Finally, after so many years of waiting to see this it's finally here. If you've read the book, don't spoil it.

Best way to describe it is a serious BAD trip after a night of too scary first person shooter games and ghost stories.

Very cool. I was helping with some lighting for a shoot at Precinct 13 this weekend and they were talking about the trailer. They did some of the SFX I believe.

Nice.

I also like how the leads are virtually unknown, John, David, and Amy (girl wither 3D glasses).

And I know how the Harry Potter book fans feel now having seen something I absolutely love come to life. Spotting the locations and hearing the dialogue from the book is so sick.

The opening question in the trailer opens the book as well. And the scenery. Only I remember it being Ina kitchen instead.

Looks like an awesome trailer. I think I'll have to read the book before the movie comes out now.

I own a copy of Bubba Ho Tep. I don't know anything this one. I'll certainly see it.

I've got the original paperback version and I think I have the unedited version on a hard-drive somewhere. Same stories just a few changes, because they couldn't use the name of the town in the official print version.

There's another paperback version now which drove up the price of the original paperback's worth on ebay, pretty neat.

You can also get it on iTunes/iBooks if it makes it easier. I think I bought it there, as well.

Finally saw this today... (I didn't know what it was / never heard of it)

Fun, wacky, entertaining, loved it!
