Doghouse is a very entertaining time-waster and definitely one for the boys %u2013 break out the beers and just have some fun. Full Review |

|
Female zombies are the perfect excuse to show women being beaten up by men. In its trashy way, the film has just enough exuberance to be classified as harmless. Full Review |

|
A dim zombie comedy. Full Review |
|||
|
You could say that this is one step up from the ghastly Lesbian Vampire Killers, since it suggests they are getting what they deserve from the other sex. But that step is a short one. Full Review |
|||
|
A grotesque misogynistic romp, Doghouse is too laddish and corny to even hold a candle to the witty Shaun Of The Dead. Perhaps Lesbian Vampire Killers wasn’t so bad after all. Full Review |

|
The magic ingredient here is Dan Schaffer’s sly script, which constantly undercuts the film’s inherently sexist premise. Full Review |
|||
|
Like going on a stag-do with people you hate, this beta-male bilge is far too Neanderthal to do much more than drag its knuckles on the ground and sniff the rears of other, better films. Full Review |

|
Jake West’s low-budget British movie Doghouse is so jaw-droppingly bonkers that it actually deserves to be seen. Full Review |
|||
|
The acting's just awful, the misogyny undeniable, but the odd flash of Shaun of the Dead-style inventiveness means you forgive it buckets. Full Review |
|||
|
“On the piss. On the pull. On the menu”, quoth the poster, but munching on Dyer looks like it might pose a health risk even for the undead. Hideous, all of it. Full Review |
|||
|
It sounds like a straight-to-DVD stinker doesn't it? It's pleasantly surprising to report therefore, that Doghouse isn't one of the worst films of the year and is in fact a hilarious, PC brigade-baiting romp. Full Review |
|||
|
A sexist, unoriginal but entertaining bit of fun. And isn¹t that exactly what you want some Saturday nights?
|
|||
|
The sort of testosterone-fuelled Brit-pic tailor-made for a profanity-filled viewing through the beer-goggles on a Friday after a curry and a belly-full of ale. Full Review |
|||
|
A brisk, lurid and funny bit of popcorn tat. Full Review |
|||
|
A nicely gory comedy-horror flick that is a diverting bit of lads' entertainment. Full Review |
|||
|
Daft but fun. Full Review |
|||
|
If Shaun of the Dead is the gold standard of British zombie comedy, and Lesbian Vampire Killers is a tin-plated knock-off, then Doghouse must be ... Ratners. Full Review |
|||
|
Trashy, frequently silly, but no less enjoyable, this British horror comedy is never particularly scary, but it has some nice ideas and delivers several big laughs. Full Review |
|||
|
It's far too cheesy to be either scary or funny. Full Review |
|||
|
Doghouse looks as if it was knocked out in a day by amateurs, as the afternoon activity on a not-very-good stag do. Full Review |
