'28 Days Later' to add a second, darker ending
Twenty-eight days after exposing audiences to director Danny Boyle's apocalyptic horror film "28 Days Later," Fox Searchlight will infect movie theaters nationwide with a grimmer alternate ending.
Beginning July 25, audiences who view the entire film through the end credits will see a title card that reads "...what if" before playing the more downbeat alternative conclusion, which runs approximately four-and-a-half minutes.
The darker ending's poor testing with preview audiences prompted a switch to the current ending, which was the original scripted version, according to the Los Angeles Times. "We can't do this to people, because it was such a tough journey anyway," Boyle tells the newspaper he had decided.
But now, the gloomier ending, already available on British DVDs, is back for audiences to decide which conclusion they prefer.
"28 Days Later" is the post-apocalyptic tale about an powerful virus that spreads to epidemic proportions in Britain, killing all but a handful of survivors. The unusual virus has psychological effects, turning the infected into zombie-like beings locked into a permanent state of murderous rage. Directed by Boyle, the film is a critical and commercial success, grossing $30 million in the U.S.
