da Vinci does it again - or is there a new master in town?

I absolutely love watching trailers on the Apple Trailers web page and I came across this little gem while scanning the latest movies. Being an art history major I love when I come across famous art pieces in today's world appropriated to something completely different and hilarious.
The picture above is Steve Carell in Dinner for Schmucks. The movie doesn't look that great but there is one scene that I could not stop myself from laughing. As you can see, he re-enacts the Last Supper with rat corpses. Even the perspective scheme is correct! Well done is all I have to say!

P.S. Here is the link to the trailer on Youtube if you want to see more of the Last Supper scene (scan to 0:47 for the Last Supper scene):
