Yes, this is a real movie
...THIS FILM WAS AMAZING! In a good way. The plot? After a construction crew accidentally break open a tomb of
zombies from 1666 (implictly the Great Fire of London was arranged to
quell a zombie plague), London rapidly becomes overrun by a hoarde of
the undead. Unfortunately, it seems that a pair of brothers happened to
have chosen this time to rob a bank to get the cash they need to save
their grandad's old folks' home...
Apparently Danny Dyer turned
down this film as he thought that films with Versus in the title are
predestined to suck, and thank god he did too, otherwise this wouldn't
be anywhere near as enjoyable.
It has pretty much the same sense
of humour as Shaun of the Dead, blended with a bit of Guy Richie's
earlier gangster stuff. Genuinely a good natured comedy, that manages do
several things not previously done with zombies (itself a rarity these
days) while at the same time having some impressive action, gore and
jokes in too.
Oh yeah, and Alan Ford, the actor who played Bricktop, is in it as a heroic version of the same character, and he's AWESOME!
Reccommended.
