Shaun of the Dead by Edgar Wright

Category: English

I had my reservations about this movie since I am a big fan of the Zombie movie genre and to see it getting ridiculed would be painful. I did watch this film and thankfully there's a decent amount of gore and British humour to take this film to a 3 star rating!

Obviously ZombieLand will be another good film to watch but this one completely hams away at the Zombie genre. The movie has Shaun looking to take charge of his life by doing a completely 180 degree with his girlfriend and of course sort his relationship with his step dad and try and find a great job! All this takes a de-tour as Z-day strikes and wreaks havoc. Ironic in nature the survivors head to the nearest pub to survive the catastrophe.

This is definitely one of the must sees of the Zombie films one will come across, Simon Pegg is remarkable and this film has his brand of humour completely stamped up on it. Do take a look at the supporting cast as well.

Recommendation level: 3/5 - Hell yeah!
