Shaun of the Dead Gets the Dead Island Treatment

[Chairman Miaow]

To quote Rincewind "That doesn't work."

It really just isn't right for it.

Like everyone else is saying, good but not great. Needs normally played bits as well.

I guess this finally gives me a reason to watch the movie. I don't many movies at all, but Shaun of the Dead would appear to feature every single attractive middle-aged British actor who was even slightly popular at the time. That's a good thing, right?

It was definitely cheating. That bit was really very sad as it was. I think it's more the music than playing it backwards in this particular case, although playing it backwards gives a sad feeling of inevitability. The Dead Island trailer got it even better by showing a bit going forward too, so that instead of it ending on a high note, it was sad all the way through

Manipulative, bollocks, it was effective. The Shaun one, too.
