Quote to Note: All I know is the child is my warrant and if he is not the word of God, then God never spoke.
Review: It's hard to describe just how bleak this film is. It's not filmed in black and white, but it is grey. Everything is grey. If you've played Fallout 3 you kind of have a feel for what this movie looks like and how the characters the world is populated with act. The difference between this movie and Fallout 3 is the movie isn't funny. Not even a little bit. Cannibalism, and the complete and utter loss of humanity is what you can expect from people when the world ends. Amidst the amputees, cannibals, ghouls, and vomit there is a silver lining for the ladies. Man-ass, and a lot of it. Viggo is not afraid to turn the other "cheek". Anyway, if it wasn't obvious, this movie is not for everyone but it is stunning and unforgettable. The best way to sum it up is, when heaven turns to ash we'll be left with The Road.
Also, when the world ends, there will be an assload of ruined boats everywhere...

Quote to Note: You know what ten grand feels like in your pocket? It feels like a third cock.
Review: How disappointed was I to find out this movie wasn't a porn? On top of that revelation it's just not that funny. The two funniest parts of the movie were given away in the red band trailer, and the rest of it just screams straight-to-video. Meatdrapes aside, you can pretty much skip the rest of the film. If I were given the choice of re-watching this film, or slam the salmon... ...I'd fuck the fish.
It's a shame really. Broken Lizard have been great up to this point, but they get no love in the theater and therefore make no money for the studios. So instead of Super Troopers or Beerfest, we get shit like Date Night for our theater comedy viewing. And they are stuck with making low budgets shit heaps like this.
