‘Colony’ – ‘Train to Busan’ Director’s New Zombie Movie Rated ‘R’ for Bloody Violent Content

South Korean filmmaker Yeon Sang-ho (Train to Busan, “Parasyte: The Grey,” The Ugly) is back with brand new nightmare Colony, and the film is headed to theaters this summer.

Coming to U.S. theaters from Well Go USA Entertainment, Yeon Sang-ho’s Colony has been rated ‘R’ this week for “bloody violent content and some language.”

Look for the infection horror movie in theaters August 28, 2026.

The South Korean horror movie follows Professor Se-jeong as she is thrust into a terrifying hellscape when a mutating virus is unleashed during a biotech conference, forcing authorities to seal the facility to contain the outbreak. Se-jeong and a group of survivors must fight to stay alive as the infected undergo horrific transformations and threaten to spread the virus.

Colony marks Gianna Jun’s (“My Sassy Girl”) first feature film since 2015’s Assassination. She stars alongside Koo Kyo-hwan (Peninsula, Escape from Mogadishu). 

“With Colony, [Sang-ho] takes the intensity and scale even further, delivering a bold and terrifying new vision for fans,” teases Doris Pfardrescher, President and CEO of Well Go USA.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Train to Busan, Well Go USA Entertainment will bring Yeon Sang-ho’s acclaimed zombie thriller back to theaters across the United States and Canada on August 14, 2026, presented in 4K for the first time on the big screen.
