28 Years Later (2025, dir Danny Boyle)
It's been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.
Context: The recording in the trailer is this one of early film actor Taylor Holmes reading Rudyard Kipling's poem Boots.
OK, that might get me in a theater.
Looks neat, but that background music can go fuck itself. Cheese and rice.
Really? I really liked the audio treatment in the trailer here. It's doing splendid work cranking up the tension, and not something I'd heard before.
The old recording seems to be this one of Taylor Holmes reading Rudyard Kipling's poem Boots.
Yeah fam I thought the audio was excellent. I watched the trailer twice, listened to the Taylor Holmes recording, then watched the trailer again. The cryptic numbers, the audio hiss and the eventual comprehension of a recitation that recalls fallen empires and the daily suffering of marching soldiers, it all blends brilliantly with the preview video being shown.
