Ranked by release date:

The Internship: Billy (Vince Vaughn) and Nick (Owen Wilson) are salesmen whose careers have been torpedoed by the digital world.


The Purge: In an America wracked by crime, the government has sanctioned an annual 12-hour period in which any and all criminal activity—including murder—is legal. The police can’t be called. Hospitals suspend help.

Detention of the Dead: Comedy and Horror unite in this The Breakfast Club meets Shaun of the Dead tale about a group of oddball high school students who find themselves trapped in detention with their classmates having turned into a horde of Zombies.

Is anybody ELSE sick of zombie movies???

Personally I'm sick of all adventure/action/sci-fi/fantasy flicks with implausible, over-the-top, CGI action sequences.

When looking at movies for June, there are at least five other scary films to be released to theaters this month. They are cheap to make and require no story line. Just put some make up on and scream here and there and you got yourself a movie

Well.... I'll say this about that. that being Zombies. I'm about done with the slow shambling "Walking Dead" type zombie. I'm still terrified by fast zombies, "28 Days Later" type Zombies who are stinkin' fast and hard to kill. Nope I'm not done with the living dead just yet. As for this summer's very un-original fare? What did you expect? "Citizen Kane"?

Yes

At least they could try instead of rehashing comic book heros such as Superman.
