Korea seems to be the place for new Zombie movies at the moment.

Well that was quick looks like an American remake already I am going to give the Korean version a watch at the weekend. The remake is due out in October. Agreed that is weird that the American one was made around the same time as the source material unless the distributer has sat on the Korean version for a while?

Quick research suggests both films are based on a script by Matt Naylor. Both are simply based on the same script. Possibly he sold the US rights to Lionsgate and the worldwide rights to Netflix. Seems to be a mess, and highly unusual for this to happen. Usually a company wants to own worldwide rights to a property, but this is obviously not the case with this one. Highly unusual.

The Korean Version is now on UK netflix if you want to give it a try, myself I thought it wasn't anything special, not terrible just average.

Watching it now and it's certainly not very good. Overacting, silly raptor-zombies, never suspenseful and stupid characters.

I've got it on the list, but hmmm... not sounding great thus far.

I've got it on the list, but hmmm... not sounding great thus far. The lazy "sudden helicopter reveal" you complained about in T4 is in. I groaned.

Watchable, but average...

I didn't like it all too much. The female actress was great in this film. Another actor in this film did a great job but I don't want to give it away, it's kind of a spoiler. I wasn't too keen on this films script and screen writing. Some of the scenes felt contrived for the sake of doing something cool/funny etc. I'd say, if you haven't seen Train to Busan yet, just watch that instead.
