28 Years Later: The Bone Temple isn't just a sequel, it's a game-changing chapter of the entire 28 Days Later franchise.
, and so a lot of horror fans will be coming to the theater expecting to get the next chapter in the dark odyssey of Spike , the teenage boy who left his quarantined island home to explore the hellish UK mainland for the first time.
In, Spike has to learn that the Infected aren’t the most dangerous thing out there in the world: the twisted and bent beliefs of other humans are far more dangerous. Meanwhile, the sequel also continues exploring the story of Dr. Ian Kelson , who has been trying to learn more about the dreaded Rage Virus and how it works., Kelson makes a breakthrough that could, literally, change the world these films are set in.Reveals The Truth About the Rage VirusDr. Kelson’s storyline in the film involves him continuing his work to build a bond with “Samson” , the Alpha of the Infected who live in the area. After seeing Samson’s mate give birth to a human child, Kelson begins to have confidence in his theory that the Rage Virus doesn’t “kill” the infected patient and reanimate them, but rather it is more of a viral infection like rabies, whose main symptoms aren’t just the physical surge in adrenaline and anger, but also the psychological trauma of a constant overpowering psychosis, which makes the infected believe they are fighting demonic hallucinations instead of regular people.Over the course of the film, Kelson uses a mix of opioids and anti-psychotic drugs to gradually seduce Samson into seeking out the peace and calm of his daily dose. He tries to converse with the Alpha, teach him things, or scan for any signs of remaining consciousness. Just as Kelson is running out of meds and time, Samson shows a sign of intelligent thought, as he recalls the word “moon.” Kelson rolls the dice and injects a massive dose of his “cure” into Samson, which eventually yields the desired breakthrough: Samson’s psychosis is cured, leaving him essentially “human” again. That much is confirmed when the other Infected immediately turn on Samson and begin to attack him in the train car he shelters in. It’s also confirmed that being bitten, scratched, or blood spattered by the Rage Virus won’t make Samson go mad again. A nice advantage to have.it’s now clear why series creators Danny Boyle and Alex Garland have always maintained that the Infected areHowever, just because there is now a pathway back from the infection, it isn’t quite the same as a “cure.” Kelson died with the knowledge of which drugs to mix to cure the mind , so how Spike , Jim , or anyone else can make a cure remains to be seen. There’s also no guarantee that every mind can make it back, or that some of the more advanced and grotesque forms of infection can be cured at all. It’s also worth noting that as soon as Samson cured himself, the other Infected turned on him and tried to tear him apart. That all said, it just takes one person to get the message of a cure out to the world, and science could potentially do the rest., now makes more sense. That film’s big twist raised so many questions that now seem explainable.
