This movie aggressively attacks its target audience to the exclusion of all other more than any movie I've seen in quite a while.

Do you smoke weed?  Do you play video games?  If your answer is yes, this movie is for you.

I fit half that equation; I play video games.  So I enjoyed it and got some laughs here and there.

Don't believe me about the narrowing down the audience?  Early on in the movie, there is a scene featuring Allen Covert jerking off to a doll in the bathroom of his friend's house.  Then, by a lucky coincidence, he proceeds to ejaculate all over his friend's mom.  This caused the girl in the room to quickly exit, and I imagine half the audience of any mixed group would as well.

Don't get me wrong, I liked the movie.  And if you fit either of the two groups mentioned above, I give it a thumbs up.  This may seem a bit callous, but any movie that sees fit to having Linda Cardellini shaking her ass while singing Salt & Pepa's "Push It" is alright with me.

3 out of 5.
Every dead body that is not exterminated becomes one of them. It gets up and kills. The people it kills, get up and kill.

I saw the DVD cover art of it. I kind of like it, it's more like something you'd see from the 70's-80's kind of covers. Not just some close up of the main character's faces.
Now it's time to sing the nation anthem IN AMERICA!!!

Yeah I watched this one this week as well.

I'd have to give it a 3 out of 5 as well.  Overall it was just...meh.  Some of the jokes worked, but most of them fell flat.  But, watching a monkey drive a couple of stoners around in an SUV is worth seeing.

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream.  I think it was a Telly vision.
