Anyone else seen this film?

Bruce Campbell as an OAP Elvis in a residential home where the residents are being killed off by an ancient egyptian mummy that sucks souls out of your arsehole!!

Campbell is great as the 70 year old Elvis, and not half bad in the flashbacks either.

Ossie Davis plays JFK, now I hear you ask! Isn't JFK Dead and wasn't he white? Yes he was white, but he didn't die in dallas, they saved him and to protect him from future assasination attempts they dyed him brown!!!

Sadly Ossie Davis died this year.

Not everyone is gonna like this but Im a huge Bruce Campbell fan so i may be biased

The film has won numerous awards for best screenplay and short story adaptation.

Awesome film i got the DVD a few weeks back, campbell and davis are amazing in this film. It's quite tragic too really, specially when he salutes the president
