NapRyang: Midnight Scream in NY – My Daughter is a Zombie

Director: Pil Gam-Sung

Synopsis: “My daughter is a zombie—the last remaining zombie in the world.”

Jung-hwan, a zookeeper who specializes in caring for fierce wild animals, spends his days bickering with his teenage daughter Su-a, an aspiring dancer with boundless passion.

When Su-a becomes infected with a zombie virus that has spread across the globe, Jung-hwan takes her to Eunbong-ri, a quiet seaside village where his mother, Bamsoon, lives, determined to protect her at all costs.

As society grows increasingly intent on identifying and isolating the infected, Jung-hwan begins to notice signs that Su-a may still retain part of her humanity. She seems to understand human speech, responds to the dance she once loved, and even reacts to the sting of her grandmother Bamsoon’s trusty backscratcher.

Refusing to give up on his daughter, Jung-hwan draws on his years of experience as a tiger keeper and embarks on an unconventional mission: training his zombie daughter in the hope of bringing her back to herself.
