| 0:07.0 | The Hello and welcome to episode number three hundred and four of real life ghost stories. |
| 0:29.4 | And to kick things off this week, I would like to say thanks to some of our newest Patreon subscribers. |
| 0:33.3 | I would like to thank Bernice Stepney, Signs and Stars, Joe Hardy and Stephen Janiceke. |
| 0:42.6 | Thank you so much for subscribing to the Patreon. I love you and appreciate you every single day. |
| 0:48.3 | And our film review this week, our film review is 28 years later, the Bone Temple. |
| 0:56.9 | The Bone Temple was released in 26. It has 7.8 out of 10 on IMDB and 93% on Rotten Tomatoes. Dr. Kelson finds himself in a shocking |
| 1:05.2 | new relationship with consequences that could change the world as he knows it, while Spike's encounter with Jimmy Crystal |

| 1:56.1 | with this film. She was a massive fan of 28 days later and wanted to like remain true to that raw grit of |
| 2:03.2 | 28 days later and she, she did just that. I think she did a phenomenal job at holding the reins |
| 2:11.8 | because Danny Boyle wasn't directing this one and I think she really remained true to what makes the franchise so great. |
| 2:21.3 | But I do think for me that the true star of the show here, again, is Alex Garland. |
| 2:27.2 | I just love Alex Garland's writing. |
| 2:29.5 | I just think he has such a finger on the pulse of creating a world that is violent and scary |
