Although many people wax poetic about how tired the zombie genre is, time and time again clever filmmakers prove that they can give us the goods. After all, zombies are often accessories to these works, as they allow us to further investigate the human condition through the lens of a depraved creatures who have lost their souls.

Train to Busan was lightning in a bottle. South Korean cinema has been exploding this past decade, breaking out into the mainstream with films just like it, ready to showcase their talents to the world.
