A triumph of the horror/comedy genre.

Rating: Null/10 (26 September 2004)

Not since An American Werewolf In London has there been a movie so successful in this genre. Not only a great homage to the classic Living Dead movies, but a flat out hilarious movie to boot. This is not Resident Evil. Resident Evil is a video game. Even in film form, it's a video game, not a zombie movie. Not to say RE isn't entertaining in it's own right, but Shaun Of The Dead stands proud with the few movies that can make you scream and laugh in the same minute. This is destined to be a cult classic. One of the greatest scenes is Shaun walking through town on his daily routine not realizing he is surrounded by zombies. He just doesn't notice. It really does look at this situation from your everyman point of view. What if this did happen? Would you be ready with a plan? Would you have the stuff to survive? Where would you go? What would you eat? Where would you get BEER? For fans of the genre, this movie has it all. Scares, gore, laughs. What more could you ask for? Want a line up of great zombie comedies? It's a short list, but with a case of beer, a stack of pizzas, and your best buddies, it will be fun times for all. Here ya go, check out Shaun Of The Dead, Return Of The Living Dead, and the incredibly obscure but tremendously entertaining Night Of The Creeps.
