Gloomy poet Calvin Frankenstein discovers his grandfather's notebooks and reanimates the dead to protect a village from an ancient vampire nobleman. Unlike the mindless shamblers in a typical zombie movie, the friendly undead are articulate, chipper and eager to help, but their incredible literal-mindedness and their gothy creator's penchant for posing and romantic nonsense create all sorts of opportunities for farce before the good guys and the bad guys finally face off in the finale. An amusing trifle that goes down easy.
