Hot Fuzz

Another week, another cinema trip, another film.

This one was great fun. The writers, director and stars of Shaun of the Dead do a spoof of American slasher films and cop / shoot-em-up films.

Basic storyline - an obsessively good London policeman gets moved into the "village of the year" because he was showing up his colleagues too much in London. He quickly becomes suspicious of goings on in the village...

Very funny, and increasingly surreal, especially once he finds out what is actually going on. There are some fairly horrible deaths and injuries, at least one of which I sadly found very funny, to the point where I'm still laughing about it...

Hey I was just searching the world of blogs and I came across your blog about the book of Ecclesiastes. Just yesterday I began a series of blogs I'm going to do about that book and I found it interesting that you and others I found have done it all before. Anyway I just wanted to say hello. My blog is tomjones29.blogspotc.com feel free to check it out sometime. I'll be checking yours out. Oh and HOT FUZZ looks pretty good.
