An essential horror masterpiece!

TRAIN TO BUSAN is a harrowing zombie horror-thriller that follows a group of terrified passengers fighting their way through a countrywide viral outbreak while trapped on a suspicion-filled, blood-drenched bullet train ride to Busan, a southern resort city that has managed to hold off the zombie hordes... or so everyone hopes.

Many are reluctant to give this movie the credibility it deserves perhaps because it is South Korean or that the zombies are not categorically zombies and I understand (but disagree), but this film truly belongs in the horror movie canon right alongside the best of them. There is no other movie like this one.

One of the better zombie flicks in recent years. Worth a watch, though anyone who's into horror has probably already seen it, in which case worth watching again

Written and Directed by: YEON Sang-Ho Starring GONG Yoo, JUNG Yu-mi, Don Lee, KIM Su-an
