And why not? The guy's hilarious. Spaced was great, Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz were hilarious, and I enjoyed his role in Mission: Impossible III. As for this week's DVD releases, Sweeney Todd is a movie that I really liked, but I can't see myself dying to watch again anytime soon. Perhaps I'll pick it up in a few months when it has gone on sale. I consider myself a Pegg aficionado. And why not? The guy’s hilarious.

I am a Pegg fanboy! I’m not ashamed to say it.

This guy has some good sounding titles.. I might just check this out. Anyone who directs movies named: The Witches of Breastwick 1 and 2, House on Hooter Hill, and Alabama Jones and the Lusty Crusade is a winner in my books. The Cook looks like a renter. I loves me some Slasher Comedy. Please look at the director of the Return of the Swamp Thing’s IMDB entry. This guy has some good sounding titles.. I might just check this out.

Unfortunately, I can't say I agree with Itchy-Finger on "The Goo Night". That movie was a mess and though Pegg is fun, he's not in it nearly enough and rather unfortunately, Martin Freeman just seems to walk through the movie. It has some good bits but not enough for a hearty recommendation - just one for Pegg aficionados. I like “Unbreakable” and would definitely consider picking that up.

"Sweeney Todd" is worth a pickup at the release week price, and the Blu-Ray version of "Unbreakable" is a no brainer!

The dark comedy behind the morbidness of the film I found to be incredibly distastefull, and I loved every minute of it. Plus Pegg plays a great American trashball/northern hick. I wish they had thrown a zombie into the film somewhere though. I caught The Good Night a couple months ago and really enjoyed the film.
