 Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is a horrifyingly bad movie that could have been halfway decent if they hadn't tied it to Austen. There were brief moments of goodness (such as when Lizzie starts throwing things at Darcy when he tells her why he separated Jane and Bingley, up until that scene turns into weirdly sexual zed violence that was pretty much an excuse to have barely-Clas heaving bosoms) but they were far eclipsed by the kind of awful where you want to stop watching but can't. There were a lot of perfectly decent actors in this movie who have experience in fantasy and period dramas, but they all apparently forgot how to act by the time they finished reading the first page of the script. 

(It also does not understand Austen at all, but I was expecting that part.)

This is probably the most appropriate post I've ever made for this icon, though.
