Goofs:

Continuité: When Peter is talking to his wife on the phone asking for his mother's account number, Tracey screams from the room and Peter drops the phone in the pond even before he got the account number. But just before David went out to call Tracey's dad, it seemed that Peter had gotten the account number written on a piece of paper.

Mindless, twisted mayhem!

The best way to sum up this film is 'interesting...!' The violence, blood and gore is fantastic. If you want to see people decapitated and hacked to bits and want to laugh at the same time, this recent British horror comedy is definitely for you. The main characters are fun, likable and witty, Andy Serkis is fantastic, the dialogue is hilarious and the film is just entertaining from start to finish.

However, the storyline is quite simply all over the place. It's an incoherent mess to be exact! The film just twists and turns in different directions raising a number of questions, which it then leaves unanswered. Characters and subplots are introduced and then forgotten about. However, I'm guessing most people would not want to see this for the plot so if you just want some mindless, gory fun, go and see this.
