A Little Bit Zombie
A catty bridezilla (Tina) drags her fiance Steve's family (Sister Sarah, and jock brother in law Craig) out to a small cabin to plan the final steps of her wedding, make table centre pieces and all that other tedious annoying shit that comes with the big day. But after being attacked by an un-killable mosquito the jokes about a groom's funeral come too close to home, as the soon to be groom begins getting literal cold feet. Even though Steve's heart has stopped he will do anything to not break Tina's hiding his growing hunger until the instinct to feed becomes uncontrollable. Steve's an all around nice dude though and still continues to try and find ways to overcome his illness and avoid eating from his friend's chattering brain bowls. Once our zombie friend's secret is revealed, the group bands together to help poor Steve find a way to continue leading a normal quality of life. While our heroes look for answers a zombie hunter sniffs out the stiff in hopes of ending his un-death.
It's gotta be hard to come up with an original zombie film these days and it's so refreshing to find one that isn't stale. I really dug this zombie flick. All the talent were charismatic and fun for the roles. The bickering relationship between Steve's fiance and sister was believable and actually kind of charming as was Craig's over confidence and loveable douche-baggery. The effects were goofy and fun with some light gore giving the production enough balls to sell the punchline.
A Little Bit Zombie falls in line of other impressive recent horror comedies AHHH! Zombies, and the kick ass Rock n' Roll Vampire picture, Suck!
