Everyone, please see Zombieland. My friend, and native Washingtonian, Ruben directed the film. I can't vouch for it, since I haven't seen it yet, but the reviews are good.

I can't wait to see this! Zombie's really offer the best mix of horror and slapstick humor you could ever want.

^ Looks entertaining at least

Nothing wrong with a good zombie shoot 'em up

I got my midnight ticket for Friday (I can't believe LA's only got three shows the entire weekend for this!).

sorry to double post but this trailer is the movie. the only parts where they try to scare you are in this trailer. the sheets going up in the bed and the thing coming at the camera are the only two parts that i guess i was supposed to be scared, the rest is lights going on and off and a door opening and closing.

I'm kinda excited to see the new movie "Precious" comes out Nov 6.

I heard most of the main characters in this movie weren't allowed to wear makeup. (Obvious with Mo'Nique and Mariah Carey).

Might be a little too real for some people. But I guess that's whats appealing about it for me.

mredskins · 10-01-2009, 09:08 AM

^ I bet it will be available to all soon sometimes Hollywood does this with a low budget film to get it going, AKA Blair Witch.

Yeah I just wasted half of my day at work watching The Children of The Corn SyFy remake and I don't know if I've seen worse.

I saw Zombieland and The Informant last night. Zombieland was pretty good, it was basically a "how many ways can you kill a zombie" type dealie but I enjoyed it. It was definitely a very funny movie, I thought Woody Harrelsons' kill 'em all character and that kid's nerdy "trying to stay alive by my rules" character set each other up perfectly.

Also I loved the celebrity character that made a cameo towards the end of the movie. I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it yet but I thought it was great seeing that person make an appearance because I haven't seen that person in any really good movie in quite a while.

The Informant sucked. I didn't know what to expect, but I thought it was a waste of time. I've never been more bored during what's supposed to be a comedy. I don't know what the directors were trying to shoot for there. The premise was good and I know it was based off that whole scandal back in the 90's but for me it felt like a 2 hour business meeting with a couple mildly humorous jokes thrown in.

Paranormal Activity lives up to the hype. Be careful if you watch it... stays with you for a while.

Paranormal was well done and very scary. You're right, I didn't get any sleep that night.

Glad you liked it! Agreed- it's a slow burner that's more creepy afterwards.
