Our take

MA 15+ rated Ziam (2025) puts a former Muay Thai fighter against a horrifying zombie army as he uses skill, speed, and grit to save his girlfriend. Strong language and action violence run through the outbreak. Suicide themes sit in the story too. ClearAge puts it around 16 for mature older teens and adults.

Uplifting themes

Helping people in need and the cost of greed still get room under the zombie chaos. Doctors and carers earn a quiet nod amid the citywide collapse. Those beats sit inside the carnage While the city collapses, Singh fights to protect Rin and Buddy, and Rin keeps showing compassion. Buddy also shows courage after real tragedy

Story (may spoil tone)
