1. “#Alive”

The movie “#Alive: follows the main character, Oh Joon-Woo, who has to find a way to survive an outbreak. Just like us, he is quarantined at home and is taken by surprise once the apocalypse starts. He meets a friend during his time of survival and together, they fight for a way to make it out alive. Overall, this movie takes a great hit at trying something new. The movie is set in a time period like ours and executes things perfectly.

Investigator Gerry Lane and his family are experiencing what at first seems like a normal day until they find out that the world is transforming into hell as the day progresses. Gerry Lane uses his previous connections to keep his family safe and works to find a cure for the zombie virus. As you watch this movie you are going to be entertained — for me, not one part of this movie is boring.
