Comments(1)A Poster for Fido
That’s it, the official Fido poster is here (found on CHUD). That March 16th 2007 release date for Canadian theatres is getting closer. Wee!
Here’s a favourable review of Fido’s Sundance showing:
“You crazy, wonderful zombie!â€
Fido is ruthlessly zombietic and timelessly entertaining. Director Andrew Currie and a great cast, including Carrie-Ann Moss who takes a significantly distant step away from her Trinity persona, pull together a great horror-comedy in the way that Shaun of the Dead did in 2004. (The rest of the article by by Alex Billington can be found at FirstShowing.net)
Am I ever getting jazzed for this. It sounds like a cute (I can’t believe I’m using that word) little film about a boy and his zombie.
Fido early in Canada!
I wish I had a pet zombie to mow my lawn.
Anyway, to the info. Here’s an update on Fido from horror-movies.ca:
Goon was SOOO wrong. He told you all that FIDO was pushed back to June 15th and man oh man was he wrong. Never believe goon I tell yuh. Its coming to theatres March 16th in Canada, but June 15th in the US. Oh wait…. ok so maybe Goon was half right, but I wouldnt trust him. He has shifty eyes. On a serious note, FIDO is gonna kick some serious ass and I am stoked for its arrival.
Carrie-Anne Moss, Billy Connolly and Henry Czerny star in Fido, a biting satire set in a small town lost in the idyllic world of the ’50s. The sun shines every day, everybody knows his neighbor, and zombies serve as gardeners, milkmen and servants. Here lives a young boy (newcomer K’Sun Ray) and his best friend – the family zombie named Fido. All is well until Fido’s domestication collar goes on the fritz.
It’s a story that could rip your heart out – literally! With saturated color that recalls the Technicolor era, the film marks the second feature from Vancouver director Andrew Currie (Mile Zero). Script is by Currie, Robert Chomiak and Dennis Heaton. Producers are Blake Corbet and Mary Anne Waterhouse of Anagram Pictures.
That’s cool. Canada gets it release before the U.S. I’m not sure why that’s happening but it’s good for me as I happen to be in Canada. To our friends in the U.S. who want to see the flick, come on up and watch it with us. We’re glad to have you.
