What happens when the world ends not with a whisper—but with a scream of rage?

In this episode, Jon, Ryan, and Kearns dissect 28 Days Later, Danny Boyle’s raw and terrifying vision of a rage-infected Britain where the monsters are often more human than the infected. We explore:

🔴 Infection as allegory – What does rage mean in a post-apocalyptic society?
🧠 Psychological collapse – How quickly does civility give way to survival?
💔 Jim, Selena, and Hannah – A found family forged in horror
🔥 Myth, meaning, and moral decay – What 28 Days Later tells us about ourselves

With lyrical insight, dark humor, and eerie resonance, the Xenomania crew dives deep into the film’s brutal poetry—where apocalypse meets humanity and hope flickers in the ruins.
