From the director of TRAIN TO BUSAN comes the terrifying zombie horror COLONY released in UK & Irish cinemas 28th August

Enter at your own risk as STUDIOCANAL invites you to a biotech conference gone horribly wrong, in Yeon Sang-ho’s tense, timely and terrifying zombie horror thriller COLONY, released in UK and Irish cinemas on 28 August 2026.

From pioneering director Sang-ho, whose Train to Busan was a cult horror sensation, COLONY is an equally thrilling mass zombie outbreak rollercoaster ride, following a group of survivors trapped inside a high-rise building after a rapidly mutating virus transforms those infected into an unpredictable and seemingly unstoppable new lifeform. Praised by Screen Daily as having “carefully choreographed action sequences unfolding at a breakneck pace, saturated by lashings of gore”, COLONY is a frenetic, graphically gruesome, visually incredible tower block terror trip that demands your big screen attention. Miss it at your peril!

The film, which received its World Premiere at the 79th Cannes Film Festival, will be showing at this year’s FrightFest London, along with retrospective screenings of the directors’ previous films Seoul Station and Train to Busan, which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year.

COLONY stars Gianna Jun (My Sassy Girl, Assassination) Koo Kyo-hwan (Peninsula, Escape), Ji Chang-wook (The Manipulated, The Worst of Evil), Shin Hyun-been (The Ugly, He’s on Duty), Kim Shin-rock (Hellbound, Burning), and Go Soo (Missing: The Other Side, The Fortress) and is produced by Wowpoint and Smilegate in association with Midnight Studio.
