Maggie is the name of both the film and a teenage girl (Abigail Breslin) in the Midwest who becomes infected by an outbreak of a disease that slowly turns the infected into cannibalistic zombies. During her transformation, her loving father, Wade (Arnold Schwarzenegger), stays by her side.
In what looks like part-drama, part-zombie movie, I do like the look of this, and while Arnie’s back this summer in Terminator Genisys, he proved last year that he can also do a decent bit of action/drama in the engaging Sabotage. And did anyone get the “You enjoy your cups”, line, from that film? I still don’t understand it.
Maggie also stars Joely Richardson, Laura Cayouette and Raeden Greer, and doesn’t yet have a UK release date, or even a US one, but it’s out in Sweden on May 22nd if that’s any guide…
