Hot Fuzz was actually better than Shaun Of Dead.

I think people who are fans of the horror genre likely prefer or appreciate Shaun of the Dead more. I'm not a big horror fan, but Shaun is definitely great.


I'd say the Cornetto trilogy films are all horror

Shaun of the Dead: zombie outbreak horror
Hot Fuzz: ignorant cop in creepy folk horror village (Wicker Man!)
World's End: sci-fi horror a la H.G. Wells

but yeah I think zombies and slashers probably have the widest audience appeal

Yeah those definitely have the elements, but from my standpoint I wouldn’t place Hot Fuzz in a horror genre so to speak. But yeah good points.

Should I go watch Vengeance? On the one hand, I find BJ Novak's shameless self promotion to be hilarious. On the other, I can respect it. But is he actually talented or interesting? I dunno.

Was there ever an explanation for why he was billed so high in the credits of The Office, despite playing a very minor character? I mean, I know he was also one of the writers, but that usually doesn't get you put up there with the actual stars.

But when are a producer, I guess you can do whatever you want.

Tower Heist. What a mess. Stiller is so bad. Just as bad as Walter Mitty.
