Following a couple of teasers, the first full trailer for Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula is now online along with some new posters.

If you haven't seen Yeon Sang-ho's acclaimed original (go watch it... now), it's a nail-bitingly tense horror drama which follows a bunch of passengers on a train to Busan struggling to survive when a zombie apocalypse breaks out in the world around them. Premiering at the Midnight Screenings section of the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, the movie set a record as the first Korean release to break the audience record of over 10 million theatergoers.

The sequel will focus on a new cast of characters, as a solider (Jung-seok) and his team unexpectedly stumble upon a group of survivors and must decide the best course of action while traversing the undead-infested wasteland.

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.

Peninsula is scheduled to open in France this August, before releasing in select US theaters later in the year. Do you guys plan on checking this out?

Wow... that is a completely different looking film than the first one. Bold move.

Uh uh. I give it points for looking completely different form it predecessor but it looks like its missing that small scale human story that made the first special.

Undead infested wasteland with soldiers is almost a tired concept. I was hoping they would do something very different with the zombie genre like the first did.

@knocturnalzen10 - in the first, yessir. Here they all look CGI.

@BlackBeltJones - without trying to sound sarcastic, watch more Korean films. I highly doubt lack of personal character story will be an issue, even in a tentpole action extravaganza.

@BlackBeltJones - Small scale human stories are also very tired and I'd argue are more common than zombie wasteland vs soldiers. Matter of fact, a lot of them suck. A movie is more than its archetype; the first one succeeded because it was well executed, and at the end of the day, this one could be too.

I want to like it but something is off. I’d rather watch the outbreak from someone else’s perspective than this Mad Max/Resident Evil crossover. I’ll give it a shot but it seems like more style than substance

@Ha1frican - something is off. The way the zombies move here. Seems overly CGI. The vehicles obviously are and a lot of the surroundings too.


Its missing the grounded vibe of the first where the zombies felt so real.
