Bone Temple Surges to the Franchise's Best Chapter Yet

TL;DR Summary
Ralph Fiennes and Jack O’Connell anchor 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, a kinetic fourth chapter that, surprisingly, makes the undead almost secondary to tense human clashes under Nia DaCosta’s direction; the film introduces a Clockwork-Orangey non-infected gang led by Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal and features Dr Ian Kelson contending with a rampaging alpha zombie named Samson, while Spike on Holy Island witnesses the brutal world these characters inhabit. A standout moment is Fiennes dancing to Iron Maiden’s The Number of the Beast, and the movie opens January 15 in Australia and January 16 in the UK and US.
