    Thos begins as a solid B zombie movie, and ends as a solid overall thriller. It has a good twist and it's an original idea but the execution is undeniably low budget.

The twist is that if the cloned person survives a terminal diagnoses, the clone may opt to compete for their life permanently in a "Hunger Games" x "Battle Royale" televised death match in which only one version of the person may survive.
    A relatively straightforward and derivative story refreshed with…
