Review

"[The] set-up sounds like an amusing premise for a mild little low-budget spoof, but FIDO is much more than that: it's a full-blown social satire with zombies at its center. Equal part LASSIE, old TV sit-coms, and 1950s movie melodramas, the film pokes fun at contemporay society in the tradition of the old TWILIGHT ZONE series – by hiding its commentary in another time, another place. It's not very scary; it's not even always hysterically funny. But its satire is always sharp as steel, cutting through the facade of happy, everyday "normality" with almost as sting as David Lynch's BLUE VELVET." - Steve Biodrowski, Cinefantastique
