Jim was considered to be the breakout role for Cillian Murphy (born May 25, 1976). Murphy is also noted for his work as Dr. Jonathan Crane, the alternate ego for the Scarecrow, in Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and the Dark Knight Rises.

1. A dog.
   A rabbit.
2. A monkey.
   A rat.

The movie began in a primate research lab with a chimpanzee watching violence on television. Although the director examined many actual riots to develop this footage, all images with dead bodies were staged out of respect for the real people who lost their lives in the riots.

1. 28 days.
   A few hours.
2. A few minutes.
   A few seconds.

"Look if someone gets infected, you got between 10 and 20 seconds to kill them. It might be your brother or your sister or your oldest friend. It makes no difference."

1. Two.
   Three.
2. Four.
   Five.

Two men and one woman broke into the lab as animal liberation activists. Although Margaret Cavendish, Duchess (1623-1673) of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, was probably one of the first animal rights activists, the animal rights movement did not gain momentum until the 1800s.

1. The Empire State Building.
   The Sydney Opera House.
2. The Eiffel Tower.
   Big Ben.

To film Jim walking around London, including the scenes of him walking past Big Ben, the police would close off sections of the city at 4:00 AM and reopen them an hour later. They used attractive women to ask the drivers to find a different way home to help reduce the likelihood of them getting angry.

1. Rage.
   Hate.
2. Fury.
   Terror.

Rage is an emotion the exemplifies the most extreme form of anger. The Rage disease was based on Ebola, which causes outward symptoms that include bleeding, red eyes, and a rash.

1. Church.
   Gas station.
2. Grocery store.
   Government building.

The first building Jim entered was a church where he ran into a mass of infected people, including the first person who tried to attack him—a priest. As he was running away, Selena and Mark blew up a gas station and saved him.

1. Duck.
   Giraffe.
2. Parrot.
   Dog.

"A man walks into a bar with a giraffe. They both get pissed. The giraffe falls over. The man goes to leave, and the bartender says, 'Oi. You can't leave that lying there.' And the man says, 'No. It's not a lion. It's a giraffe.'"

1. "Ave Maria."
   "Amazing Grace."
2. "Abide with Me."
   "East Hastings."

John Murphy (born March 4, 1965) composed the score for the movie and included "Abide with Me" for the scene on the way to Jim's parents' house. "East Hastings" by Godspeed You! Black Emperor was used in the movie but was not on the soundtrack, due to rights issues.

1. Jim had to kill them because they were infected.
   They were in a car wreck.
2. They didn’t die because they fled to Paris.
   They overdosed on sleeping pills.

"They died peacefully. You should be grateful," Selena said after Jim found his parents dead in their bed from an overdose. His mother was gripping a picture of him with a message on the back.

1. Christmas lights.
   He shouts at them when they are walking down the street.
2. Party music.
   The smell of pies baking.

The tower block that provided the home for Frank and Hannah has since been demolished because it was condemned. In the movie, they hung Christmas lights on the porch of their upper apartment to attract other uninfected humans to them.

1. Champagne.
   Cognac.
2. Crème de Menthe.
   Irish Crème.

"Calls for a celebration, I'd say. Why don't you all sit down, and, uh, Hannah, what have we got to offer?" "We've got Mum's crème de menthe."

1. They were running out of ammunition.
   The heat stopped working.
2. They were out of water.
   They had cabin fever.

"Hasn't rained in ten days. You'd never think it… needing rain so badly… in… England."

1. He heard a helicopter fly over.
   He has seen other signal lights at night.
2. He saw a television broadcast.
   He heard a radio recording.

Frank used a radio to play the repeating recording of a man saying there were other survivors and soldiers. It told them they needed to make it to the "42nd Blockade, the M602, 27 miles northeast of Manchester."

1. A taxi.
   A double-decker bus.
2. An armored tank.
   A MINI Cooper.

Before leaving in the taxi, Frank turned on the meter, and then he said, "Just so you know, I don't take checks or credit cards."

1. A swarm of rats stopped it.
   There was a barricade.
2. They ran out of gas.
   It got a flat.

After driving over the barricade, the taxi got a flat and came to a stop. The director cast athletes as infected, which increased the dangerous feel of this scene because of the speed and agility with which they moved.

1. Terry's Chocolate Orange.
   Nestle Aero.
2. Kinder Bueno.
   Fry's Turkish Delight.

"If I never see another chocolate bar again it will be too soon. Not counting Terry's Chocolate Orange, of course." When they left the store, Frank set his Access credit card at the checkout. MasterCard bought out Access in 1996.

