Very British zombie comedy

Rating: 6/10 (3 October 2013)

Most of this movie takes place in a pub. All the people in it are British. It even has Martin Freeman in it, that's how British it is! Shaun of the Dead is more comedy than horror and plays on its earlier peers. It's a prerequisite to know your basic zombie apocalypse movies when watching this. The film's strength is in its believability - these characters totally know what zombies are and act accordingly. When someone makes a stupid mistake the others are quick to call it out.
Compared to something like Zombieland, Shaun is less serious and more whimsical and based on sketches. The ending is cool and surprising and something I'd like to see explored in other, serious zombie stories.
