Dead & Breakfast
The Ain't It Cool News claims that Dead & Breakfast is ..."the US answer to Shaun of the Dead," but I don't see it. Maybe that's why I didn't think the movie was as good as it could have been...you don't just throw statements like that around. However, whenever you manage to get Diedrich Bader (The Drew Carey Show) to play a grumpy Frenchman and David Carradine to play a crazy spiritual dude (sound familiar?), you usually should watch it. So I did. And I laughed when the zombies danced and when the arrogant asshole character slipped on the blood on the kitchen floor for two minutes straight, and when the lead singer from the local band serenaded me between scene transitions, but overall, it just wasn't Shaun of the Dead caliber.
It's not a movie for everyone, so I say, very cautiously, that you should give this flick a shot.
