Secret ‘dark web’ 28 Years Later website is terrifying and this password unlocks it
We’re merely days away from being exposed to the Rage virus once again, with28 Years Laterdropping in theaters. If you can’t wait that long, a ‘dark web’ site holds some secrets, and we know the password.
Director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland teaming up to revisit a version of the UK ravaged by infection for years should be the best follow-up to 2002’s28 Days Laterpossible. Almost three decades later, some have found ways to exist amid the infected, including one group of survivors who live on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily defended causeway.
When two choose to revisit the mainland for a currently unknown reason, all hell breaks loose, though there are still some survivors lurking in their midst. We’ve all seen the viral snaps of Boyle’s unhinged iPhone rig, so we know the fights to the death will be more epic than ever.
Before we even see the newhorror movie, a secret lies in wait. Fans have noticed an in-universe ‘dark web’ page crop up with supposedly secret info, but it’s password protected… here’s what you need to break in.

If you visitRageLeaks.netusing this password, you’re logging into a fake admin profile you definitely weren’t supposed to see. With the sub-heading “What is really happening behind the blockade?” we land on a fake collection of files, alongside a countdown to 28 years (aka, the film’s release).

‘Narrows’ is the file you can see above, charting the Atlantic wall and evacuation preparedness zone in Calais. ‘Bells’ is an audio file of a broadcast picking up on church bells. Thanks to the trailer, we know a dearly departed father is about to get massacred under the guise of “judgment day.”
‘Pack’ is a heat map showing bodies (and corpses) of the supposed infected, while ‘Need to Know’ contains intercepted messages between an unknown party and Cytopathic, who claims to have access to lab reports.
‘Mayday’ is a Scandivanian transcription of an emergency transmission – feel free to take it upon yourself to translate this one – while ‘Aerial Recon’ shows the tower of skulls that’s become synonymous with thenew movie’smarketing. Then we’ve got a leaked email chain in ‘Variant,’ citing “behavioural differences” since the last time we were exposed to Rage on screen.
‘Life on Patrol’ is an Instagram snapshot (who knew they brought that back so quickly?), ‘Surveilance Report’ has eyes on one of the movie’s new locations, and ‘Msg’ is an anonymous text from a survivor.
How much these clues tell us about what we’re going to see remains to be seen, but rest assured that the true horrors that wait for us will have largely been kept under wraps. In short… we ain’t seen nothing yet.
