Mars Attacks! (DVD New Packaging) [DVD] [Standard]

Academy Award®-winning director Danny Boyle (Best Directing, Slumdog Millionaire, 2008) and Academy Award®-nominated writer Alex Garland (Best Original Screenplay, Ex Machina, 2015) reunite for 28 Years Later, a terrifying new story set in the world created by 28 Days Later. 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.

In this bleak and unsettling franchise entry directed by Nia DaCosta, survival itself feels morally compromised. A young boy navigating a ravaged Britain falls in with a cult whose charismatic leader offers protection at the price of sanity. Ralph Fiennes brings grave intensity as a doctor forced back into the nightmare he hoped to end. Written by Alex Garland, the film leans into dread rather than spectacle, asking what kind of society crawls out after the apocalypse.

Woe is poor Coraline Jones (voiced by Dakota Fanning)! With her parents too busy to pay attention to her, the precocious young girl ventures through a tunnel in their new house and finds an odd parallel world where Other Mother and Other Father dote on her and invite her to stay... if she's willing to pay the dark, bizarre price.
