funniest sh1t i ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (19 September 2006)

Strange comedy, shaun of the dead, unusually intense, but the laughs keep coming one way or another. I love how the zombies blend in so easily at first. Shaun must have seen 17 zombies before he finally figured it out. Similarly, it was entertaining how a number of the main characters were or could be mistaken for zombies during the course of their regular routine, including shaun, his mom, and ed, the obnoxious yet lovable roommate. The Mexican standoff with the beer bottles and the zombie mom was priceless. A nice shout out to Tarantino.
It was a very "today" type of movie for various reasons; allusions, eclectic blend of movie genres all gathered into one, and an edgy use of the camera, almost as if to say we know you know you are watching a movie so why try to keep it a secret. Shaun of the dead could be classified as a comedy, horror, romantic comedy, buddy flick, or family drama, and they would all be a little right. So... Shaun of the dead rules.
