When a seasoned purveyor of cinematic thrills, Quentin Tarantino, couldn't stop praising this film, we knew it was something special.
Must see movies if you loved Train to Busan
Has any filmmaker ever mixed the macabre with the artistic quite like Quentin Tarantino? Known for his multifaceted approach to filmmaking, this Oscar-winning Hollywood elite has a well-documented adoration for the horror that seeps through his silver screen masterpieces.
Peppered with blood-curdling screams and heart-pounding tension, his works celebrate the genre he loves so much. A film like Death Proof, starring Kurt Russell, is an adrenaline-filled ride that nods to horror while gripping viewers with Tarantino's signature dialogue. But it was actually surprising when he himself turned on the hat for Yeon Sang-ho's Train to Busan.
Ma Dong-seok's South Korean zombie thriller, which wowed the world with its visceral depiction of survival and sacrifice, made even Tarantino admit he was wrong to assume the zombie genre had no surprises left.
