Nope..  Never had that effect on me..  To quote a games mag review..
"A truly gruesome game which has kept us in stitches all month.  There's 
nothing funnier than watching your character round up a bunch of stupid 
zombies, then blow them all away with one shot.  You want Gore?  Step this 
way...  This game will certainly get an 18 certificate, but we think it 
should get a PG, because it'll keep the kids laughing for months, if you get 
scared, your probably the kind of kid who wets the bed, so go play with 
barbie instead."
