Awesome! I went to this last year in Leicester Square, when they showed the Zombie Diaries. Pretty gash film to be honest but some of the peeps attending made great efforts

Was hoping I wouldn't get recognised as a zombie...wanted to show off mrs ken's awesome get up though....

The thing is, I was hungover, yeah. Very hungover but aside from anything else we hadn't appreciated how much effort everyone else would make. If we go on Sunday, expect to see much better pictures. Or pictures of a similar standard...

I think that was a dream you had. Seriously don't recall that scene...this film was all shot on handheld cameras, is it the one you mean?

oh god. that post was a bit of a blunder cos i remember what happened now.

it was that film, and didn't one of them go really power mad and chained some zombies up?

and i remember saying to my boyfriend at the time 'oh is he locking them up to have sex with them?'

and he turned to me and said 'you are a sicko, no he's not'

and i didn't ask any more questions.:(

Yeah, I think I recall that happening. Pretty scared of you now, I have to 'fess up.

haha! but was only joking! course i didn't think that! god! what do you take me for? hahaha. hhhaaa. ha. what? you silly! ha.







it's not going to work on you either is it?:(
 
Listen, if you and I are going to make it out of this alive then we're going to have to learn to put our differences and any dread or suspicion that you're going to rape me to one side in my case, and LEARN TO WORK TOGETHER. There's a whole heap of those.....things out there....on these forums........now, let's lock 'n' load.

We thought it had preprogrammed names in it, obvious stuff. But it even wrote i need cock (help me...i need cock), which of course is hilarious!

she does look mighty fine
 
Just watched a preview disc of this one - blimey, it's (bloody) brilliant. Very, very gory - I'm astonished this is going out on telly. A lot of people who tune in expecting a bit of fluffy satire are going to be surprised - this is a proper horror film (well, TV show. You know what I mean).

Nice cinematic direction, some neat zombie tricks (including a Wheelchair Zombie, which I'm not sure we've had before) - he even slips in a reference to The Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue. Charlie Brooker done good.
 
I've seen a couple of episodes of this and it's actually pretty good zombie fare - well violent and gory, esp for a TV show and pretty scarey in places.

That bit's ace.
The cunty TV producer who escapes from him is so well drawn - I know who he's based on and it's well accurate.

A lot of it's lifted from other Brooker material - the early stuff featuring Jamie Winstone's junior runner is pretty much straight out of Screenwipe's "So You Want A Career In Television."
 
No major spoilers - nowt that you wouldn't get in a normal review :)
