I know Pete liked it, but this seems to be the standard opinion of Wolfman. I haven't seen it, but Pete was literally the first good review I heard! I'd almost decided to have a go, but, you've put me back to the default setting of "can't be bothered".

I'll catch up soon, but this isn't going to be a full-tilt marathon for me. Too damn busy.

Probably my only movie this month, that will qualify for this marathon (though it could be that I will watch Fido this month). So I thought I'd share my thoughts on it. I am usually not that big fan of zombie movies. But I loved Shaun of the Dead. When I heard similar good stuff about this movie, I thought I'd give it a chance.
I think this was the first zombie movie I have seen (except for Fido), were the big zombie attack is thing of the past. But whereas in Fido the zombies were beaten, this movie is about a small group of survivors in a zombie-laden USA. All four prinicipal cast members did a great job. Though the premise sounds glum, it is a comedy. I loved how they always brought up the Columbus' rules about surviving.
Also real fun was the surprise cameo. I will remove the name in the awards list above. I also recommend to not look at the cast list of your DVD if you want to be surprised. It's a really short cast list so it is easily accidentally read. Sadly I saw the name beforehand.

Review posted for Hostel Part II.

I can see we have different tastes... I liked that and The Wolf Man 

Very true

As announced, I watched Humanoids from the Deep on Friday. On Saturday and Sunday I attended real life (gotta be there too, occasionally) and only watched one film together with my friend: Daybreakers (previously seen at the cinema). As you know I am not big into reviews...

I am planning to catch up on my Monster Legacy sets, same to Roger, basically. I have quite some stuff in there that I still need to watch. (And they are short, giving me time to follow up on my gaming as well )

I wish I could watch Forbidden Plante right now as well, but my order hasn't been placed yet
