Well, you're always going to get attention with a title like THAT.
The jury's still out on this one, but you can imagine where they got the blueprint from; take the stars of a hit sitcom, put them in a tongue in cheek horror movie and watch the cash roll in. So far, so Shaun of the Dead, but while Spaced was a cult hit with subtle references to movies and comic books, Gavin and Stacy is a more broad, mainstream comedy (and totally, totally over-rated).
So can they repeat the success of Shaun? Well, who knows, but the film does look a lot of fun anyway..
Time will tell..
