I like it. It's more of a comedy than a horror movie but hey it has zombies so who cares? :skull:

I love horror movies, especially Rob Zombie films.

I like some horror movies. I don't find them scary - in fact, I'd probably be a rather annoying person to watch horror movies with, because I tend to find the 'scary' bits very amusing and often end up laughing. The aspect of horror movies that most annoys me is when the characters behave in a really stupid manner, at which point I find myself yelling "pick up the damn axe you idiot! The guy chasing you's only got a knife, you could take him easily if you weren't so busy screaming like a moron!". A common theme I see occuring often in horror movies is moments in which, if the characters would just take the offensive for a moment they could easily neutralise the threat, but instead they always choose to run away even when they have an overwhelming advantage over their adversary (presumably because the people who make the film assume that characters running away from something makes it scary, even when it is plainly obvious that running is the most stupid thing you could do). But in films where the characters actually behave sensibly, then they can be a lot of fun, because the threat they have to face actually has credibility, because the characters are actually being killed by it and not their own stupidity.

'Sensibly' for the average person when being chased by something that wants to kill/eat the (eat them while still alive) is to run... I would be the one running and screaming lol

Oh yes, i dont watch those kind of movies much
anymore but i have seen close to them all. When
i was younger i collected splatter/zombie/horror
movies on a big scale, especially the hard-to-get
stuff, uncut/no subtitles/great quality and so on.
Unfortunatly, ths country had some strict rules
for movies back then, so one day the cops came,
took all my movies, burn them and sent me to court :(
Where i later was totally cleared of every charge :roll:

Favourite movies.....oh thats hard...theres several
good zombie movies...and a few excellent splatters
comes to mind..hard to pick one..

It kind of sucks that they took all of your movies for nothing :(

I love horrors/slashers/etc...but sometimes they try to take themselves a bit too serious, and then I just lose interest...and I don't really like Wes Craven for some reason =/

John Carpenter and George A. Romero are probably my favorites =)
