Absolute sleeper of a horror comedy. What a low-key goodie!
October 25th: Train To Busan
The characters really stand out in this movie from Seok-woo who starts out as a detached and self-absorbed father to the cute as a button Su-an but who eventually becomes a selfless hero; to married couple Sung-Gyeong (who is extremely pregnant) and Sang-Hwa (a good-natured hulk of a man); to the all around awful businessman Yong-Suk, who is one of my favorite types of character in a survival horror movie. He is the Burke character from Aliens, a totally selfish asshat who endangers everyone to save himself and ultimately gets what is coming to him.
The movie also maintains a consistently high level of tension for long stretches at a time which is quite a feat. That ramped up tension makes sitting through Train to Busan like being on a rollercoaster emotionally as you are so caught up in just who will live or die and how any of the folks trying to survive are ever going to escape the zombie hordes.
I also loved the initial zombie transformation sequences. The way the infected person’s body convulsed and contorted was horrific.
Train To Busan is a high adrenaline thrill ride that comes off like an amalgamation of Snakes on a Plane and World War Z yet is an infinitely better movie than both of those films I mentioned. This is a truly great addition to the annals of zombie horror classics.
I give 'Train To Busan' 4 out 4 Gun Totin' Dr. Loomis'

October 26th: Triangle
A twisting and turning bit of metaphysical slasher horror that somehow succeeds in maintaining an air of engrossingly creepy ambiguity right up to the big smack in the face of the film's “Big Twist”.
I'm a big nerd so time travel stuff involving time loops, doppelgangers and the like doesn’t usually confound me but I have to admit to being pleasantly lost for a lot of this movie's running time as I had no idea where director Christopher Smith was taking things. And to Smith's credit he made sure that the trip was entertaining as he created some really cool looking set pieces (one in particular that was awesomely macabre) in the midst of all the time looping hijinks.
And Melissa George was pure perfection as she had to do a lot of heavy lifting in this film and her performance is the true highlight of Triangle.
I give 'Triangle' 3.5 out 4 Gun Totin' Dr. Loomis'
