite, don't spread infection, have intelligence, and can be restored to normal with the flip of a magical switch. Not enough for me.

Is the Evil Dead a zombie movie?

What characteristics make zombies zombies as opposed to something else?

So it was the last day of school and our class got together to watch a movie and someone suggested Evil Dead Rise, but the teacher made us watch another one instead after the opening scene where some girl ripped some other girl's scalp off. That night I had a crazy nightmare of flying demonic zombies.

In the dream I was a scientist, I think, but everything else was still the same. Everybody was just chilling and going about with their lives, and then the fucking zombie apocalypse happened. Here's how it worked (Yes, I remembered almost everything from the dream, because of how fucked up it was):

• Anyone who dies of any cause will turn into a zombie in about 3 minutes unless their corpses are cremated, decapitated, or the head is completely destroyed.
• Zombies retain all the intelligence and memories they had in life, and a small trace of their former personalities. They can also talk and use tools or weapons.
• Zombies are all sadistic psychos who will hunt down any living survivor they see and laugh their asses off as they brutally mutilate their victim until the victim dies and comes back as one of them.
• Zombies don't need food, water, or sleep, the decomposition process doesn't start at all until they are truly killed for good (via cremation, decapitation, or completely destroying the head, and when I say completely destroy I mean completely destroy, so merely shooting a zombie in the face won't do you no good), they have infinite stamina, they can run and also fly, and they are immune to pain, sickness and most injuries.
• If zombie saliva/blood gets into your body, you will die within a few hours and come back as a zombie within about 1 minute instead of 3.

Now everybody I knew was either dead (as in actually dead) or dead (as in zombified) and the whole world was completely overrun. For some weird reason, my dream self decided that it was a smart plan to try to find a boat and head off to fucking Antartica.

And you know what the real crazy part was? It worked.

So my dream self spent the rest of his days holed up in an Antartic igloo research station with some other surviving scientists trying to figure out how zombies work (Spoiler alert: we failed because these are magical zombies completely defying science as we know it) and eating popcorn. Then I woke up. The End.
