Released June 27, 2003 in the U.S.
Director: Danny Boyle
Domestic Box Office Gross:$45 Million
Running Time: 1 Hour 43 Minutes
Starring Cillian Murphy

Why You Should Watch It: Before Danny Boyle was an Oscar winning director, he made this visual sci-fi horror film starring a young Cillian Murphy.  The movie took the idea of "zombie" survival and modernized it using the idea of a virus to cause the horror.  And horror it did cause, as this movie scared the hell out of people when it was released.
