Lazarus decides that he will "cure" her of this sickness, but when in a half-delirium she has a nightmare and he finds her outside in the middle of the night he decides to chain her up and that's where the chemistry between Jackson and Ricci onscreen begins. What Lazarus doesn't realize is that his attempt to cure Rae will also help him find peace for his own soul regarding the betrayal he feels concerning his w
At first Timmy treats the zombie (played wonderfully by Billy Connolly) like, well, a zombie - until it begins to show characteristics much like a faithful dog. Shockingly, Timmy names his new pal "Fido" and all is well briefly until a malfunction in the restraining collar leads to a nosy neighbor's grisly (but funny) death. Timmy covers this up as best as he can, but of course we know that eventually it will be found
He cleans up Rae's face, gives her medicine and ends up putting her in icewater in the tub in order to break her fever. At one point he went into town to try and find out who did this to her and is led to the drug dealer mentioned earlier, who informs Lazarus of Rae's peculiar and intense need for sex and mentions the large number of people that she has used to satisfy that need. It becomes clear however that he is not the person who beat her

Up until now I haven't seen director Craig Brewer's hit movie Hustle & Flow , but I'm going to make it a point to see it now. If it has any of the power and style of Black Snake Moan , I'm in for a tr
I don't want to give too much more away, but if you're a fan of zombie movies, Fido really was a ton of fun. There was much laughter in the theater throughout the film, and the humor has a very sincere quality to it. It's all played straight, but the bizarreness of the situations make them hysterical. We have everything from a next door neighbor whose relationship with his young female zombie is questionable at best, to Timmy sincerely apologizing to someone who is now a zombie as he does them in with a shovel by full moon. The real gut-buster (if you'll pardon the pun) however was a scene pulled right out of the old "Lassie" TV show.
She gets home shortly and discovers that things are quickly getting out of control due to this mysterious signal that is being broadcast everywhere, with more and more people going nuts and murderously attacking each other. Her goal becomes to meet up with Ben and somehow escape the situat
This is the first movie I had the pleasure of viewing at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. It was preceded by the insane short film Goodbye Mr. Snuggles by Jonathan Hopkins, about a shootout between an insane clown and an elderly and refined British gentleman out in the countryside. It was a great warm up for the feature: Fi
The Signal was one of my favorite films from those I had the opportunity to watch and review at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. As a longtime horror movie fan (much more of older stuff than what's come out recently), it was great on many levels and fortunately you'll be getting the opportunity to see it soon as it was picked up for theatrical distribut
The pet peeves I have include people that just wouldn't stay dead. We're talking getting battered with a big fire extinguisher multiple times with enough force that would turn a skull into pudding. The only explanation might be that due to the effects of the signal, these people weren't really still moving, getting up, etc., but that those in the room just imagined it. The other thing that bothered me was how our hero seemed to be able to fight off the effects of the signal despite exposure. This was never really explained to my satisfact

After the black and white introduction we find ourselves in an elementary school classroom, complete with perky teacher wearing a technicolor yellow dresss and well behaved students. The first clue as to the tone of the movie is given when the newly arrived Safety Director of ZomCon (who has a daughter in the classroom) arrives to fill the kids in on how much safer the town will now be with him around. The first question he asks the room filled with nine or ten year olds is: "So how many of you have killed a zombie?" To which the reply is about a half dozen little hands shooting up in an affirmative answer, all the while with smiles all around the cl
