Editor’s note: A brief editor’s note on #Alive (2020): Firmly a Action, Horror, Science Fiction piece, but with a personal touch. Under Cho Il’s direction, the film keeps a steady rhythm and a clear sense of place. Performances (especially Yoo Ah-in, Park Shin-hye, Lee Hyun-wook) give the story human stakes. Clocking in at 1h 38m, the pacing is controlled, with room to breathe. Solid if imperfect—its strengths outweigh a few rough edges. Its tagline — “You must survive.” — actually reflects the film’s intent. Put it on your list—especially if you’re after mood and texture.
