Looking for a good zombie flick?

The first zombie horror film came from George A Romero, Night of the Living Dead (1968), telling the tale of the very first zombie outbreak where the dead came back to life.

This original film started a slew of dead movies in the horror movie genre and is still revered as the best zombie film.

Back in 1968, the zombies in these films are the slow-moving zombies and not the fast zombies that are seen in today's zombie genre.

Zombie Genre in South Korea

The zombie films to come of South Korea are different from the zombie genre's first film directed by George A. Romero.

South Korea has taken the horror genre to a new level with the fast zombies in new cult classic films such as #Alive available on Netflix and Train to Busan.

#Alive is about a young boy and a young who are the last of a group of survivors.

Train to Busan is about another group of survivors on a train trying to outrun the zombie plague going from station to station while battling the infected aboard the train too.
