MCT:May 15, 2008Oh Jeez.. a bunch of half-wits trying to survive the zombie apocalypse. How can this be hillarious? They only gave me a headache.. and... I wanted to kill them myself ffs!! Pffft...
This movie is highly overrated. Hot Fuzz was way better and wayy more hillarious than this. -

Holds up extremely well to repeat viewings. Also, the more horror films you've seen, the more in-jokes you will catch. We're coming for you Barbara!

Can Gore, Zombies, Action & Non-Stop Hilarious scenes be made together??
Shaun of the Dead - is the 100% answer
I decided to re-review it again. Onr of my top favourite movies and it should have a decent review.
The daffy, innately British joke that propels the cheeky U.K. comedy hit Shaun of the Dead is that although real zombies have risen up -- slacker wankers Shaun (Simon Pegg) and his best pal and roommate, Ed (Nick Frost), are too slack, wankerish, and blitheringly British to notice.
Entertainment Weekly | Lisa Schwarzbaum
Decaying flesh and inner organs being gutted out don't usually sum to funny.
However "Shaun of the Dead," merges horror, action, tension, romance and hilarious comedy together.
Shaun (Simon Pegg), an underachieving electronics salesman whose longtime girlfriend (Kate Ashfield) is still waiting to meet his parents. Part of Shaun wants to grow up, but the other part is addicted to video games and getting wasted with his best pal and roommate Ed (Nick Frost) -way to go bro ;)
It takes an attack of the undead to jostle Shaun out of his stupor. And that's only after he ignores the presence of these Z-People for as long as possible.
The use of zoom-ins and quick cuts keep things humming, but his most felicitous visual touches are those hinting at what's just out of the frame.
Ed, a part-time pot dealer and full-time sloth, is redeemed by his obvious love for Shaun, his lifeline to the real world. Shaun fails to heed the advice of others to drop his pal. When an acquaintance calls Ed "a fucking idiot," Shaun responds with "What's that supposed to mean?" Frost and Pegg are so convincing as partners in immaturity that they transform a flatulence gag into a sweet moment. Ed delights in his enduring ability to amuse his friend, and Shaun laughs despite himself.
The film offers enough gore to satisfy zombie-movie fans without being overly gruesome - just my type. Pegg picks his moments, lulling the audience into thinking the movie is pure comedy, then spilling blood and guts.
My Conclusion; If you haven't seen this "romantic comedy ? with zombies," what the hell are you waiting for???
