Please tell me you guys watched this?
This was a five part zombie series shown on Channel 4 the other week and it blew me away.
One thing the Brit's are excelling in recently is the ability to make damn good scary films/tv shows and this was no exception.
Yes it's all been done before. There's an out-break of zombies eating people. The only survivors hold up in a secure location making the odd trip to the supermarket for munchies, but it's never been done quite like this.
It's set around the show BIG BROTHER, so basically the safest people in the country at the time of the out-break are the contestants sitting unknowingly in the BB house.
It's also extremely funny.
I urge you guys to seek and view, SEEK AND VIEW I SAY!!! It's now available on DVD.

In fact I put this right up there with the remake of Dawn of the Dead and 28 Days Later. I would even put it in the same class as Romero's classic Dawn of the Dead. Bold statement I know.
Let me know what you thought DM.

I watched them all..Not good really. In my opinion its not scary one bit.. Bad acting, same old plot over and over again ( run to house / leave house / over and over again ), just boring to be honest. 28 days & Weeks this is not...

Wow, I'm really shocked by your comments guys. Maybe I was just looking at it from a different angle. Yeah this has all been done before but I thought it had a quirky take on it. Did the producer guy not make you laugh? I thought he was hilarious. Oh well.

yeah he was funny, . Put it this way....They have the right idea, but need more money / backing ect to make it big.....And instead of being a 5 part, with the money, backing and that idea they have, it would be a massive hit world wide...Also, if they made a film alike this, but with more story line to it, that shall be a big hit also.

I actually thought it was shot really well. I thought the cinematography was excellent, the grainy/dull look worked really well. Oh well, each to their own.

More money spent on this idea, would be a massive hit, The grainy/dull was great, now add that with a more atmosphere world affect. ( like the film ) MIST
