Zombie fans rejoice! Train to Busan, Yeon Sang-ho‘s 2016 Korean masterpiece, is heading back to theaters to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the film that reanimated the zombie genre. And that’s not all — Yeon’s new film about the pernicious undead has set its North American theatrical release date.
Leading indie and specialist distributor Well Go USA Entertainment is bringing Train to Busan back to American and Canadian theaters on Aug. 14. The film will be presented in 4K for the first time in theaters. There are no details as yet how many theaters or where exactly the film will play.
Train to Busan was a global smash hit when it was released. The film, which stars an ensemble cast including Gong Yoo, Jung Yu-mi and Don Lee, tells the story of a zombie apocalypse that suddenly breaks out and threatens the lives of passengers on a train between Seoul and Busan. The film was followed by the animated prequel Seoul Station (2016) and the standalone sequel Peninsula (2020).
Well Go USA has also revealed that it has acquired the North American rights to Yeon’s newest zombie feature Colony. That film will have its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in May, with a theatrical release set for Aug. 28 this year. Well Go USA has revealed a teaser trailer to the film (see below).
Written and directed by Yeon, Colony, per a description from the producers, “follows Professor Se-jeong as she is thrust into a terrifying hellscape when a mutating virus is unleashed during a biotech conference, forcing authorities to seal the facility to contain the outbreak. Unable to escape, Se-jeong and a group of survivors must fight to stay alive as the infected undergo horrific transformations and threaten to spread the virus.”
Colony stars Gianna Jun (My Sassy Girl) and Koo Kyo-hwan (Peninsula, Escape from Mogadishu).
