10 Horror Movies That Have Never Officially Been Released

2. 28 Months Later

The Collector 3
20th Century Fox

Another trilogy that never got finished, the "28 _____ Later" series kicked off with Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later.

Following the breakout of a virus that causes uncontrollable anger, London is left in ruin with only a fraction of the population unaffected. Cillian Murphy plays a bicycle courier who teams up with his fellow survivors to get to safety and earn that one final Deliveroo tip.

Boyle might have bailed on the follow-up, but 28 Weeks Later still got decent reviews with director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo in control. Danny wanted back in for the third movie though. He even said he had an idea for it in 2007.

Despite the film repeatedly coming up in interviews, his idea for 28 Months Later would remain just an idea. Alex Gartland, who wrote the first film, has also talked about these ideas publicly but has refused to give a definitive answer as to why the film hasn't happened yet.

Fans would love to see a third instalment in this series, especially if the original crew were involved. However, if Boyle and Gartland keep teasing us like this, they'll have a real-life version of the Rage virus to deal with.
