“I found it.”
“You found a pie?”
“It was wrapped in foil!”
“Oh well that’s a relief …”

Oh boy. This movie was not what I expected but exactly what I wanted tonight – an easy watch that would ultimately suck me into the screen completely. This movie is like Dead Mary to get all recent on your asses, or just about any other Cabin Fever / Evil Dead type movie, except the characters feel like they walked out of Mitchell and Webb’s “Peep Show” – as a matter of fact, from what I hear, something like this would’ve been a far better choice of first movie project than Magicians was.
The comedy angle kind of dissipates towards the end, but it gives way to a quite shockingly scary nightmare I, again, wasn’t quite expecting. Definitely a worthy successor to Shaun of the Dead.
