I was inspired to watch Train to Busan last night. While not really reinventing the genre it was a very good take on it, replacing the isolated cabin/farmhouse/mall with a high speed train that can't stop because the stations are all overrun by zombies! In the tradition of Korean films, it's perhaps 15 - 20 minutes too long and the later scenes of apocalypse were bordering on grueling! However, it was highly entertaining, kept the action at the forefront and turned into a gibbering ball of raw nerves by the ending

Was it sponsored by Nintendo though haha, a bit of overt product placement, 2 x Wii consoles and a blatant pack shot of a 3DS

Recommended!
