🍿 Main Feature: Train to Busan
Train to Busan is a South Korean zombie apocalypse film where a workaholic father, Seok-woo, takes his daughter, Su-an, on a high-speed train to Busan to visit her mother. During the journey, a mysterious virus spreads rapidly, turning passengers into aggressive zombies, trapping Seok-woo, Su-an, and other survivors on the train as they fight to reach the city of Busan, which is believed to be a safe zone. The film follows their desperate struggle for survival against the hordes of zombies and the selfish actions of other passengers.
