The transition from comedy week to horror week was perfect, in that The Haunted World of El Superbeasto was much more of a comedy than horror. This animated movie directed by Rob Zombie certainly contains horror elements, with lots of blood, monsters, Nazi werewolves and zombies [spoiler] the former made us gasp and giggle as we had JUST finished watching True Blood with the Nazi werewolves [/spoiler], and a Satanic doctor, but it was more silly than scary. Much to Brandon's chagrin, it was also a bit of a musical, with hilarious songs provided by comedy musicians Hard N' Phirm. For me, however, this was the highlight, because the lead singer of this group is one of the loves of my life, Chris Hardwick. He can pretty much do no wrong in my eyes, and these songs were just ridiculously funny. What kept Brandon from bailing out on the musical aspect was the abundance of cartoon boobies. He enjoyed Suzi X especially, and I was a big fan of her horny robot sidekick. Rosario Dawson was great as a foul mouthed (and just plain foul) stripper. I would say this was one of my faves we have watched.
Next up is 28 Weeks Later, which I KNOW for sure is horror. I think...
