From
a seemingly harmless mosquito bite, a groom-to-be fights his fate turning into
a zombie in the outrageous comedy “A Little Bit Zombie” starring Kristopher
Turner as Steve, Crystal Lowe, Shawn Roberts, Kristen Hager and multi-talented
actor Stephen McHattie.
“A Little Bit Zombie” had recently been awarded as Best Feature Film in several
film festivals in the U.S., Brazil and Canada. The movie’s misadventures
start when Steve (Turner), a mild mannered HR manager becomes infected with a
zombie virus at his bachelor party. Unknown to Steve, his infection came
from the farther part of the secluded forest where he’s celebrating and where
undead exterminator “Shotgun” Max (McHattie) and his bookish assistant, Penelope,
are snuffing out a zombie outbreak at the same time. Max relishes killing
zombies, as Penelope squeamishly uses the ancient Orb of Conthulezbarr, a
crystal sphere filled with blue energy, to locate the undead. During the
battle, a mosquito bites one of the zombies and becomes infected. It escapes
the bloodbath and flies out onto the open road where … splat … it is crushed on
Steve’s car windshield.
Steve is engaged to Tina (Lowe), the girl of his dreams. Tina has been talking
about her wedding day since she was 10 years old and there is determined her
special day will be perfect. They have invited Steve’s sister, Sarah, and her
husband, Craig, up to a cottage for a weekend of wedding preparations and fun,
in that order. Once the foursome arrives at the cottage, the undead
mosquito comes back to life and bites Steve. After a ridiculous amount of
effort, Steve kills the mosquito with his shoe, creating a bloody mess. That
night, Steve has a “brainy” nightmare, where he ends up sucking his sister’s
brains out of her head with a straw.
The next morning, Steve begins to experience the symptoms of being semi-undead.
He goes for a run, but can’t find his pulse. His senses are heightened. He
can’t stomach normal food. He wants brains. Steve tries to keep this from Tina,
Craig and Sarah, as he scurries about chasing woodland creatures for their
brains. But when pressed to tell the truth, Tina doesn’t believe Steve’s
claim that he has become partially undead, and is not going to let him ruin the
day she has been waiting for her entire life, because of “cold feet”. Tina,
being the bridezilla that she is, will do anything to make sure the wedding
takes place, even when her husband-to-be is a little bit zombie, even if it
means going to the butcher shop to get and feed Steve some brains.
