Funniest zombie flick I've seen in ages

Rating: 8/10 (30 June 2006)

Well okay, maybe not in ages... I do own Braindead and Bad Taste, but still.
As you might guess 'Shaun of the Dead' is a member of humorous zombie splatter movie genre. In this particularly bloody, yet humour lazed horror sub genre SOTD isn't the most bloodiest one, that would be Braindead I think, but it does keep you entertained and it does show, that you can actually keep the minor problems with the deaders as a background issue, while the Shaun (Simon Pegg) is trying to mend his relationship with his girl Liz (Kate Ashfield).
The main question in this genre is how well do the jokes interact with the massacre. In this case I may say, that I laughed hard in some places and if not out loud then I managed to get a smirk on my face while watching.
The special effects are quite good and while the zombie mask aren't from the most imaginative I've seen they work very well. I believe, that a fans of the genre would find this movie entertaining and I actually think, that even the non fans get a couple of chuckles out of it, as I said, the gore level isn't from the highest end.
