Ep. 333: 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple

Steffan and Gavia share their praise for The Bone Temple, Nia DaCosta's deceptively hilarious sequel to 28 Years Later. With Ralph Fiennes and Alfie Williams reprising their roles from the previous movie, Jack O'Connell joins the cast as the sadistic cult leader Jimmy Crystal, offering a new angle on the franchise's dystopian setting. Among other topics, this episode covers the film's distinctive lead performances, its exploration of post-apocalyptic parenting, and its wild final-act musical sequence.
