Seoul Station Seoulyeok
The animated prequel to the box office record-breaker Train to Busan, and the latest from director Yeon Sang-ho, SEOUL STATION follows a man sleeping in a train station who becomes a catalyst for the pandemonium in downtown Seoul: a zombie apocalypse. The rapidly-spreading infection propels an authentic family drama, drawing mordant parallels to real-world social horrors.
Official Selection at the Edinburgh International Film Festival. Winner of Best Animated Feature Film at the Asia Pacific Screen Awards. Nominated for Best Animated Feature at the Fantasia Film Festival.
"SEOUL STATION is a superb piece of work which blurs lines between 'Them' and 'Us' in complex ways, breathing new life into the undead in the process. It deserves a wide audience." - Jennie Kermode, Eye for Film
"The film's social advocacy and regional specificity, as well as its effective staging, make it a worthy entry into the zombie canon." - Bradley Warren, The Playlist

Huh, what is happening? What is going on? Where is everybody?
Huh, the ER it is completely deserted. Everybody has gone crazy! I wanna go home, daddy!
Not many movies can make me react so intensely with the characters. The only reason I won't be re-watching it any time soon is for the sake of my heart. Vulnerable & Unpredictable. 4/5.
relentlessly cruel to the characters and viewer without making any point or sense. there are elements that could have been salvageable, but as a whole I don't see why this was made, especially if you compare it to even mediocre Japanese horror anime, it just looks and feels off.
Wow, this is bad.
If you're on the fence about watching this, just spend your time rewatching Train to Busan because that movie is amazing. This poorly animated, embarrassingly written disappointment adds nothing to the original story.
Stick with Train to Busan. This one has none of the charm of the live action movie.
Worth a watch if you liked Train to Busan. I appreciate that Kanopy is the only service that I'm on that carries this title. And free, through my library.
Great film, slow beginning but strong finish.
Really emotional and intense. There's a pretty dramatic but interesting back story for the characters. The ending is... well you'll have to watch and find out. 5/5
Turned out to be really intense and affecting. Right amount of heartwrenching commentary as well.
