Shaun of the Dead meets, well...... sheep!

Ive just watched this

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0779982/

Its been on my virtual pile of films to watch for quite a while and must say its superb. If you like films in the style of Shaun of the Dead and lets face it who doesn't? Then you'll love this, its got a quirky New Zealand style to it and the splatter horror effects are top notch. If you can find a copy I highly recommend it, 8/10 on the Matblackometer

Cheers Matt, grabbing a copy now (It better be good or so help me I'll call you names

)

Watched.

Enjoyed.

Disagrees.

I'd say it's more of a Bad Taste meets Eight Legged Freaks meets Dog Soldiers.

The funny bits are good and the story works (especially the bits which make you go "EWWWWWWW" [see what I did there? /Angus Higgins]) but the writing and delivery is nowhere near as good as Simon Pegg.

Enjoyed it though

I saw a trailer on apple.com for this ages ago and wondered what it would be like, will need to find a copy and see.

Lots of ewww moments but very funny. I must commend Desmo on his performance in the film
