A sequel to TRAIN TO BUSAN? Impossible some would say. Yet that is exactly what acclaimed director Yeon Sang-ho is giving us with PENINSULA. The new film follows a soldier who must rescue survivors of the zombie apocalypse.
Synopsis: Four years after South Korea’s total decimation in TRAIN TO BUSAN, the zombie thriller that captivated audiences worldwide, acclaimed director Yeon Sang-ho brings us PENINSULA, the next nail-biting chapter in his post-apocalyptic world. Jung-seok, a soldier who previously escaped the diseased wasteland, relives the horror when assigned to a covert operation with two simple objectives: retrieve and survive. When his team unexpectedly stumbles upon survivors, their lives will depend on whether the best—or worst—of human nature prevails in the direst of circumstances.
Wow. While the idea of a pandemic hits a little too close to home at the moment, the wild action and zombie violence might be just what the doctor ordered. This trailer gives us plenty of hope that we may just have a sequel worth watching headed our way.
