Anyone else seen this? I don't know if it's out in the US yet but its been out here in the UK for at least a month now.

It's a brilliant comedy with a really good homage to the zombie genre.

Theres a really brilliant bit in the first part of the movie where they're channel surfing and the director has spliced together footage from various real news broadcasts to give a coherent report. It was cool that they used real news reports with the actual BBC (and other) newscasters.

I loved that film, I think I might go again, I was a wee bit stoned the first time.

Did anyone ever watch "Spaced" btw?

I didn't actually expect it to be all that good, but it's now one of my favourite movies of all time! I HAVE to go and see it again.

Spaced and Shaun are great. I can't believe that the latter only got a '15' certificate though.
