Train to Busan, a 2016 Korean zombie movie, is admittedly a great movie for those who love horror as a genre. But the film, which is set to leave Amazon Prime Video at the end of March, is also much more than just the basics of the zombie genre.
Recommended Videos It’s a horror movie and an action movie Train to Busan Official Trailer 1 - Yoo Gong Movie Train to Busan tells the story of a group of survivors trapped on a speeding train as a zombie outbreak spreads through the various cars. Because the movie’s zombies are fairly active and because the survivors are trapped on a train, the movie is both terrifying and thrilling in a way that many zombie movies never fully manage.
It’s also got plenty of emotion In addition to having all of the great action of an action movie, Train to Busan also manages to take some of the more emotional cues from the action genre. The film’s central emotional relationship is between a workaholic father and his estranged daughter. Surrounding that relationship, though, is a series of supporting characters that are all perfectly cast and have emotional arcs in their own right.
