British horror/comedy Shaun of the Dead is a scream in all senses of the word. Brain-hungry zombies shamble through the streets of London, but all unambitious electronics salesman Shaun (Simon Pegg) cares about is his girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield), who just dumped him. With the help of his slacker roommate Ed (Nick Frost), Shaun fights his way across town to rescue Liz, but the petty concerns of life keep getting in the way: When they're trying to use vinyl records to decapitate a pair of zombies, Shaun and Ed bicker about which bands deserve preservation--New Order they keep, but Sade becomes a lethal frisbee. Many zombie movies are comedies by accident, but Shaun of the Dead is deliberately and brilliantly funny, while still delivering a few delicious jolts of fear. Also featuring the stealthy comic presence of Bill Nighy (Love Actually) and some familar faces from The Office. --Bret Fetzer

From The New Yorker
It is only natural to be scared of zombies, and to prevent them from laying waste to your home. A more relaxing approach, however, is to be bored and vaguely annoyed by them, or, better still, not to notice them in the first place. This is the premise of Edgar Wright's British comedy, which may be responsible for kicking off a new and specialized genre of slacker horror. Shaun (Simon Pegg) lives a supremely uneventful life, which revolves around his girlfriend (Kate Ashfield), his mother (Penelope Wilton), and, above all, his local pub. This gentle routine is threatened when the dead return to life and make strenuous attempts to snack on ordinary Londoners. The finale, in which the pub turns into an Alamo, is the bloodiest, most orthodox, and least witty part of the movie; far sharper are the early scenes in which Shaun wanders happily to the local store along a battered, zombie-dotted street and pulps his attackers with a cricket bat. The central joke is so snappy and well sustained that you barely catch sight of the ominous vision on offer: a country that already feels like death. -Anthony Lane

Customer Reviews

hands down, the best horror/comedy ever.
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. it doesnt get much better than that. these guys have outstanding chemestry, which isnt surprising considering their history (Spaced. its a great British TV show, yet to become Region 1) anyway, what makes this movie so amazing you ask? its a great horror movie, and its a great comedy. most movies cant walk such a fine line so well. if it wasnt for the lead duo it would be a straigh up zombie fest, and a good one at that, but its the addition of the hilarious antics of Simon and Nick that push this movie beyond the pale of any horror/comedy to come before it.

basically the story focuses on Shaun(Simon Pegg) and his time leading up to, during, and after the outbreak. its hilarious watching how oblivious he is during the start of the chaos (ie "she's so drunk!") haha priceless.

the camera work, acting, gore effects, and anything else you can think of are all spot on. you couldnt ask much more of this movie. its pretty much perfect. so much care and attention when into every second of shooting this movie. you'll be finding new things to laugh about throughout the movie every time you see it. it gets better and better with repeated viewings.

best horror-comedy ever.

Greatest zombie flick ever...
If I could give it 10 stars, I would. Though I am not a huge fan of zombie movies, it is easily one of my favorite movies of all time. Brilliant writing, timing and attention to details make this movie hysterical. Watch it repeatedly, and find jokes that may have came too fast or that are hiding in the background. Not only funny, but a brilliant commentary on how life can slip away from us if we don't make the most of it, as we become "zombies" in our day to day lives. Both hysterically funny and deeply symbolic, if it doesnt make you laugh and better appreciate your life, something is wrong with you.

Shaun of the Dead, even if you own it in standard version, get the HD version as well, 10x better
I almost didn't buy this movie since i already had the standard version. But at the price, i just couldn't say no. and wow, once i popped in the movie, i was greatly surprised. soo much more detail that i never noticed from the first one. This one really makes you want to go out and smash zombies heads in :D
buy it, you will not be disappointed.
