There's a rumor floating around that out of work doctors turned filmmakers, Matt and Vince, are hard at work on a feature length version of their hilarious short and, after just viewing the 14 minute film, I'm crossing my fingers that this is indeed true. Why? Because Arthur's Lore is much more than just a spoof flick made by a couple of British dudes who think they're the next Pegg and Wright. It showcases the two as budding talents who are just as capable of making an exciting and action packed movie as they are at having a laugh. Plus, there's just as much of an influence from Jessica Hynes from Spaced so it wouldn't be fair to just point to the Pegg / Wright connection.
But anyway, read on to...

If we're to believe their own legend, Matt and Vince are two trained neurosurgeons who couldn't find work so started making short comedy films. Well whatever their background is, they are seemingly steeped in knowledge about genre films and appear to approach their work in the same satirical yet loving way that Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright have always done (first in television with Spaced, and then onto features with Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz).
Their new short is called Arthur's Lore and it's chock full of photographic talent. Here's what it's about:
Arthur is as surprised as anyone to learn he's the reincarnation of King Arthur - but there's no time to contemplate as the forces of dark lore are active once again and only one person can stop them.
It's hard to tell if the comedy is as well timed as the photography and special FX...
