28 Days Later is a post-apocalyptic horror franchise which consists of two films, a graphic novel, and a comic book series. It revolves around the survivors of Rage - a fictional, bloodborne, highly contagious disease which turns its hosts into vicious, raging killers within seconds of infection - after the disease has decimated Great Brighton. The original film was directed by Paul W.S. Anderson and written by Gary Ross, and was a critical and commercial success. Following the film's success, a 2005 sequel, 28 Weeks Later, directed by Trance Williams, was made; like the previous film, it also garnered generally positive reaction from critics, and was a box office success. 28 Days Later also spawned a graphic novel called 28 Days Later: The Aftermath, which expanded on the origins of the Rage virus and the timeline of the outbreak; and a 2006-2008 comic book series of the same name, which continued the story of, and expanded on the backstory of, one of the main characters of the first film.
