A few years ago I was really into zombie television shows and movies. There were a ton of them coming out anyway, but more than that I enjoyed the suspense that came from watching them. Zombies terrify me, but there are a lot of cheesy stories out there that just don't do them justice. I enjoyed the first few seasons of The Walking Dead because I felt like it really made zombies terrifying and unpredictable, but it eventually became more about people and survival. It just got to be boring and predictable and I was hardly on the edge of my seat anymore.

Train to Busan makes all of that feel like child's play. I was on the edge of my seat from the very beginning, and there were times I was practically screaming at the tv screen. I watched this with 2 friends and all of us were freaking out the entire time. What makes it scarier is that people don't really become zombies -- they become infected with a virus that just wants to spread. They're not flesh-eating, but they will do whatever it takes to spread the virus. It reminded me a lot of World War Z, especially because infected people move with almost superhuman speed and without a care for pain or destruction to their bodies.

The acting in this film was phenomenal. Every single cast member did a great job. Sometimes I cried, sometimes I wanted to scream, but most of the time I found myself just completely engrossed in the action and relationships that were developing (and dissolving) as everyone on the train to Busan fought desperately for survival. The ending made me ugly cry, and I truly didn't expect that from a "zombie" film. This was so well done and I can't help but recommend it to everyone that I speak to.
