"Shaun of the Dead" - need a favor from someone...

[housepig]

if there is anyone here who has a copy of "Shaun of the Dead" (I'm pretty sure it's out in the U.K.) could you do me a favor?

I need to get an mp3 or wav file of the very first 30 seconds of the film - it's over the production company logos, it's a "scary synth" kind of sound.

I think they sampled it from another zombie movie, as an inside joke, but I need to hear it / compare it to make sure.

if you can help, please email me at shaun[at]housepig.com or post the clip in this thread.

mods - I don't think this counts as a warez post, but if it's over the line, please let me know and I'll remove it.

Is it out already in the UK? I heard it was coming Dec 21st.

[housepig]

I could be wrong - I thought it was already out somewhere outside the US....

I live in the US and rented Shaun of the Dead about 3 weeks ago fro the local video store, for what that's worth. They had at least 3 copies, I think. It was Region 1, and nothing seemed strange about the disc/cover/etc.

(but no, I don't have that sample for you; sorry)

EDIT: Nevermind, sorry -- I see now that you were asking if it has been released in the UK yet. I was thinking US because Amazon has it listed with a Dec. 21 US release date, which I noticed a week or two ago when I was going to buy it as an xmas gift for someone... which was strange since I had just rented it...

Just realised i don't have a DVD drive!!

But i can confirm it's from Dawn of the Dead. a guy called Joel Martin has put out an album of music from Dawn of the Dead and it's on there.

well, I know that the end credits have themes from Dawn of the Dead, but the movie I was actually thinking about is called Shock Waves.

Damn you cobra for stealing my thunder.

That's what you get for distributing PC components around your house, flan. Must have been a hell of a long IDE cable to get to the fridge and back!

Nicely mixed into 'Ghost Town' by The Specials

Cobra -

thanks - on second listen, it *is* from Dawn of the Dead... when I was sitting in the theater, I could have sworn it was a synth stab from Shock Waves. (which still would have worked, being about zombies... underwater Nazi zombies, but still zombies).

Flan, you've always brought out the best (worst) in me. It must be that English charm
