South Korean filmmaker Yeon Sang-ho (Train to Busan, “Human Vapor“) is back this summer with a new outbreak nightmare in Colony, and the official trailer teases a violent new infection nightmare.
Colony bites into theaters on 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 (Blood: The Last Vampire, “My Sassy Girl”) first feature film since 2015’s Assassination. She stars alongside Koo Kyo-hwan (Peninsula, Escape from Mogadishu).
Ji Chang-wook (“Healer”) and Shin Hyun-been (“Hospital Playlist”) also star.
The viral outbreak horror movie is rated ‘R’ for “bloody violent content and some language.”
Colony is presented by Showbox and produced by Wowpoint and Smilegate.
Based on the new trailer below, Colony might be Yeon Sang-Ho’s most visceral and bloody yet.
