"Peninsula" by Song Ho-Yeon -

• “Peninsula” follows “Last train to Busan”.

• The action takes place four years after the first film with different characters.

Watch out for nasty zombies!

Since

, labeled Cannes 2020 and presented in Deauville, Song Ho-yeon continues to stage his starving undead on the Korean peninsula where they have been isolated.

The action takes place four years after the first film with different characters.

A former soldier teams up there with a bunch of broken arms to recover a loot risking their lives against creatures that are both greedy and voracious.

took stock, from afar (it bites these animals!).

They go fast

If George A. Romero, director of

The Korean undead must have eaten the deposit because they rush at their prey at lightning speed.

Even Usain Bolt would have a hard time sowing these voracious, loathsome beings who seem mostly made up of sharp teeth and steel jaws.

They are afraid of the dark

Like fearful little children, Korean zombies fear the dark.

A good extinction of fires petrifies them!

If it is enough to plunge them into the dark to keep them quiet, beware of impromptu sources of light which immediately bring them out of their torpor.

These hungry beings come to life at the sight of the smallest lit bulb.

They are players

Korean undead can be a lot of fun as long as you know how to get the most out of it.

How to do ?

It is very simple!

The hero, for his part, discovers solidarity in the face of adversity.

As for the zombies, they have only one concern: to tamper with everything that passes within their reach.

Enjoy your meal !
