**Horror express.** A week ago I saw a zombie film from Japan called 'I Am a Hero' and now this Korean. I have not seen a quality zombie film at the recent time. The second tier films like 'Cooties', 'Freaks of Nature', 'Scouts Guide...', all these were comedies. Probably 'World War Z' was the last decent zombie film I have seen and after that this is the one. So the timing of the film was another advantage. Since there's no competition, this zombie film rules. And not to forget the Korean style, they are among the best thriller film makers today. Directed by an Anime filmmaker, this is …

With a couple of the zombie movies I've watched recently, I've found myself able to go so far in my reviews as to credit the films for some modicum of surprise originality, alongside a rating of four of five out of ten. But it has been **years** since I've been able to say that I saw a zombie movie I genuinely and wholeheartedly **enjoyed**. Or I should say, it **had** been years, right up until last night when I saw _Train to Busan_. _Final rating:★★★½ - I really liked it. Would strongly recommend you give it your time._

Fantastic watch, will watch again, and can definitely recommend for those looking for a new zombie movie to watch. This one really had me yelling at the screen: I was heavily invested....until I was basically emotionally exhausted. I don't think I reacted quite how the director wanted me to react during that last act. This is a fascinating premise. A zombie outbreak that leaks onto a train (with just one infected), and these are "World War Z" running, 15 seconds to turn (usually) zombies. I'm staunchly against running zombies, but when you do something well, it is really hard to discr…

If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog @ https://www.msbreviews.com Zombie apocalypse is far from being a groundbreaking subgenre. The Walking Dead franchise is arguably the most popular show on Earth when it comes to portraying this supernatural future. World War Z and the Zombieland duology play that role in the movies' realm. However, all of these works fail to reach the always high expectations that come with a story set in a time like this. When people ask, "what's the best zombie apocalypse film ever?", one doesn't have a clear answer simply because there…

**Well worth your time at leasst once.** Train to Busan is an excellent zombie horror film on a train!\ \ It had great development, with character build to invest you in their survival on a zombie infested train. The pacing starts slow but by the time it hits full throttle you won't catch your breath, and you'll be on the edge of their seat.\ \ It's not the greatest zombie film of all time, but it stands on its own and is a good mixture of 28 Days Later (2002) and The Dawn of the Dead (2004), which makes this a memorable horror film you can watch again.\ \ I highly recommend this film…
