Most of Maggie is so dark you can barely make out the zombies or the humans. It also moves more slowly than the ghouls.

Ultimately, neither the brain-eating genre or the heart-breaking one is enhanced by this mash-up. Like Celine Dion's cover of AC/DC's You Shook Me All Night Long, file it under the category of "interesting-but-why?"
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
Rotten
The problem, aside from not much going on, is that Schwarzenegger remains a severely limited actor, so there's not that much character to study. Potentially interesting concept; wrong star.
Tom Long, Detroit News
Rotten
Its creepy atmosphere aside, "Maggie" is a slog of the living dead.
Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News
Rotten
It's a sad story, or would be if the zombie apocalypse backdrop - and the inky splotches creeping across Maggie's body - didn't wreak such havoc with the movie's unsmiling sincerity.
