It's a real genre bender, which a lot of great horror is, hell, great films of most any genre are.

I think the beginning was fantastic and delightfully droll, but the movie dragged a bit for me, which was too bad because I couldn't really enjoy its climactic finish (I had already checked out).

I can see why some people love it - Just wore thin on me.


And now from High Art to Lowbrow Art...

Trailer Park Boys are back on Instant. Utterly hilarious. Recommended if you haven't seen it yet.

Brilliant series! Probably my favorite tv show of all time. I've seen every episode and both movies atleast 3 times each!

I'm finding more and more that I enjoy comedy series from Canada, Australia, and the UK more than I do US sitcoms. They seem fresher, edgier, and just plain hilarious!


Some examples(not all on instacue): TPB, Pure Pwnage, The Jon Dore Show(these 3 from Canada), The IT Crowd, The Office(both from the UK), Summer Heights High, Angry Boys(both from Australia)

I highly recommend all of these series.

I watched the first season(they only made one) of the American adaption of this show. In the US they called it Scoundrels. I'll definately have to find the version you mentioned.

I mentioned this one in Recently Watched Movies-Hardcore Logo.

A very cool pic for punk fans!

Don't think anyone's posted this yet, but Dogtooth is streaming. Probably my favorite film from 2009.

'Party Down' is awesome. I've hear they're talking about making a movie of some sort to wrap up any loose ends. Of course I don't know to what extent it's been discussed but Lizzy Caplin said they've discussed it.

Yeah, I remember reading about that a little bit after it was cancelled. That would be amazing if it happens, but I think the last episode has pretty decent amount of closure.

I agree. I like Adam Scott alright on 'Parks and Recreation'. I'd sure love to see a few of the cast members from 'Party Down' on there, they seem to get a lot out of their guest stars on 'Parks and Rec'

Yeah, I really like Parks and Rec, and I think Adam Scott does a great job there. Did you see the Party Down reunion on Children's Hospital?
