Verdict on Ziam
Recap
The movie follows a zombie outbreak sweeping through a hospital. A Muay Thai fighter searches for love and takes on a string of zombies to get to her. However, other survivors have plans for people in the hospital.
Best Parts
The contained environment of a hospital for the outbreak creates the chaos to survive the attacks. It has great action, brutal zombie attacks and a moral dilemma involved with an outbreak. The performances are good too and the story is kept simple. It is one man trying to save his loved one and deal with saving a child. This all works perfect for the story.
Worst Parts
It is a contained story, but it leaves things slightly confusing as to how far the world has fallen apart. The introduction can feel a little out of place at times.
Final Thoughts –Ziam is a brutal, terrifying action horror movie.
