FIDO

With Carrie-Anne Moss, Billy Connolly, Dylan Baker, Raymond E. Bailey

Written & Directed by Andrew Currie

This zombie spoof is set in the idealistic prim and proper American ‘50s. The zombie problem of the States had been curbed by the Zomcom corporation. Special fitted electric collars make the blood-thirsty zombies docile, thus reintegrating them into society as milkmen, crossing-guards etc. One particular family still doesn’t have a zombie “helper” and in a keeping-up-with-the-Joneses bid, mom picks one up for the home. Dad has a fear of zombies reaching back to his past, while Jr. gets bullied at school, ending up befriending their zombie pet, naming him Fido. But when Fido’s collar starts to malfunction, the epidemic starts to spread. Great fun.
While watching this movie I’d forgotten that comedian Billy Connolly played the title role, and didn’t even recognize him! – only reminded of it once the final credits rolled.
