Crazy, zany movie but incredibly FUNNY

Rating: 10/10 (9 September 2004)

Didn't really expect to enjoy this movie - zombies? There was the sci-fi element (and I'm a sci-fi freak) but that was a very minor component. Give me a good thriller or action movie...
I think it has something to do with Shaun being the epitome of today's confused male. His inner confusion is expressed in his outer life - he is hardly in control of anything: his job, his life, his relationship with his girlfriend. Zombies taking over the world? It's just a logical extension of what he has come to expect.
The others in the gang-of-five - his childlike, awkward friend Ed, the straight-laced Dianne and David, and the spunky Liz perfectly compliment the humorous situation as the day wears on and the Zombie Menace comes to a climax.
Theatre-Of-The Absurd perhaps, but somehow it just got me in - I laughed throughout the film and thoroughly enjoyed it.
