In Episode 29 of Hate to Interrupt, we dive into the rage-fueled world of 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later—two landmark films that helped redefine zombie horror for the 21st century. We break down the gritty intensity of Danny Boyle’s original, its influence on the genre, and how the sequel expands the chaos on a larger scale.
Do both films hold up? Which one delivers the stronger scares, and what do they say about society in crisis? We explore the emotional weight, the brutal action, and the terrifying realism that makes these films so unforgettable.
Whether you're a longtime fan or revisiting these apocalyptic thrillers, this episode is packed with infection, intensity, and in-depth analysis. Tune in and join the horde!

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want?

Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
