    Anyone else surprised that this movie was really fuckin good? Its got an 8.5 right now on IMDB. Really funny and had some style to it. Didn't really revolutionize anything for me but it was a really funny take off of zombie type movies. I'll admit I think it helped that I was in a pretty packed theater full of college students and its one of those movies that's an experience to watch with all the action, gore, comedy, etc. Its a roller coaster ride (I fucking hate myself for using that expression lol).

    Go see it bitches.

    I wasn't shocked it was as good as it was, I'd been looking forward to this movie for a couple months. I absolutely loved it. I went to the first midnight showing on Thursday night (or Friday morning) and it was worth it. The movie was hilarious and was definitely the best zombie movie I've seen since 28 Weeks Later a few years back (though 28 Days Later is still the best zombie movie ever).

    I've avoided watching it because I thought it was just a ripoff of Shawn of the Dead. Might check it out after all the good reviews. Woody Harrelson is awesome.

    I liked it. I thought it was really funny. Someone broke the cameo to me before I saw it so I missed out a little bit there as it was certainly one of the highlights of the movie.

    After "Dawn of the Dead" this is probably my favourite zombie movie. Its such a good mix of comedy and action. I am interested to see if they'll go with a sequel.
