My son and some of his friends saw this last night, and after an exchange of text messages with me, he said it was 'awful', and a 'dud' - a boy of few words.

Saw this at Lowry last night....actually quite enjoyed it & no I'm not a horny teenage boy!! Haha!!

Megan Fox is most definately the main highlight of the film though! Good, uncomplex, comedy horror......!!

There was nothing scary about it and practically no funny bits so you can't really call it a comedy/horror. It was badly scripted and the acting wasn't much better. That's 102 minutes of my life I'll never get back

2/10 (1 of the points is because I didn't have to p*y for it)

I thought this film was quite good actually. A good horror/comedy!

Made me laugh out loud a few times too and i'm not a teenage boy!

I actually quite liked this film. It had quite a few laughs which included the majority of the audience, it wasn't just me... My girlfriend and other friends jumped at some points. I think there was a good balance of laughs and jumps for a comedy horror. I'd say 7/10, good way to spend an evening. Would I be dissapointed if I had pa*d? No. Like @LuVs$ I think it was a good horror/comedy and anyone wanting a laugh and a pretty good film should go watch it at some point.

It wasn't a legendary film but there were some bits that left me and my friends laughing and talking for ages after on the way home.

So yeah, overall... about 7/10.

This was quite bad - I would have been upset if I had pa*d good money to endure it. I did laugh a couple (and definitely no more than two) of times but they were more often groans. The dialogue was so cringe worthy in places. Could this really be from the same person who brought us Juno? I don't know, maybe this will become a cult classic but I think that will take a few years, possibly a generation.

3/10 and 1 is for the cinema (love Vue Greenwich!) and the other is for seeing Adam Brody not playing a Seth Cohen-type character. I'd only give it a 1 for the actual story / acting.

Well, what can i say? This was on a par with lesbian Vampire Killers in terms of quality of script and acting, but no doubt this cost about 50 times more to make!
Megan Fox seemed to not really be there most of the time or perhaps she was wishing she wasn't!!
2/10 from me but only coz the bloke that played the dad in juno was in it as the teacher and probably had the only funny lines in the whole film!!
