great fun, its obvious the guys who made this were huge Being Human and Vamp movies fans, a genre which has been crying out for a mockumentary for quite some time.
probably not a good advert for Wellington though mhuahaha looks like Carlisle.

You might feel shortchanged understandably if you go into this thinking its got a big budget and value for money in that sense (its not long). Its basically budget stuff, that said care and attention is dutifully pa*d to all the visual gags and their corresponding effects.

fav gag would be "I specialise in computer software for clients..." "HES A VIRGIN!"
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?

I saw this at the creepy Asylum in Peckham, I believe it was the premier. It was a fitting place to screen the film as it was a run down creepy old church which apparently used to be a hospital, complete with a residential cat whoo greeted everyone as they came in. We were warned it would be cold in there and indeed it was. However, there was free booze on tap and luckily no big heads blocked my view.

As for the film I thought it was stupid, funny, tongue in cheek humour. It's obviously not meant to be taken seriously by any shape or form which was fine with me. Both my friend and I enjoyed the film and it seemed everyone else at the Asylum enjoyed it too from their reactions of laughter. 7/10
