If you watched the trailer for 28 Years Later<\/a> and felt uncomfortable, that would be because the backing music is originally from a poem that the US Navy still uses to torture its recruits.<\/p>\n

Though it’s yet to be seen whether Cillian Murphy will be reprising his role from 28 Days Later, although some have already spotted him<\/a> in clips, the third instalment of the franchise was shown on Tuesday with a trailer featuring the new leading stars Aaron Taylor Johnson and Jodie Comer.<\/p>\n

28 Years Later’s creepy music is actually a Rudyard Kipling poem<\/h2>\n
