28 Days Later (2002)
Danny Boyle transformed the hustle and bustle of central London into an epic wasteland for his revolutionary zombie horror film 28 Days Later, in which our protagonist Jim (played by Cillian) awakens into after a coma. Turns out, whilst he was asleep the world had broken into panic over a virus spreading rapidly, infecting anyone that comes in its path into crazy, flesh-craving zombies. Luckily, Jim manages to meet up with a rag-tag bunch of survivors and find safety with a group of soldiers in Manchester who claim to have the “answer” to infection. Mr Murphy might not be at the top of everyone’s list for who they’d want by their side in a zombie apocalypse, but after seeing this we’d have him any day!
