I have heard about this movie and am thinking of getting it.So have any of you seen it?.
Is it worth buying?,as i have seen some good ( and poor) reviews of this film,.I have been very dissapointed with other, recent much hyped "monster" movies, (such as Cloverfield, House Of The Dead,etc ).The Cast list of "Fido" looks quite impressive,it seems to be very much a comedy/horror, tongue in cheek ( much like Shaun of the Dead).?
Carrie-Anne Moss | Billy Connolly | Dylan Baker | K'Sun Ray
| Tim Blake Nelson | Henry Czerny | Sonja Bennett
Welcome to Willard, a small town lost in the idyllic world of the 50's, where the sun shines every day, everybody knows their neighbour, and rotting zombies carry the mail. Years ago, the earth passed through a cloud of space dust, causing the dead to rise with an insatiable hunger for human flesh. Terror spread across the land, until a collar was invented that made the zombies docile, even useful. But Timmy and his zombie Fido find that not everything is so simple, after Fido's collar goes haywire. |

| I've seen it. To be honest, I thought it was VERY average. It has some good moments, and the concept is interesting, but in totality it is lame. Definitely no Shaun Of The Dead, and I should know, as I love my zombie movies. |

I would go for this kind of protection
Fat zombies, skinny zombies
Zombies who climb on rocks
Tall zombies, short zombies
Even zombies with chicken pox
Love hot dogs
Armour Hot Dogs
The...dogs...zombies...love...to...bite. |

I watched House Of The Dead 2 "Dead Aim" , a couple of nights ago, and well at least it was a bit better, than the first one.  |

Uwe Boll's movies are absolute garbage, but no one deserves that kind of negative attention. Wow, it is so cruel.
Rather than attack a man fulfilling his dream to make movies, wouldn't it be better if everyone just stopped paying to see his movies, rather than sign a churlish petition? If you want to sign a petition, well sign one at Amnesty International for Burma, Tibet, Darfur...
It would be horrible to be subjected to this kind of hate. I don't like his movies, but the intensity of nastiness aimed at him is wholly unnecessary and cruel. Clearly, the outburst in the video is of a man being victimised by an internet lynch mob. It should come as no surprise that he is responding with such indignation. How could he just sit back and allow this kind of intense negative attention? |

We made our own zombie movie called, "Dr. Voodoo". It was in accordance to the prophecy! |

| In accordance to the prophecy if I don't stop now I'll be killed and turned into a zombie so that people can have control over me! Then they'd have to fill my mouth up with salt and sew my lips shut!!!!!! That would wreak havoc with my blood pressure medicine! |

It was all much more simple in the days of Bela Lugosi, you knew where you were with Zombies back then, they all did what they were told.

Here's another that seems to be " so bad it's good", anyone seen this one?
A band of nuclear survivors stumble into a disused shelter, seeking refuge from deadly acid rain. But any hopes of safety are soon shattered as it becomes apparent that the shelter is occupied. They may be safe from the dangers outside, but they are far from safe from the horror within. |
