Derek Cho (Steven Yeun, “The Walking Dead”) is having a really bad day. After being unjustly fired from his job, he discovers that the law firm’s building is under quarantine for a mysterious and dangerous virus. Chaos erupts throughout the office as the victims of the disease begin acting out their wildest impulses. Joining forces with a former client (Samara Weaving, “Ash vs Evil Dead”) who has a grudge of her own, Derek savagely fights tooth and nail to get to the executives on the top floor and settle the score once and for all.
I picked this up after hearing about it on a Red Letter Media video, they had mentioned that it was better than The Belko Experiment, which I enjoyed. As much as I enjoyed Belko, Mayhem really is a great riff on the same concepts, though there’s obviously different starting points, they both end up with people stuck in a building killing each other, in Belko unwillinging and in Mayhem as zombies. Sorta zombies. Transitional zombies?
Regardless, I enjoyed it, have you seen it, any thoughts?
