A teenage girl in the Midwest becomes infected by an outbreak of a disease that slowly turns the infected into cannibalistic zombies. During her transformation, her loving father stays by her side.
Good story, nice shots of dark skies, maybe his best acting ever!
Arnold Schwarzenegger Acting is really good in this movie so it should have more credit normally his movies are more like bad humor and heavy killing now he really did something here so if you ask me this movie is worth to watch if you like the doomsday scenario people slowly turn into zombie's and they do not now what it is the movie is not like every other zombie story let me say there are more lines to speak for the actor's makeup is good the setup is perfect.... now i need to make those 10 lines full and i think thats a hard job to do so now i'm filling it up just a bit with an honest explain for it SO watch MAGGIE and give it a nice good point

Plot:
Maggie Vogel (Abigail Breslin) is calling her dad. She's trapped in the city as a curfew is in effect. She urges him not to come looking for her, and she tells him she loves him. Most of the global population is plagued by the Necroambulist virus, which turns people into zombies. Farmers burn their fields and crops to prevent further contamination. Maggie's father Wade (Arnold Schwarzenegger) goes to search for his daughter. Maggie is taken by armed officials and placed in quarantine at the hospital with other infected people. She has a bite wound on her arm, and the infection is going to gradually spread throughout her body. Wade is allowed to take Maggie home to settle her affairs until the virus progresses to the point where she must be quarantined. On the trip back, they stop at a store for Maggie to get sunglasses. Wade encounters a zombie and breaks its neck.
Wade brings Maggie home to his wife/Maggie's stepmother Caroline (Joely Richardson) and her siblings Bobby and Molly. The children are sent to stay with their aunt until Maggie's issue is dealt with. She talks to Bobby, who more or less knows what's going to happen to her. Wade burns his field. Maggie stays in her room, trying to contact her friends and attempting to ignore her situation. One afternoon, she cuts her finger, which oozes black fluid. Fearing the worst, Maggie cuts off the finger and throws it in the garbage disposal. She retreats outside where she and Wade find a man named Nathan and his daughter Julia, both completely transformed by the infection. Wade kills Nathan with a hatchet, and Maggie runs away to Caroline before she sees what Wade does to Julia. Wade feels extreme remorse for what he had to do, though nobody blames him, but they do remind him of what he'll have to do with Maggie when the time comes. Wade visits the wife/mother of the zombies, Bonnie, who regrets not leaving her husband and daughter locked up, but also did not trust having them quarantined, as the doctors treated Julia like a test subject and not a person.
Wade sees a doctor who gives him three options on what to do with Maggie. One, he can take her to quarantine immediately, which he refuses to do. Two, he can give her the "cocktail" injection given in quarantine, permitting her to die at home, although the doctor noted it would be extremely painful for her. The third option is to "make it quick". Wade decides to make the most of his last days with Maggie. They bond together, making fun of Caroline's cooking and talking about Maggie's biological mother.
Maggie's friend, Allie, visits and invites her to hang out with friends. They gather around a bonfire, along with a boy named Trent (Bryce Romero), who is also infected. He says he would blow his brains out if he needed to.
