Good fun! The Shane McGowan zombie was particularly good.
Having said that, I do wish they'd (erm, you'd, since I believe that the person who made it might be reading this) varied the camera angles a bit more. The original music video for the piece works well partially because of the careful shot setup. I can appreciate that's difficult for something like this, though, which is either being shot in a hurry or on a webcam or similar (I wasn't sure - could be wrong).
Not a "this was awful", just a "this could have been more awesome!".
The camcorder they used came free with a stationery order and they wanted participants to stay as still as possible because its quality was dire. Chris, the director, also said it was the first time he'd wielded a camera for any length of time, so while your criticism is entirely valid there were extenuating circumstances.
If you can be bothered to click through to the "response" video you'll see what I put together by taking the main footage they got and a couple of short "behind the scenes" shots. The latter were recorded on my pocket stills camera (a Sony W35) and the quality of it was WAY higher.
