22 Years Later, the Most Important Zombie Movie Ever Is Finally Streaming

The horror sequel 28 Years Later is one of the most-anticipated movies of 2025. But how long has it been since you’ve seen the original classic that started it all? In 2002, directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland, the daring and innovative 28 Days Later utterly reinvented what a zombie movie could look and feel like. And now, after 22 years, the original film will finally be available to stream.

For various legal reasons, some great films just aren’t on any streaming services or are even available for rental.
