A father spends the last weeks with his daughter, after she is infected with a fatal disease that turns its victims into zombies.
An unusual drama with Arnold Schwarzenegger. It asks interesting questions about the emotional connection with a victim which then gets interrupted by an atypical transformation. This film shows the opposite of what The Mist suggested (I won't say more due to spoilers ...), which is mainly that one wouldn't feel differently and they'd still see that person as themselves, and to the viewer, this feels like the most natural reaction. Otherwise, the movie is not very special, the horror aspect is hidden somewhere in the background, and the pace is a bit slow. Arnold plays his role modestly and without much to comment on.
