Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: In the jail cell scene where Wray (Freddy Rodriguez) asks J.T. (Jeff Fahey) if he's alright, he holds his gun upside down while he fakes handing it to the guard, he then shoots the guard. He is holding the gun by the frame. The gun is a 1911 style pistol. A 1911 style pistol can only be fired by squeezing the grip safety on the back of the pistols grip. The gun would never have fired in this case.

For me this is the best Comedy/Horror since Peter Jackson's Braindead, just pushing Shaun of the Dead into third place. It's unashamedly silly and over the top from start to finish, with a good cast, funny lines, gore and action.
If you're going to have a ludicrous premise, why not go the whole way? Movies like 'Snakes on a plane' and '28 Weeks Later' would have been much better had their directors/writers understood this.
I found this hilarious and excellent entertainment. Particularly recommended to fans of splatter-comedy-horror. And if you liked this, make sure you see Braindead.
9/10
