Movie Title: Fido Fido is available for streaming or downloading. |
This Canadian production is one of the best awe comedies and period films available for fans hungry for bizarre and madcap entertainment. The unusual exploitation of the Zombie genre gives set to many different styles and moods, and a safe tense and goofy comedy about the sage of the undead and the apocalypse on earth, with all the violence and gore implied, mixed with all-american family values and “pet” ownership responsability in a dystopic society that domesticated zombies for labor work, is always welcome.

Weird as it sounds, this movie is pure fun, with no major ambitions that showing a hilarious vision of a 50′s era alternate universe, where domesticated zombies play a functional role in society: They impart the milk and the mail, and even wait on in household chores. When the earth passed throught a cloud of dwelling dust and the tiresome arose from their graves to relish living human flesh, it seemed than all hope for humanity was lost. After the mayhem and chaos unleashed by the living humdrum, the scientist of the Zom Com company created a special collar that turned the vicious curious corpses into docile beasts, willing to obey some basic commands. This conception of “protection” is, as you can imagine, very fragile and it test one’s imagination over awful things to reach, creating a silly tension about this extravagant current society.
Now, small Timmy Robinson (Ksun Ray) isn’t quite convinced of this menacing urban panorama. This mild but skeptical young boy spends too mighty time alone in his bedroom, developping an anti-social behaviour that worries her ravishing mother (Carrie Ann Moss), who impartial purchased a zombie nicknamed Fido (Bill Conolly) to support with the housework, not luminous that the creature will soon forge a friendship with the boy at the point of becoming a member of the family. Things go out of control when Fido’s collar starts to malfunction and some neighbors initiate to die, but the most exciting twist is when the top specialist in zombie control of Zom Com, Mr Bottoms (Henry Czerny) , moves across the street, increasing the complications of the status and threatening to “block” the human and zombie relations.

Speaking only for myself, this movie enchanted me for its simplicity in the vision of a incandescent dystopic society living side to side with flesh-eating ghouls, and the melodramatic macabre vision over human-pet relationships, creating a bizarre paralel universe where the very view of normality is the basis for entertainment. There’s no abuse of the zombie imagery, the focus of the film rests in the freaky and abnormal 50′s atmosphere created, and the performances are suitable for this kind of film, destined to become a cult reference in the zombie sub-genre. The opening scene of the educational dismal & white video for kids in school, is an early highlight for this outrageously comical scare comedy. Higly recommended.
There are people in this world with a demented sense of humor. Those people appreciate films like “Shaun of the Dead’ and secure “Lake Placid” to be among one of the funnier films made that year. Then there are people who deem the aforementioned folks need psychiatric befriend. If you are one of group “A” then I would strongly recommend “Fido” for your viewing pleasure. I personally grinned madly through the entire film, from the campy remake of the war footage to the 50′s commercials skewering the elderly. The premise is simple, consume all of the wholesome 50′s TV shows and blend them together, engage the dog and add in some Zombies.
I rented this movie lustrous that it would either be one of the most disturbing yet hysterical movies I’ve seen, or one of the worst. I was thrilled to search for that I loved it. The acting was shimmering in that 1950′s arrangement, the color, the scenery; everything was exactly what it needed to be to re-make the 50′s with a few zombies added in. The zombies were easy to status, shambling about in a splendid shade of blue gray doing the menial tasks in life that no one wants to do, like… mowing the lawn, or picking up garbage. Enter Fido, the lovable zombie who the Robinson’s bring home. The Robinsons are a disturbing mess of a dysfunctional family, with a neurotic zombie-phobic dad who has tiny time or attention for his family, The pistol packing mother (Carrie Ann Moss) who does her best to believe the family together and collect her husband’s attention, the son “Timmy” who is bullied at school, and friendless until Fido enters their lives. Throw in a few neurotic neighbors and a heinous zombie collar and you have an engaging evening. The most uncommon thing about this film is that (apart from the zombies munching on people when off their leashes) there is nothing in this film to sustain it from being rated PG. Not a profanity, no nudity… fair wholesome Zombie Goodness.
