10 Scariest Zombie Transformations In Movies
1. The First Victim - Train To Busan
Our final Korean movie and one of the best zombie flicks of all time, Train to Busan takes place on a train... to the city... of Busan!
Genius!
The commute from hell all starts when one sick woman sneaks about the locomotive without being noticed. She collapses in a carriage, prompting an attendant to offer her help.
Whilst her back is turned, the now-revived woman slowly rises up behind the helpful staff member, her skin blotchy, her eyes pales, and her body horribly twisted.
You can probably fill in the rest.
This is a perfectly staged shot. The attendant is panicked, but not nearly as panicked as she would be if she turned around to see the reanimated corpse behind her.
The way the zombie slowly rises up before throwing her head back with a sickening snap is picture perfect, a fantastic appetiser for the absolute bedlam that is about to ensue.
Train to Busan is considered one of the great modern zombie movies for a number of reasons, and this first infection scene is one of them. Conducted with a theatrical level of skill, this one shot will make you want to travel exclusively by bus for the rest of your life.
