Me after seeing this movie on Amazon Video:
PLOT SYNOPSIS: (imdb.com) While a zombie-virus breaks out in South Korea, a couple of passengers struggle to survive on the train from Seoul to Busan.
Before I even begin, I’m going to say I loved this movie. A lot.
Many horror movie viewers are cynical and jaded. They claim that “they’ve seen it all” and “nothing can scare them now”. That’s all well and good, but once you claim that, where is the fun in watching movies? Movies are escapist creations, much like many fiction books. The point of any given movie is to immerse yourself in the experience, and in a manner of speaking, let the filmmaker have his way with you.
As a film viewer of the age that I am at now. (Don’t you love that sentence?) I can easily say, sure, nothing put on film can scare me any more than real life. I have children, a husband, and other loved ones, and believe me, if you asked me to answer truthfully what scares me, it wouldn’t be a random zombie outbreak or a killer stalking teens.
Movies are escape. That’s the name of the game. Claiming “nothing scares me” certainly takes the life out of viewing horror, doesn’t it?
But I digress.
I haven’t laughed, cried and been scared by one film in a while. That is to say, I’ve laughed at films, I’ve cried over films and I’ve 
been scared by films, but never all three in the course of an hour and a half. Train to Busan is a zombie film ride I sort of wished wouldn’t end.
The setup was great. For those who haven’t seen it, I won’t spoil it, but I was like whoa….this is how this is going to go? I rolled along with the cliched characterization, because, zombies. In addition, the actors did so well, I didn’t care that I’d seen the same character in other movies.
Even in the scenes where I KNEW a character was going to do this or that (and there were a few, because, you know, film-watcher of a certain age and all..) but again, I was so caught up in what was going on that I did not care.
Grade A: I literally laughed, cried and gasped in fear. Highly recommended.
