Ziam

Ziam follows Singh, a former Muay Thai fighter who struggles to survive in a city overrun by a ruthless army of the undead. When Rin, his girlfriend, comes under threat, he taps decades of training and street smart reflexes to cut a path through ruined streets, barricaded shops, and feeding throngs. The fights are fast and close up, often spilling into stairwells, alleys, and dim rooms where every punch and knee counts. As the danger closes in, Singh must choose between protecting Rin and conserving energy for the next wave of attacks. The film builds tension on discipline and grit, showing how a single focused fighter can bend chaos toward a chance at rescue.

Directed by Kulp Kaljareuk, Ziam is based on an original screenplay by Nut Nualpang, Vathanyu Ingkawiwat, and Weerasu Worrapot. Prin Suparat stars as Singh and Nuttanicha Dungwattanawanich plays Rin, with Wanvayla Boonnithipaisit as Buddy. The 2025 genre feature showcases Thai stunt teams and practical effects, reflecting Kaljareuk's appetite for kinetic, crowd driven action.

Box office data for Ziam have not been publicly disclosed, and there is no widely reported worldwide gross or distribution figure available as of now.

Critics note the film moves with brisk momentum and relies on practical stunt work rather than heavy CGI. The core themes revolve around loyalty under pressure, the costs of protecting a loved one, and how a fighter's discipline translates into survival in a city stripped of safety. The film’s visuals lean toward tight corridors and improvised barricades, keeping the focus on Singh's body as a tool and Rin as motivation.

While it is early to gauge its broader influence, Ziam participates in a growing Southeast Asian horror trend that blends martial arts with zombie threats. The film's emphasis on close combat and practical effects may resonate with fans of kinetic action and emotional stakes. If it travels to international festivals or streaming platforms, it could contribute to wider recognition of Thai genre cinema and inspire future collaborations among regional filmmakers.
