Shaun Of The Dead

Shaun (Simon Pegg) is not quite your average twentysomething. Lacking any real ambition and drifting along in a job that he hates, he drives his long-suffering girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield), up the wall. Despite being a very decent chap, Shaun suddenly gets a very rude wake up call when the undead begin roaming the earth (or London's Crouch End, at least) and, with the help of his slacker chum, Ed (Nick Frost), he must save Liz and his dear mum from becoming zombies! Well, that's if he can get out of the local pub...

  • Laughter and fear may not seem the likeliest bedfellows. One sensation is pure pleasure, the other is something we usually prefer to avoid in our everyday life. There isn't a great read more »

    OH YES!!!

    What a film! It's really hard to find a horror/comedy that keeps you laughing all the way through but 'Shaun of the Dead' did just that!

    The gags at the beginning were just as good as the ones at the end.... AND YET! still paid homage to the 1978 'Dawn of the Dead' film it was obviously based on.

    You must see this film!!!!!

    Quite simply AMAZING!!!!!

    Anyone who thinks they wont like this is wrong. I think there is something for everyone. Please give it a go because it is worth every second. Don't just watch it once though, watch it as many times as you can. Simon Pegg and Edger Wright are an amazing duo as proven in 'Spaced'. A must have on your list
