My favourite Rom-Zom-Com ever!

Rating: 9/10 (2 September 2008)

As far as Romantic Zombie Comedies go, "Shaun of the Dead" is the best of the genre! What? It's the ONLY one of it's genre? No way! But, that's where "Shaun of the Dead" excels, it's original. It's audacious. It's HILARIOUS. The funniest zombie movie, intentionally funny, at that. Most Zombie horrors take themselves far too seriously and "Shaun of the Dead" pokes fun at them every step of the way. The script is an absolute cracker! The cast, not one of them can be faulted, are uniformly excellent. Bill Nighy has great fun in a relatively minor role and adds weight to the film. I saw it, and promptly went out and bought it on DVD, so that I can enjoy it over and over again. The soundtrack is best of British, one scene in particular, with Queen's "Don't stop me now" is absolutely inspired. A British comedy masterpiece.
