Yay. Love this duo. Article copied below .

Well, after conquering Hollywood with the Cornetto Trilogy and teaching us all about spaceman balls in Paul, we're delighted to say that the duo are backing working together in the comedy-horror genre.

Deadline have reported that both men have formed the film and TV production banner Stolen Picture. The duo will produce their first film, Slaughterhouse Rulez, which marks their return to the comedy-horror genre.

Slaughterhouse Rulez is set in an elite boarding school – Welcome to Slaughterhouse – where boys and girls are groomed for power and greatness and they’re about to meet their match.

The story’s hero, Don Wallace, is a wide-eyed new boy from a modest background forced to navigate a baffling new world of arcane rules and rituals, presided by sadistic sixth formers. Matters of status are aggressively enforced and conversations with school goddess Clemsie, are strictly forbidden.

But this ancient and ordered world is about to be shaken to its foundations – literally – when a controversial frack site on prize school woodland causes seismic tremors, a mysterious sinkhole and an unspeakable horror is unleashed. Soon a new pecking order will be established as pupils, teachers and the school matron become locked in a bloody battle for survival.

Their new production company will be based in the UK and they're going to be working together on a variety of film and television projects.

Hell, if they can somehow manage to reproduce/create a scene that's as iconic and hilarious as this, we're absolutely sold!

Paul was good, Worlds End was good......but Shaun of the dead and Hot fuzz I could watch again and again.

Didnt really like Burke and Hare though.
