Maggie is not your standard zombie film. Rather than focusing on the shock value and gore that have helped to make The Walking Dead so popular, it inverts many of the stock horror tropes in favor of something surprising. It is a small film both in its release and scope (discovered on the “Hollywood Blacklist” of film scripts), but features a pair of big stars in Arnold Schwarzenegger and Abigail Breslin. Together, they form the emotional core of a film that is just as much about loss and acceptance, as it is about the living dead.
