Cult Classic!!

Rating: 9/10 (3 June 2019)

There is a reason why after 15 years this film still has a high rating and is still a fond favourite of mine to watch!
The beginning of the Cornetto trilogy (not including Spaced) goes off with a bang. Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost delivers a fun packed action Zombie Thriller.
We are introduced to Shaun (Pegg) looking animated in a pub whilst being spoken at by Liz (Kate Ashfield) about their sinking relationship. Ed (Frost) is introduced whilst playing a slot machine, he is overweight, dirty and foul mouthed (a bit of a stereotype) which has me laughing from the start. A series of events with Shaun failing Liz's needs and being obsessed with the Winchester Pub sees him being dumped and then to make matters worse the zombie apocalypse arrives...
With Ed in tow Shaun's plan is to: Take car. Go to mum's. Kill Phil, grab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over. A perfect plan in Shaun's eyes... but then that wouldn't make a film if all plans went accordingly.
With a British star studded cast of Bill Nighy, Peter Seraginowicz, Lucy Davis, Dylan Moran, Penelope Wilton, Martin Freeman and many more it is no wonder why this comedy has become a cult classic and possible the best Zombie film, unintentionally, out there.
Mentions also must be made to all behind the scenes too, with a limited budget Wright has created a masterpiece. For those more into the Cornetto universe then keeping an eye out to all nods of pervious enterprises and future is a must. Especially when seeing Tyres from spaces as a zombie in the crowd.
I will forever live this film and glad it has become the classic that it is!
