Dave Wrote:Shaun of the Dead is released in the US in a few weeks time, I believe. A romantic zombie comedy, or RomZomCom, great for laughs and scares. Check it out, you'll love it.
I wanted to share an interview quote from the director about a screening they had recently in the US. The interview is in DVD Review in the UK for those that care...
DVD Review: So do you think your brand of humour will be able to cross the Atlantic?
Edgar Wright: I think they seem to respond to the fact that the English are essentially useless and it's our lack of guns that get us killed. They asked in a test screening "What did you like about the film?" And one guy said "I like this film because it it proves why we should have a Second Amendment. If these guys had more guns then not as many of their friends and family would have died. It's as simple as that."
Cracked me up, as it did every person in this English office.
Dave
