Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe actor Ma Dong-seok (the man with the pregnant wife) used to be Gong Yoo's personal trainer.
- GoofsThe abilities of the infected seem to change for the convenience of the plot. For example, before they claim the infected will only attack if they see you, Sang-hwa traps an infected man in the toilet and it still tries to attack him, despite not being able to see him. Also, it is clearly shown that the doors aren't automatic as the handle needs to be pulled down, but eventually they realise that the infected can't open doors, but during the initial outbreak several do so with ease.
- Alternate versionsThe Indian cinema version is a minute shorter than the original version with a few violent zombie shots being censored.

Featured review
Train to Busan was a treat.
A look into Selfishness vs Selflessness and Individual vs The Collective.
I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a foreign film this much. The cinematography is excellent, the story is original, and I will definitely be keeping an eye on Sang-ho Yeon's future projects.
