The movie trailer for 28 Weeks Later premiered before The Hills Have Eyes 2 this past weekend, but apparently no one bought tickets. Fox Atomic has now put the trailer online for all to enjoy.

Fox Atomic has released the teaser poster for 28 Weeks Later. The new poster, pictured to the left, looks like a government issued flyer posting. It’s a pretty unique idea, I just hope the Fox guys don’t have guerilla marketers hang these up around US cities (one must learn from the stupidity that was the Cartoon Network Boston Terror scare).

The film starts six months after the Rage virus has spread throughout the city of London. The United States Army has restored order and is repopulating the quarantined city, when a carrier of the Rage virus enters London and unknowingly re-ignites the [...]
I just got word that Fox Atomic will not be screening The Hills Have Eyes 2 for press. This is very disappointing, as I much enjoyed last year’s remake (probably a lot more than I should have). I don’t understand why Fox would be so afraid to let critics into the advance screenings in the first place? Could the movie really be that bad? Does the studio really believe that horror fans won’t buy tickets because a movie review they read on the inetenet said it wasn’t good? When was the last time a horror film got great reviews anyway? And how often do the badly reviewed films make big [...]
Fox Atomic has a quick rough cut footage preview of 28 Weeks Later. The full length trailer will premiere in theaters with The Hills Have Eyes 2 on March 23rd 2007.
I actually enjoyed the first film a lot despite the horrible mid point turn. But the sequel seems to lack the low budget charm of the original. Anyone else agree?
Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s 28 Weeks Later hits theaters on May 11th 2007.
The Tom “I’m not the guy who plays football for the New England Patriots” Brady-directed inspirational sport spoof The Comebacks has been pushed back six months.
May-be this explains why they only displayed 10-minutes in Aspen. The film had a lackluster preview showing at the US Comedy Arts Festival last week. Our friends at FirstShowing enjoyed the “special preview” more than expected, but is that good enough? My best guess is the movie needs some reworking.
But we do know this, the movie will open on August 24th 2007, instead of the previously scheduled March 23rd debut.
The official synopsis follows:
A hilarious comedy that spoofs the best inspirational sports movies ever made, [...]
Be warned, Fox Atomic is prepared to make The Hills Have Eyes 3 if the sequel is successful.
The remake of Wes Craven’s The Hills Have Eyes wasn’t half bad. In a world of post modern teen horror flicks, half bad is actually a good thing. When Fox Atomic quickly ordered a sequel, conveniently titled The Hills Have Eyes 2, we were worried it would suck. The teaser trailer showed promise, even despite the b-level plot. And now Fox Atomic has revealed the full length feature movie trailer.
