Doesn't look like it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYJrWZcElWQ Surely if it were a comedy it would be pitched differently. | ||

Okay, so it's pile of excrement. Even if it's aimed at the teenage market and then upwards, teenagers are a lot more sophisticated these days. You only have to look at the first Final Destination movie to see what they expect. | ||

I think the funniest part is "Coming Soon To Theaters" - uh, no, highly doubt it. And what the hell, was that Robert Patrick I saw?!? | ||

Alas, Craig, it was Mr Patrick. | ||

Even good actors, sadly, need to pay the mortgage. If they can get one. | ||

But IS it actually a comedy? There was nothing but a picture and a blurb when I went to the original link so I searched for a trailer on YouTube and found the one I posted. Which doesn't look like a piss-take. So I'm confused.  | ||

I see no evidence in that trailer that it's a comedy at all Well, The Long Lost is a comedy... Is it, Mr Campbell? Next you'll be saying The Face That Must Die is one as well  | ||

Mayhap it's a Marxist take on the board game "Monopoly" One eye on here, the other on Ghana 2 USA 1 (thus far)... Mark S. | ||

NO! I didn't think it was a comedy, I thought I was mistaken, and that it had bypassed my comedy detectors. | ||

'The Long Lost' went from atmospheric supernatural horror to deliciously witty black comedy before finishing as devastating social drama. A unique, uncategorisable work (you were right, Zed) and Ramsey's best that I've read... |