1. He found fifteen people who must have stopped to eat.
   No one at the diner was still alive.
2. Only one child was living there.
   He found two: A mother and her baby.

Although Jim walked past several dead bodies, including a mother lying on the floor holding a dead baby, only one child was still alive and Jim was forced to kill him. The mother and baby lying dead on the floor were inspired by an actual picture the director saw of Kurds who had been gassed.

1. Chickens.
   Sheep.
2. Horses.
   Pigs.

Four horses are running past them in the field when they arrive. Although monkeys can pass the disease to humans, most diseases can only attack a few types of animals. Therefore, it makes sense that many of the animals, including the horses and crows, do not become infected.

1. She was a bicycle carrier.
   She was a soldier.
2. She was a doctor.
   She was a chemist.

"Must've needed a hell of a prescription for that lot." "I didn't need a prescription. I qualified as a chemist."

1. They played cards.
   They did each other's hair.
2. They dis each other's nails.
   They played with dolls.

Selena and Hannah played cards while in the back of the car. During most of the trip, "In Paradisum: Requiem in D Minor" by Gabriel Faure was the background music.

1. Jim knocked an infected in the head with his bat, and the blood flew into his eye.
   A crow was eating a dead infected in the rafters above him.
2. The military shot an infected in the head too close to him.
   An infected punched him with a bloody hand.

At the barricade, a crow was eating a dead infected in the rafters overhead and blood fell in Frank's eye. The barricade was supposed to be 27 miles northeast of Manchester on M602, but the M602 only runs to the west of Manchester. Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, is 27 miles northeast of Manchester.

1. General David Beaty.
   Major Henry West.
2. Colonel Mark Hest.
   Lieutenant John East.

1. Roberts.
   Mailer.
2. Jones.
   Hopper.

"And lastly meet Mailer… Mailer, Jim. Jim, Mailer. Got infected two days ago. Mitchell managed to knock him out cold, and we got a chain around his neck."

1. Duck.
   Roast lamb.
2. Omelet.
   Chicken.

"I was going to prepare a toast, but this omelet will do just as well. To new friends… Jones, did you notice while cooking that those eggs were a little off?" "I thought the salt might cover the taste, sir."

1. Bury her dad.
   Escape.
2. Sleep.
   Die.

Hannah wants to bury her dad. The character is played by Megan Burns (born June 25, 1986), who was also seen in the movie Liam. Currently, Megan sings under the pseudonym Betty Curse.

1. "Friends."
   "The… Simpson's."
2. "Homeland."
   "The… Mentalist."

"See, that's what they're doing a few hundred miles away, across the channel, across the Atlantic. They're eating dinner, and they're watching 'The… Simpson's.'"

1. Corporal Mitchell.
   Sergeant Farrell.
2. Private Bell.
   Private Jones.

Sergeant Farrell was willing to risk his life to protect the women. Ironically, this scene took place in the front hall with the statue of Laocoon. Laocoon tried to warn the Trojans that the horse should not be trusted.

1. Good malt whiskey.
   Women.
2. Fine chocolates.
   Fresh meat.

"Eight days ago I found Jones with a gun in his mouth. He said he was going to kill himself because there was no future. What could I say to him? I moved us from the blockade; I set the radio broadcasting, and I promised them women… 'cause women mean a future."

1. He killed one soldier and used him as a shield.
   The infected attacked the two soldiers.
2. He laid down and played dead.
   He talked Jones out of killing him.

Jim pretended to be dead by lying in the pile of bodies. When he escaped, he jumped over the wall and lost his shirt on the razor wire. Jim spent thirty percent of the movie either naked or shirtless.

1. Another group of survivors.
   An airplane was flying overhead.
2. Frank's corpse.
   A pile of dead infected.

Although at the beginning of the movie we are told the virus has spread to New York and Paris, Sergeant Farrell stated that the rest of the world had just quarantined the United Kingdom. When Jim saw the plane flying overhead, it gave him hope that Farrell was correct.

1. He shut off the radio broadcast.
   He started shooting outside of the wall.
2. He sounded the air-raid siren.
   He threw grenades over the wall.

When Jim sounded the siren, there was a sign in the background with "M55 Blackpool and Fleetwood." This places the blockade north of Preston near the Broughton area.

1. They signaled a NATO search plane.
   Mailer infected Jim, forcing Selena to kill Jim.
2. Jim died in the hospital.
   Jim gave Frank a transfusion to save him.

Although Jim died in several endings the director considered, having Mailer bite him was never on the agenda. The most radical ending considered was for Jim and Frank to exchange blood, allowing Frank to live but killing Jim.
