Peninsula

A loud, action-heavy zombie romp that trades the emotional precision of Train to Busan for high-octane spectacle in a post-apocalyptic Korean wasteland.

• Yeon Sang-ho’s enthusiasm is infectious, delivering unpretentious thrills even if the plot feels cobbled from genre staples.
• Practical gore and hordes of shambling undead keep the adrenaline pumping despite uneven CGI and narrative holes.
• More Mad Max than survival horror — great if you want fast-paced chaos over subtle scares or emotional stakes.
• Not a sequel in story or tone; you can jump in without Busan but leave expectations for its tight storytelling at the door.
