Decent movie, slot plot, poor setting, sad, unfulfilling ending

Rating: 4/10 (29 March 2020)

This movie gets a lot of hype, likely for the way people overly-fetishize anything east-asian at times. This was South Korea's first dig at a zombie focused film and they did fairly well for their efforts. The makeup and effects were mediocre, and the plot too, but overall it had a good basis and is worth a run-through. That said, I'm not going to sugar coat it, I've seen better zombie flicks, and I've seen far worse. This could've passed for an 80's flick, no doubt. There was a lot of cheese, a lot of poor effects effort, hell some of the zombies looked like their regular human counterpart that was shown a few seconds ago. No effort at all to try and transition them over to an undead state aesthetically. There were parts where I paused it to go do something else, out of boredom, just to come back to it and power through. Do I think this deserves the rating it has? Nah. It's good, but let's not go overboard here.
