"Shaun of the Dead" is required viewing for the Lounge.
Mrs. Beast Man and I rented it last night- great flick. Funny, but not over the top, and plenty of Easter Eggs for you fans of undead horror (as well as movie buffs in general).
Time to go, the matinee screening of "Napoleon Dynamite" is on!

1. Agreed.
Not normally into the whole I'm-dead-but-still-alive movies, but I actually enjoyed this one.

2. I loved Shaun of the Dead!
Rented it and watched it twice. I love the way, when they're planning what to do, it shows how he imagines the plan is going to work. Great movie.

3. We take Pete's car,
go around mum's, go in, deal with Phillip - "Sorry Phillip!" - grab mum, go to Liz's, pick her up, bring her back here, have a cup of tea and wait for this whole thing to blow over.

4. Well, I did my required viewing a few weeks ago, BtBM.

I wondered why the ONE copy of this terrific film was always out at the video store down the street. And when it was finally in, and I was able to rent it...I knew why it was always out. I absoultely loved it. Funny, yes there is stuff for the horror fans...a smart movie about zombies. Who knew such a thing could happen?

Yes...all of the Lounge needs to see this.

7. I loved it!
It thought it was even funnier because I watched "Dawn of the Dead" first, then "Shaun of the Dead" right after. It was a riot!

That reminds me, I need to go get Army of Darkness. I own a copy but it's been watched so many times the picture sucks.
