"Shaun of the Dead"
2004
Directed by Edgar Wright

The hit zombie romantic-comedy that frightens while delivering smart laughs and relevant social commentary. Shaun (Simon Pegg) trudges through life with a mindless gait, spending endless nights at the pub with his slob friend, Ed (Nick Frost), and his frustrated, neglected girlfriend and her pretentious friends. It takes a drastic event, such as the dead returning to life with a hunger for human flesh, to kick Shaun into gear to save his family, friends and relationship. A perfect combo of dry, British comedy, tense horror, and gore, Shaun of the Dead is the heir apparent to the classic George Romero zombie films.  99 minutes.
