At the end of "Shaun of the Dead," all of the zombies were tamed, rounded up, and put to work in low wage jobs. The new movie "Fido" addresses the social impact of such a strange world. This horror-comedy starring Carrie-Anne Moss of "The Matrix" fame and Billy Connolly in his first silent role. Here is a plot summary from IMBD:
Timmy Robinson's best friend in the whole wide world is a six-foot tall rotting zombie named Fido. But when FIDO eats the next-door neighbor, Mom and Dad hit the roof, and Timmy has to go to the ends of the earth to keep Fido a part of the family. A boy-and-his-dog movie for grown ups, "FIDO" will rip your heart out.
I haven't seen it yet so I can't write a review at the moment. However, the trailer did make me laugh, in a creeped out kinda way. I plan to see it once it comes to my local theater. The release date in the U.S. is June 15.
