A comic drama about a doting father who embarks on top-secret training to protect his daughter who has become the last remaining zombie in the world.

"My Daughter is a Zombie" is a perfectly passable new entry into the zombie sub-genre and a decent comedy to boot, thus making its immense success as the most successful South Korean film of 2025 believable. Its longevity, however, is debatable.

This moving zombie comedy successfully transforms a potentially horrifying premise into a touching family story about acceptance and love.

Never threatening to be scary, and only serious when tugging desperately at our heartstrings, My Daughter Is a Zombie coasts by on broad silliness and sentimentality.

My Daughter is a Zombie is more of a comedy/drama about family loyalties during a zombie pandemic than a gruesome horror story. Despite uneven pacing, the performances are dynamic, and there are keen observations about authoritarianism during a crisis.

A dark comedy that's equally funny, exhilarating and heartfelt.

Hilarious and heartwarming - at moments the entire audience was laughing hysterically, at times people were teary-eyed. This was a great movie will watch again next weekend (taking family this time).

I really enjoyed this movie. It was a different take on a Korean zombie flick without all the killing and depressing atmosphere it was about staying together as a family and supporting those in need in the immediate family. its my Pick for my favorite movie in 2025.
