Fido

If you combined Pleasantville and zombies, this is what you'd get. It's set back in the 50's? where life was all Leave It To Beaver and such. There has been an outbreak of zombies, but they have been contained and with the help of a corporation, been domesticated as pets/slaves. Little boy gets a new friend whom he calls Fido and they become good friends. The zombie ends up killing a neighbor but he saves the boy from getting into trouble. The zombie then falls in love with the woman of the house, so there's a bit of a love interest in the story as well. It's a nice homey sweet wholesome zombie movie. It's bizarre.
