Fido

About This Movie

Fido is a fascinating blend of comedy, horror, and social satire. Set in a 1950s-style suburb where zombies are domesticated pets, it really plays with the idea of family. The practical effects are worth noting; Fido’s rotting makeup and the vintage vibe of the sets create a unique atmosphere. The performances are solid, particularly Billy Connolly as Fido, who brings a surprising depth to the character. The pacing allows for some zany moments while still exploring themes like control and social norms. It’s quirky but has a heart, making it a peculiar gem that stands out in the zombie genre.
