Make No Mistake - This Is The Greatest South Korean Zombie Apocalypse Film Ever Made.

Rating: 10/10 (15 April 2017)

After having watched the superb film World War Z(2013), I was eager to watch more of the same. Years later I got a chance to see Train To Busan. The quality of the film matches World War Z in every respect. Train To Busan has a different setting to World War Z.
The film is shot at a train station. Therefore all the action scenes are set inside and around trains. If you like films that are set on trains then you'll like this film. Examples are Murder on the Orient Express(1974), Narrow Margin(1990), Under Siege 2: Dark Territory(1995), Unstoppable(2010).
The supporting cast is superb. Gong Yoo plays the central character of the film alongside a host of gifted actors. Ma Dong-seok is another talented actor. Kim Su-an does a wonderful performance as a child-actress.
Note that this is a graphic horror film with intense scenes of gore. People who are new to this genre should perhaps see the trailer to the film before watching this one.
There is a companion animated feature film to Train To Busan: Seoul Station, also directed by Sang-ho, was released less than a month later after the main film.
Want to see more Zombie films? The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue(1974), Shock Waves (1977), Dawn of the Dead (1978), Zombie(1979), Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror(1981), Re-Animator (1985). C.H.U.D.(1984), C.H.U.D. II: Bud the Chud (1989).
Thanks for reading my review. Live long and prosper.
