Fantastic Zom Com!
by HorrorGuy (Riverside, CA United States)
This is a wonderful comedy and zombie film all rolled into one. A beautiful looking film dated in an alternate 50s setting with dressed up technicolor that looks amazing. Great story and acting take place throughout this treat of a film. Fido has its scares and gore too but it's a comedy first and foremost. I simply love this movie. A Blu-Ray release would be awesome.
5/5

A Boy And His Zombie...
by Bindy Sue Frønkünschtein (under the rubble)
The zombie wars have ended. The world has been saved through zombie-containment, and now everyone can own one! FIDO detonates the 1950s ideal society by adding enslaved flesheaters to Pleasantville. The Robinsons (Carrie Anne Moss, Dylan Baker, and K'Sun Ray) are the perfect family unit, w/ the status symbol of a zombie-servant being the one thing they lack. Enter FIDO (Billy Connolly) to make their lives complete. However, accidents do happen, causing slight disturbances in our suburban dreamland. The beauty of FIDO is its use of black humor / parody / satire in order to skewer isolated, separated, sterile suburbia and its inhabitants. As black comedies go, this is a fun, cadaverous classic...
1/5
THIS MOVIE BORED ME TO SLEEP.....
by Road Warrior Ray (Waste Lands,USA)
Read all the "one star" reviews on this movie....they pretty much sum up all I could say about this film.I should have just rented it. I didn't even finish watching it; I fell asleep half way thru it.Don't EVEN waste your time.
5/5
The Atomic Age meets Night of the Living Dead, with loads of laughs
by JT (Odessa)
As a zombie fan I absolutely love this film. It's refreshing to see a comedic take on the zombie genre and really breaks the glaring monotony of running-zombie cash-in flicks abound at the box office.
A fan of tradition slow-walking zombies, and of Day of the Dead to which this film pays incredible homage too, Fido is the funniest film since Shaun of the Dead in that it doesn't try to be every other zombie movie. There aren't supersonic-hopped-up-on-caffeine-and-steroids fueled fast zombies here, so if your looking for that kind of action, check out something else. Otherwise if you're looking a campy giggle, pop this into your DVD player, you won't be disappointed.
As a parting note, I really dig the Retro feel of the film. They really went the mile in bringing to life the 1950's Americana complete with vibrant colors and Apple pie in the Sky attitude. Plus Carrie-Ann Moss (Trinity from the Matrix films) is absolutely hilarious when she dances with Fido.
Fido Summary
Timmy Robinsons Best Friend In The Whole World Is A Six-foot Tall Rotting Zombie Named Fido. But When Fido Eats The Next Door Neighbor Mom & Dad Hit The Roof & Timmy Has To Go To The Ends Of The Earth To Keep Fido A Part Of The Family. Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 09/09/2008 Starring: Dylan Baker Billy Connolly Run Time: 92 Minutes Rating: R
It doesn't take long for the hilarity of
Fido
's central idea to kick in: the world is reeling from the Zombie War, and the undead are being contained in two different ways. Some of them are roaming loose in fenced-off wilderness zones. The rest are, thanks to the good people at the ZomCom corporation, docile and domesticated--indeed, available as house servants for the upwardly-mobile. Such is the case with the Robinson family, a suburban clan who seem to have stepped straight out of an old episode of
Lassie
. Little Timmy is happy about the new manservant, whom he promptly dubs "Fido," and Fido himself is fine as long as the mechanical collar around his neck doesn't malfunction (in which case he will revert to being a cannibalistic brain-eating zombie). Fido is played, in a stroke of inspiration, by the Scots comedian Billy Connolly, although you wouldn't be able to recognize him without already knowing he's in the movie. Dylan Baker and especially Carrie-Anne Moss are just right as Timmy's parents, who have accidentally wandered out of a John Cheever novel and into a George Romero world. Director Andrew Currie skillfully gets the 1950s satire and the zombie action right, although there's no way to disguise that this premise is too thin to spread out over feature length. For a while, though,
Fido
hits a stride--a staggering, vacant-eyed stride.
--Robert Horton
