Looks interesting...

and it's written by Charlie Brooker who co-wrote the excellent Nathan Barley with Chris Morris.


Although, why do we get Jaime Winstone when we would rather have her Daddy?

Make up looked pretty solid, they moved fast so that is a negative for me... but hey I have one track mind when it comes to such things.

This looks very cool.The only problem I have with it is the running zombies.

This is one Big Brother I'd watch!

Pity it's not the Celebrity Big Brother!

Sounds like a massively fun idea. I foresee difficulty in me getting my hands on a DVD copy, though. :|

Oh it will probably get a UK DVD release. I'm certainly disappointed that they opted to go for the 'MTV' zombies, though.

Erm.... any reason my initial post was placed after a later post...anyone???

Do as I do and think of animalistic runners as ghouls and shamblers as zombies. It saves me a fourtune in painkillers.

I guess its because of the thread merge.

I am always game for another zombie film, even if it features running zombies with contact lenses. Wish they would show this here, but if they did, they likely would "Americanize" the whole bit, and that would be sad.

Apparently, the DVD is out 3 November.

No doubt the Americans will remake it with Big Brother USA, but will it still be called Dead Set? Or will they want a 'better' title?

woah, cant remember what i clicked on but somewhere on the site you enter your age and your name. i did and we see a bloody diary room, a woman writes on the wall "help me danny" and looks right at me and goes "Danny!, help me!"


i know its just word recognition but thats ****ing creepy.

at first I thought the contestants would think this was really happening outside. Doesn't that sound better than some fiction TV show? The people in the big brother house all think this event is really occurring outside the house. Like they did in reality were they fool people into think someone is rich? I don't know the names of these shows I really don't watch reality TV.

Someone needs to pitch this.

Yeah, same here too. That freaked me out, even though I knew it was a bit. I got chills when I saw and heard my name.
