TrailerIn an Earthly world resembling the 1950s, a cloud of space radiation has shrouded the planet, resulting in the dead becoming zombies that desire live human flesh. A company called Zomcon has been able to control the zombie population. Zombies can be temporarily neutralized by being shot, but can only be permanently neutralized by their brain being destroyed. Their ultimate disposal is through cremation, or burial, the latter which requires decapitation with the head being buried separately from the body. Conversely, Zomcon has created the domestication collar, when activated and placed on a zombie makes the zombie controllable and thus an eternally productive creature within society. Because all dead initially become zombies, the elderly are viewed negatively and suspectly. And all people, adult or child, learn to shoot to kill to protect society. Zomcon is the go to organization for all things zombie. In the town of Willard, the Robinsons - father Bill, mother Helen, and adolescent son Timmy - are one family who don't own a zombie as a domestic since Bill is afraid of zombies, as, when he was a child, he had to shoot his own zombie father, who tried to eat him. Bill has thus become fascinated with funerals to see zombies put away permanently. But Helen feels pressured to get a zombie when Zomcon's new head of security in Willard, the officious Jonathan Bottoms, moves into the neighborhood with his family. Never having had to deal with a zombie directly, Timmy is initially wary of their zombie. But as a lonely child who has no friends and is often bullied, Timmy eventually befriends their zombie, who he names Fido, as he treats the zombie much like a faithful pet dog. Timmy protects Fido at all cost, even after Fido, due to no fault of its own, is implicated in some deaths, which creates a mini-wave of loose zombies unknown to Zomcon. But Fido may play a larger role within the family as a companion for Helen, who is largely neglected by Bill, since he sees human affection as ultimately resulting in such difficult issues as what happened between him and his own father. With Timmy and Helen treating Fido with kindness, Fido, in turn, may prove that not all zombies, even when without their domestication collar, are out to kill anyone and everyone in their path.Actors: David Kaye, Jan Skorzewski, Kevin Tyell, Andy Parkin, Lynn Pendleton, Gary Slater, Taylor Petri, Glenn Richards, Raphael Kepinski, Carl-James Kalbfleisch, Tiffany Lyndall-Knight, ...»Director: Andrew CurrieCountry: CanadaDuration: 93 minQuality: SDRelease: 2006IMDb: 6.7Rating(0) Voted0 CommentsSort By- Newest

Critic Reviews of "Fido"
Chicago ReaderOctober 23, 2007This indie exercise is so stultifying you might want to check your own pulse.
Seattle TimesJuly 06, 2007It's a one-gag movie that starts off clever and cute, but wears thin after half an hour, and ultimately is like an excruciating Enzyte commercial for an hour and a half.
Boston GlobeJuly 06, 2007The movie's breezy, blood-flecked entertainment, with no aim other than to give you a giggle and a shriek.
Ebert & RoeperJune 18, 2007Fido is a one-joke movie with some good performances and a few good gross-out moments. But it's not dark enough or sick enough to be a cult favorite.
New York TimesJune 15, 2007In the ticklishly amusing satire Fido, the undead stagger along like stunned toddlers.
Newark Star-LedgerJune 15, 2007Fido does offer a good number of laughs, along with a healthy serving of gore to satisfy horror fans.
The Tyee (British Columbia)August 23, 2017Fido tries very hard to keep the tone light, but it doesn't succeed in meshing hilarity and horror: the more disturbing ideas it's messing about with poke through.
Seanax.comOctober 06, 2016Subtle? No, but it's clever and funny in a thoroughly reimagined alternate universe, where the paternal smiles of authority figures hide an unchecked police state keeping the gated communities white, middle class, and compliant.
TheHorrorShowAugust 28, 2015Pretty funny, surprisingly smart, pleasant to look at, and often quite sick.
Suite101.comSeptember 24, 2010Andrew Currie's script incisively observes how taboo preferences have become policies in the reality "Fido" creates. Macabre and satirical with the brash brio of all great zombie movies, "Fido" understands that the true ghouls' hearts are still beating.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)August 26, 2009Surprisingly gentle in most of its humor and its gore quotient, making you wonder who exactly it was aimed at.
Washington TimesJuly 11, 2008Fido finds a new wrinkle in the nearly exhausted zombie genre.
