Very Cool!!!
It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
View MoreKeith Chegwin is a household name and an all round entertainer and has lived with us via our TV screens on Swap Shop as kids through to GMTV as parents.He is a national treasure.Hidden away in a damp dark and blood stain cellar is a figure in the dark. He sits through the small hours torturing himself watching Swap Shop on fast forward over and over again.Cheggers Plays Pop posters decorate the cellar walls. The stranger moves slowly around his memorabilia filled shrine; terrifying equipment of torture fill the cellar together with several slabs of dead meat hanging from meat hooks.In the corner a man is bound and gagged in a cage being subjected to archive TV clips of Keith Chegwin...First off, yes it's a bad film. It's not funny in the slightest and the big twist in the movie, which has been ruined by several on here, isn't as shocking as it would like to be, but blimey Charlie, it had me entertained right up to the last minute.The film is more centred around the tea boy, who has a crush on one of the presenters, and aspires to be a presenter himself. The two leads are okay, and have chemistry, but whenever Chegwin, Pasquale, or Grant are on the screen, it's a riot.It's The Boys In Blue for people who can't remember Saturday night TV when shows like The X Factor and Britains Got Talent didn't exist. For the rest of us, it's a little bit nostalgic, but in the cheesy don't let anyone know way.So all in all, it's a bad movie,but I had a lot of fun watching it.
View MoreThought I would give this film a go, as I love a bit of horror-comedy and am familiar with most of the British cast. Kill Keith, for me, had plenty laugh-out-loud moments and surprisingly good acting from all the cast, especially the celebrities playing themselves and I thought Keith Chegwin did a great job.My only criticism is the whole Tony Blackburn thing, not sure why the whole alter-ego thing was going on...Unfortunately for non British viewers, this might not be to everyone's taste but for those of us who will "get" the whole GMTV premise and the in-jokes, its well worth the watch.
View MoreSTAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning Danny (Marc Pickering) has got a new job at a television studio- as a lowly studio hand and tea boy, but has dreams of working his way up to the top, and getting his dream girl Dawn (Susannah Fielding). But her co presenter, the arrogant, egotistical Cliff (David Easter) wants to firmly keep him in his place, even though he's on the verge of losing his job and being replaced. His possible replacements include Joe Pesquale, Tony Blackburn...and Keith Chegwin! Meanwhile, a breakfast presenter serial killer is on the loose.Although he is indeed recognised as a household name around the country and still gets some recognition from the public, Keith Chegwin remains a public figure whose finest work I would be unable to know. Still, he is the focus of this off the wall little piece that is aiming for somewhere high but misfires somewhere quite far off the deep end.It's obvious what the makers of this were aiming for, an ironic, post modern comedy horror, with Keith 'Cheggers' Chegwin as the dastardly villain. The result, sadly, is an embarrassingly amateurish, low budget effort, that gets steadily more cack handed the more it goes on. It completely forgets the whole 'Cheggers-as-a-serial-killer' schtick and concentrates on a slushy, melodramatic 'will they, won't they' love plot between the two main characters.But this aside, the film is cheap looking, boring, unfunny, not as smart as it thinks it is and just a low budget monstrosity. *
View MoreWell first off not being from the UK I didn't recognize most of their actual real life celebrities that were used in the film so I had a sort of outsider view to it. As usual whenever I see a comedy horror title I'm definitely watching it no matter what the subject manner is. It's a good lazy afternoon film with a few moments of great humor and of coarse with it's low budget a good helping of cheese. One thing to NOT expect is a lot of bloody violence as it delves into the romcom area for 3/4 of the way but even with that said it still manages to entertain the viewer for a good bit of the run time due to the over the top characters and the total and complete lack of seriousness. This won't be winning any awards but like I mentioned before It's not a bad way to burn 90 minutes when your schedule is empty and you're just sitting around. The main character Danny isn't a bad chap to watch bungling around & it was amusing to see his little romantic crush with the female anchor Dawn develop throughout the film. Also I didn't check the time remaining so it can't be that horrible for a viewer to sit through. I wouldn't go out of my way to recommend it but at the same time I don't condemn it either so I'll give it a 6/10 what the hell,right.
