With zombie movies and shows being all the rage nowadays, the “zombie rules” become a bit overwhelming, to say the least. Do the humans turn immediately or after a while? Are they fast or slow? Do they still function as normal human beings, just slower, or do they have superhuman strength and rational? Do they enjoy Queen or are they a huge Deliverance fan? The list goes on and on, and I’m sure there’s more you can add.
Well Maggie is a different kind of story. It’s not a survival story like most zombie films, and it’s not a rebuilding and restructuring story like others. Maggie is more about the moment, take a combination of Amy’s death from The Walking Dead and R turning human. It’s essentially an hour and half of dying, in a rather disheartening setting between shockingly emotional acting from Arnold Schwarzenegger and Abigail Breslin.

The idea of Arnold Schwarzenegger starring in a zombie film is one that seems like mere fan fiction as it's pretty much too good to be true. But the upcoming film Maggie is proof that sometimes...
...things that are too good to be true are actually true.
In the Henry Hobson-directed zombie flick, Arnold plays the father of a 16-year-old girl (Abigail Breslin) who is infected with the zombie virus, staying by her side as she transforms from human being to flesh-eating monster.
Yes, Arnold Schwarzenegger as a zombie's dad. We're not making this up, and we're so glad that we're not.
It was announced today that Maggie will be having its world premiere next month as part of the Toronto International Film Festival's 2014 lineup. The festival runs September 4th through the 14th, and Maggie will be one of many special presentations.
In the meantime check out a handful of stills from the film,...

Zombies! They’re all the rage right now, though I guess they never really went out of style. But you know who has yet to make a foray into the zombie subgenre? Do you know who has been missing? The Governator himself, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Not to worry! His upcoming film Maggie is going to change all that.
That’s right, Arnold will be taking on the undead in the form of Abigail Breslin. The actress plays a small-town teenager who contracts a virus that turns her into a flesh-eating creature, while Arnold is all set to play her farmer father who tries to help his daughter. Aw, that actually sounds really sweet.
Maggie is actually quite a small film, with Breslin and Schwarzenegger the biggest names in a cast that includes newcomer Aiden Flowers, Rachel Whitman Groves (she’s also in Spike Lee’s Oldboy), and TV actress Amy Brassette.
