| I saw the DVD when I was out yesterday but didn't get it. Didn't see it aired on channel 4 not long ago, but it sounds promising. Anybody here catch it when it was on? Buu? Simian? | |

| Yeah. Britain gets overrun by zombies on an eviction night and the housemates are left all alone. | |

| Episode 1 finished. I must say, it delivers exactly what it promises. Some quick, hopefully not horribly spoilerific notes: - It's Runner Zombies - Zombies are indicated by greyish skin and clear ice blue irises. They also roar alot. - 28 Days Later camera style (lots of action and moving and gore, but you don't get a clear view of what exactly is happening) - No mention of the Z word yet. - There's always a door for Kelly (main chick) to shut in the face of an oncoming zombie. - "We're coming to get you Barbara!" Actual spoilers - Highlights: - Spoiler:
- Davina zombie lol.
- Handlebar Moustache guy, I seriously hope he survives. But it'll probably be like in all horror films, the twat who is also a coward always get killed in the most horrific manner...
- Some of the infamous people from previous (real) Big Brother's have a little schwingdig that gets invaded by zombies.
- Wheelchair Zombie lol
- The Main Chick seemed learn the ins and the outs of zombies pretty quickly.
- I'm not sure whether or not the Main Chick is infected or not. I think she got bitten but the camera was all over the place in that part ._.
- Main Chick kills 2 zombies in Episode 1: She stabs one in the head with some scissors, and she pulverizes the other's head with fire extinguisher.
Rating: I love it so far. |

| Episode 2 is shorter I think. Still very good. - Spoiler:
Kelly was NOT bitten, but a housemate was. To keep her from dying, Kelly and two other housemates make a run to local pharmacy to look for medical crap. Handlebar moustache is trapped in a room with the most recently evicted housemate *whom he hates because she's an idiot*, while Davina zombie pounds relentless on the door. Meanwhile, Kelly's boyfriend who slept through the entire outbreak while sleeping on a bench at deserted train station meets up with your run of the mill Power Women who wields a hunting rifle like nobodies business and is all around hardcore. They escape from a group of zombies by seeking shelter in a nearby mansion (blatant RE ripoff, seriously.)

| Yeah, I think the first episode is longer than the rest of the episodes.
And I knew it had the running zombies. | |

Any zombie film set in England with comedic/satirical elements is gonna sound like Shaun of the Dead. | |
