Bone Temple Bridges 28 Years Later With a Lean, Mythic Sequel

Film critic Adam Nayman hails The Bone Temple as a sharp, self-contained yet franchise-ready bridge sequel to 28 Years Later. With Nia DaCosta directing and Alex Garland’s script tightening loose ends, the movie deepens the series’ mythic, post-apocalyptic world, centering on Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal’s cult-like insurgents and Ralph Fiennes’s Dr. Kelson alongside a standout performance from Jack O’Connell. Blending brutal horror, sly humor, and philosophical echo, it functions as both a taut standalone and a strong setup for future installments, suggesting this trilogy could become a cherished classic if the finale lands.
