Look - I don't give a fuck if there's been another thread about it, so all you regular bitches can just take this "shut the fuck up" in advance, ok now?

Saw the preview today, I'd heard that it was a horror/comedy but not much more, for some reason, I had the impression that this was gonna be a shitty film. No basis on that at all, just a feeling I had.
I was pleasantly surprised to find I may have been wrong.
I'm pretty into anything zombie related, but most of all h/c's, most likely since what they CALL horror nowdays is so predictable and unscary that it may as well be comedy....at least the h/c's INTENTIONALLY make you laugh and all.

ANYWAY - I saw the trailer today. No doubt most of you posters in here have seen it already, but I only just got the ol' broadband back on today so yeah. IMO this film is gonna be pretty fucking funny, assuming we haven't already seen the best bits within the trailer.
I'll be seeing it whenever it comes out here (AUS)..who else is gonna check it out?

i know i want to see it, it looks funny. i mean, how can you go wrong with british comedy, or whatever country this is from.

all in all, looks good.

Yeah...it came across as pretty "UK"...I just loved one scene I saw where they were deciding which records to throw at the zombies...

I've not got round to seeing this film yet, but yeah, all the reviews here in the Uk gave it a good rating, so should be a good watch :)

unfortunatly i was only able to see the first half of the movie b/c the dvd audio cut out... but i will tell you that i really enjoyed the way it was written and filmed. there are alot of zombie movie parodies in this film that will be a treat for any genre fan. but besides that its still funny as hell and even though i only saw the first 45 min i still loved every second of it.

I saw it.
I FUCKING LOVE this movie...The humour's there, the zombies are there en masse, and yes, I am happy to report, this films got gore, I mean fuck! You got to see a disembowelment (they ate his guts...) followed by a complete dismemberment, arms legs and head - u see it all...
It's so funny too. Buy it in advance and watch it, you WILL NOT be dissapointed.

If you liked this movie, try and watch the sitcom 'Spaced'. Same writers and actors as SOTD. Funny as fuck. Def my fave tv programme.
