George (Carlos Larkin) is dead - which really isn't that bad, because he has come back as a zombie - which is still not as bad as it sounds, since he's not a mindless slowly rotting brute, but he's still a thinking and feeling human being, and rots away only very slowly - hardly at all as long as he keeps out of the sun. There's only one problem with zombie George: He has the urge to eat people. Sure, he doesn't eat those close to him, he still has some (actually a lot of) decency left in him, but should a girl scout show up at his doorstep ...

George's best friend Ben (Peter Stickles) and his sister Francine (Shannon Hodson) have thus decided it's time for an intervention to address the human-eating problem, and have hired clumsy interventionist Barbara (Lynn Lowry). Along for the ride are also George's ex Sarah (Michelle Tomlinson), her asshole boyfriend Steve (Eric Dean), and Roger (Vincent Cusimano), who thinks he's going to a party and is thus constantly drunk and stoned.

George thinks he is not in need of an intervention, and blocks all of his friends' attempts to help him, but things get out of hands when he accidently kills Steve ... and when Steve returns as a zombie, he catches George eating him. Eventually, Ben decides it's best to shoot Steve dead for good, with a bullet in the head, like you would treat a zombie of old, but that's no good because the zombies with brain injuries are the real dangerous ones, as they can't think and feel no more and now totally relie on feeding instincts ...

Things really get out of hand when Barbara is killed by a blow to her head, as well as two strippers and two mormons, who have just shown up at George's doorstep, and they all also return as mindless zombies - and then there's also this travelling salesman (Adam Fox) whom George kills by accident, and who now holds a grudge.

And when Ben and Sarah decides it's high time to leave, they have to realize they are locked in ...

Zombies in sitcom situations?

Now there's a concept that's doomed to fail ... and yet, George's Intervention is a simply hilarious film - basically because it doesn't limit itself by sticking to genre conventions too closely (despite the countless references to George A.Romero) and instead puts an effort into telling an original story full of fun situations, eccentric characters ... and lots of blood and guts. And a very competent cast and a director obviously versed in comic timing make this a very satisfying experience.

Highly recommended!
