Train to Busan. Had this to watch for ages and finally felt like watching it. Pretty tense stuff that manages to mix horror, suspense, and tugging on the heart-strings that the Koreans are so good at. One or two cliche characters don't detract too much from a nail-biting ride. The bit where they crawl along the luggage racks above the zombies' heads in the darkness is one of the best scenes i've seen for a while.
Not too much grue on offer, but enough to let you know it isn't family viewing. If they'd upped the gore content, might have been looking at one of the best zombie flicks ever. As it is, the tone is more World War Z than Zombie Flesh Eaters. Well WWZ turned up a notch, anyway.
