After trying my hand at two recent well-acclaimed movies and hating both of them (Beowulf and No Country for Old Men), I figured I couldn't lose with a much lesser-known release and rented Fido, a zombie satire from a few years ago. I actually really enjoyed it - maybe just because I love zombie movies, but also because the script was actually pretty good. The premise and opening shots make it seem like it's going to suck, but it's actually quite watchable (as long as you don't take it too seriously).
I was starting to think that I was just in such a shitty place that nothing was going to appeal to me, so I'm glad I enjoyed this - it gives me hope that I can still escape from this life into fantasy ones when I need to, which has been quite often this weekend.
