10 Zombie Movies Where Everyone Dies

10. 28 Weeks Later (2007)

In this follow-up to Danny Boyle’s impressive infection-based 28 Days Later, we see the military arrive to help save the day; brought in to help bring stability and preventative measures to help contain and control the outbreak in a desolate London.

Sadly, these “preventative measures” don’t seem to stretch as far as allowing a janitor to have access to a highly secure room. A room containing an infected victim, who just happens to be the janitor’s wife. Subsequently, all hell breaks loose, again. Despite the military’s best efforts the outbreak spreads quickly amongst the new population and the decision is made to firebomb the entire district, killing everyone.

28 Weeks Later certainly takes a new approach compared to its predecessor, managing to expand the story whilst focusing on characters sitting on both sides of the fence; characters you hope will survive, and usually do. However, this movie makes you doubt that, particularly given the ending audiences had to endure.

Just when you think a small handful of survivors have managed to escape, flying away across the sea heading to France (where it is assumed the infection hasn’t yet reached), we’re given a very brief visual addendum. A horde of infected people are seen running towards the iconic Eiffel Tower in the distance, as it appears the infection has spread across the continent.
