Uk Films In Us?

[Long-Distance-Runner]

I dont know if all, if any UK block busters get viewed in US cinema , but i juz wanna know.

28 days later is quite possibly one of the greatest modern horror movies (ITS ACTUALLY GOOD! AND HAS A GOOD PLOT!! LOLOL!) and its british. Alot of UK films are just shite. But everything about 28 days later including the way it was filmed is genius (It was filmed with a wide aspect DV camera)

So, was it in US cinemas? Or just europes?

I believe it was,there was a lot of adverts on pretty international websites and channels..

the US loves brit movies

especially shaun of the dead for some reason....it was good but i dunno why the americans love it so much

Shaun of the Dead done well in the U.S despite being pretty much British humour, but that was because it's so Ultra-L337 i suppose.

YOU CANT KICK A GUY WHEN HES DOWN

litarlly accroding to the UK film ratings bored thing

but you can do like a buncha other violent things

I think that there are English movies that are good enough.
To a large extent "28 Days" is a very good horror film, but other titles like "Snatch (Pigs and Diamonds)" or "Lock and Stock" are very good enough, and I´m charmend with them..
Also I remember "Full Monty", too, wich is very enterteining.
It's not also necessary to forget of classic (for my) as "The Clockwork Orange" or the movies of "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" and "Brian's Life".
So I think there are very good UK Films that you can see in US.

AMEN, brother!
Though Shawn of the Dead, Snatch, Life of Brian, Meaning of Life and The Holy Grail do top my list too...

[VirginLungs]

Shawn Of The Dead is possibly one of the funniest i've ever seen..

TO THE WINCHESTER!

[Shadic-1]

Yeah, it was in the U.S. I saw it, and I liked it. A bit weird though, but all you british people are.

[jaymc403]

A Clock Work Orange - oldie and unseen.

I thought 28 Days Later was one of the biggest shits of a movie...

Shawn of the Dead on the other hand... that was pure directive goodness. Humor+Horror mixed in a homo-erotic blend of ecstasy and oranges.

It was in america, wasn't very big though. Personally I really liked it, the movie deviated from a typical zombie outbreak flick. It touched on the more mental and emotional side of the issue, long overdue in my oppinion. Still I did think the ending was lacking. But like I said before, it's nice to see a movie without four men with rifles locked in a room going, "Lets kick some ass mothafuckas."
