This one always brings a smile and good memories! I have watched it so many times now, I don’t know if I can ever watch it again haha 😂 but I know if/when I do it will certainly bring some laughs and the good ole nostalgia !

Also, to add, in terms of something bad, I was flicking through Netflix/some other movie apps and I like horror films, but I don’t understand why for example Netflix, has about 100+ horror films but about 75% of them are very poor low budget near unwatchable nonsense. I don’t mean to disrespect any of the film makers, but some of the films they have are garbage! This isn’t just in the horror genre, I think they just want to over saturate the film volume but there sure are some unwatchable films with ridiculous titles. Maybe I should lower my standard again and give some a go...

I love this one! I love the whole bit where he is out of it walking around and doesn't notice that shit has hit the fan.

My wife is from England and she introduced me to Simon Pegg many years ago. _Spaced_ is hilarious if you haven't seen it, by the way. It was his first show I believe.

A thing I quite like about this film, beside all the...everything, obviously, is that this is one of the only films where they show WHY the main character is so self sacrificing for his friends.

Now don't get me wrong, obviously I don't NEED an explanation for that. But Shaun's life is in such a dead end, it makes sense for him to be willing to kill himself protecting people who's lives "have worth". Like was directly said to you: the good things are worth fighting for.

@gooddream this is one of the great move I watch really good.

我也挺喜欢看僵尸电影

You forget to mentioning Edgar Wright, the director who make this movie a real classic. For me, he is one of the most interesting contemporary directors. Since I watched "Shaun of the Dead" I follow everything he creates. Wonderful humor, as we see rarely this days. 

Thank you for that you write about this movie. :)

promises to be a good movie, I have to watch one day;)

Summary of the film in very precise terms which I liked, thank you

"their boring and routine existence"

It's the commentary on their existence that makes this a cut above, I agree. In a way, it's funny you reviewed "Nebraska" on the same day as this, as that film is an art movie response to a mind-numbingly dull, alcohol-swilling, daily despairing existence, whereas this is a quadruple-whammy genre response to the exact same thing: 

(1) whacking the theme of routine and despair on the head with horror: by likening the zombies to the oblivion-seeking living, then going to war with them;

(2) comedy: generating endless laughs by the obliviousness of the boys, as they stumble through lives downing drinks, Nebraska style, unable to distinguish zombie hell from their daily hell;

(3) romance: as Simon Pegg's character uses his newly acquired zombie skills to fight for the girl he lost through his despairing uselessness;

(4) buddy picture: that Simon Pegg and Nick Frost live, and have a language all of their own, that transcends and transforms the horror of their lives, both pre- and post-zombie apocalypse into something better ,is special. The plot works in a lovely twist on the friends-not friends-friends again plot structure from most buddy pictures.

All in all, a combo-genre classic married to a wealth and depth of meaning. 

Thanks for reviewing a Brit pic. Love it. :)

The fact that genre makes the underlying art theme gripping shouldn't surprise, but it is the sheer surfeit of genres that makes this an exceptional film.

That and the fact that Simon Pegg and

I wonder if you would fight with the same humor with a zombie? I think no. These English guys cannot outdo. A bat in his hand, a smile on his face - that's the main weapon and way to survive among the hungry undead.
A bright, very dynamic movie. Chains so that the eye does not take. A lot of funny moments, original and unique dialogue between the characters. Humor is very thin and sharp. Not everyone will take it. Who does not know how to laugh at himself, is unlikely to laugh at this film. Do not be surprised that during the viewing, some recognized themselves in life. I'm in a couple of moments, I definitely saw myself in the faces of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. And in my opinion this is one of the best comedic duets that I've ever seen.
I believe that the film is worth our attention. At least for the reason that it is very interesting to watch how zombie heads with an excellent dose of positive are demolishing ordinary people, like us. Everyone would have such a mood in difficult moments of life.

Brittish comedies are very different from the ones from usa, maybe that's why they are so interesting.

I'm not being harsh or anything but I just wanted to say that they weren't 'copying' it. They were paying a homage to it. Or parodying it. The whole film is littered with references to other zombie or horror films. 

This film is very little known and it is really good.

this is very nice i will send 9/10 vote for this movie
