The Cottage (2008)

Dumb, lame slapstick comedy has never been my thing. I was hoping to watch a horror movie, but The Cottage thwarted these intentions, causing me to turn it off at the 20-minute mark.

  1. This got waaaay too much positive press, some were claiming it was better than Shaun of the Dead, which is false. There are a (very) few nice gags, but I wasnt entertained for the majority of the movie

  2. I *think* I watched this...and if memory serves, I either turned it off, fell asleep, got distracted, or all of the above. Lame.

  3. And here I was thinking I would get a load of opposition! At the very least, the contradiction of my admiration for Dead and Breakfast shoved in my face. Anyway, yes, I don't get the positive reviews. In fact, each one I've read seems more like someone trying to help the kid who can't play basketball well by talking about how nice his shoes are.

  4. NO WAY I THOUGHT IT WAS HILARIOUS! The Golem dude killed in it.

  5. I liked it too. I thought it was a fun new pace and wasn't really what I was expecting. Maybe cause No Name and I are watching movies together, we tend to have similar thoughts hahaha.

    Oh and this one could never touch Shaun of the Dead!

  6. Interestingly, I was thrilled with Shaun of the Dead!
