    That was great, I loved the pub scene near the beginning.

    A very young Rik Mayall crops up in there.

    I didn't know that...

    Another film that is similar to a Horror-Comedy he's in would be Drop Dead Fred.

    And funnily enough, the guy in the pub that does most of talking crops up in an episode of Mayall's classic sitcom, Bottom, as the psychotic neighbour Mr Rottweiler!

    Life after Beth is a good one as well with a great cast and the added bonus of being up on Netflix at the moment. Also, any film that has Vitamin C by Can on its soundtrack is always going to be a keeper in my books.

    Coscarelli's John Dies At The End is, if anything, even better than Bubba Ho-Tep IMO. Well worth a look.

    Love nearly all the movies mentioned so far. Will check out ones i haven't seen.

    One i remember as a kid was Critters, watched all of them, think there are about 4 or 5 movies, they get worse as they go but i loved them! They basically become all about the janitor from what i remember.

    TBH I thought it was awful hard work to keep watching it.

    Witching and bitching (or la bruxa witchy los something) is a brilliant horror comedy and it it goes off on a completely mental tangent at the climax

    Has anyone mentioned the fearless vampire killers?
    Or Big trouble in little China?

    I thought that was just so bad it was bad, unfortunately :( I think it was the rushed cheapness of the CGI coupled with the constant reuse of establishing shots to pad the running time that frustrated me; had there been some practical effects set pieces it might have been different. Still, different strokes for different folks, etc.
