Maybe DON’T ride this train (sorry Quad City DJ’s)…………

So, to keep it weird and random, I’m going to start off by saying I’ve always wanted to ride a train. Yes, like a choo- choo train …. I have visited New York City (family) and London (in my youth singing) and traveled via the subway trains in these locations. . . I’M talking about a REAL train, like Alfred Hitchcock’s nostalgia, “Let’s go visit Grandma and take the train, maybe take a nap and chill in our own little cabin.”

Being a narcoleptic I think it would be a good nap. Yes, I think about things like that, on a grading scale…. A nap on a train, hmmm, in a private cabin….hmmmm, with my luggage nestled safely with me…..hmmmmmm… AND snuggly/fuzzy blankets that smell good & maybe warm chocolate chip cookies, fresh out of that train’s oven…… Sounds magnifique (💋)!! But I digress…(quite a bit, I’m sorry!)

Train to Busan is not that leisurely, ‘let’s go visit grandma’ train ride. It’s a moving disaster of epic proportions and I love that. It’s the best zombie movie I’ve ever seen and I don’t like to READ my movies (generally), BUT I will make allowances for this bomb-diggity story line from Korea. It’s intense… If you fall asleep during this movie, you might be a narcoleptic like me. I stay awake because it’s terrifying and you should too.

These zombies are not slow. They’re coming for you, like YOU are those warm delicious chocolate chip cookies. It’s literally Darwin’s ‘Survival of the Fittest’ come to life. AND I’m all about it… You can watch this movie on Netflix, btw.

P.S. : The sequel Peninsula is good, but in a different way, more like World War Z kind of good. . . That’s also on Netflix.
