Annabelle A I love this, it’s very funny and but still able to maintain a good balance of horror and emotional scenes. Jisoo, in particular, did a fantastic job at displaying natural emotions, eg pure grief when Alex died and shaking when she was holding up the zombie grandmother as the train was approaching. The subway scene as well was really well done, spoiler warning, the way everyone started pushing each other the second they heard it coming, and Jisoo was again great at showing her character’s terror when the safety glass broke. The comedic and romantic scenes were a good break from the horror parts, as some of them did leave me with a light on. Overall, it’s a really good show and the casting was great.

I was actually just planning to give it a try because of Jisoo but the show really hooked me on Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/26/25 Full Review Vipul K Liked it. It was different from more serious apocalypse stories like twd, eternaut and others of it genre. The crazy characters made me laugh..it was also sad at times..i dnt think its as bad as most people are saying Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Ignacio S A Bad Korean Zombie Parody I generally like the zombie genre. I enjoy the bizarre. I like Korean productions. I like gore. And depending on the approach, I can enjoy parodies too… But I don’t like this series. Modern-day setting, a young couple as protagonists, a hotel, a big city, tons of zombies, lots of blood, lots of humor, and a bunch of ingredients thrown into a blender that never really works. The humor is the worst kind of lowbrow American style—dumb, absurd, and just plain bad. It’s been a while since a comedy made me laugh so little. The acting is awful, but clearly intentionally so, so I won’t blame the cast. If anything, the responsibility falls on the director and showrunner. While Netflix seems to be making smart editorial choices when it comes to Korean content... Amazon clearly hasn’t figured it out yet—again. I can't recommend it if you like zombies, if you’re looking for comedy, or even a genre parody. It just doesn’t know what it wants to be, other than a silly waste of time. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/14/25 Full Review Mario N One of the best zombie shows I've seen since walking Dead Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/13/25 Full Review David G It wasn't something to take series reminds me of great comedy horrors like Tucker and Dale vs Evil or Army of Darkness. It was fun and enjoyed it even though there were times I wanted to slap the leads. Hope there is a season 2. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/04/25 Full Review Read all reviews
