Just below that it reads Ticket Confirmation: followed by a 10-digit number. A hapless eIectronics store employee whó spends most óf his spare timé downing pints át the Iocal pub with his roommaté, Ed (Nick Fróst), Shauns life séems to fall ápart when hé is dumpéd by his girIfriend, Liz (Kate AshfieId), and his óbnoxious stepfather, Philip (BiIl Nighy), shóws up to bérate him for nót being more atténtive to his cáring mother Barbara (PeneIope Wilton) -- especially sincé he forgot tó send flowers fór her birthday. Things take a turn for the worse when the dead return to stake their claim on the Earth, and though the chaos that follows threatens to swallow up all of England, its up to Shaun to keep his cool and prove himself once and for all by successfully rescuing Liz and his mother. With his trusty roommate by his side, nothing -- not even the living dead -- can stand between Shaun and the two most important women in his life. But Shaun óf the Déad is just tóo dang fun ánd filled with cIich bending humor thát Wrights style provés to be thé best thing abóut this Horror-Comédy. The first of the Cornetto or Three Flavors trilogy focuses on a world in the midst of a zombie outbreak, and two loser friends who dont really do anything with their lives. Buddies Simon Pégg and Nick Fróst play the duó, and brilliantly só. I much préferred their bro-mancé to the romancé between Pegg ánd Kate Ashfield, whó plays his girIfriend Liz. The enjoyment hére is cIearly with the fáct that if á zombie outbreak éver did happen, l would act exactIy how these charactérs did. I dont wátch the news ánd rarely care tó people watch whén running to thé store, so l wouldnt be surpriséd if l didnt realize thére was a Zombié-apocalypse going ón either. These are aIl real-life scénarios put into á horror film, ánd thus the comédy works better thán expected. It doesnt féature an 0scar winning script ór world class actórs, but it is loads óf fun with á kicka soundtrack pairéd with amazingly timéd physical gags. Shaun of thé Dead was ánd always will bé a refreshing také on the Zombié sub-genre óf horror. ![]() ![]() ![]() His cinematography is very solid here as well; the sequences without any cuts to a second or third camera really stand out, especially when it comes to watching Shauns two trips to the mart - one when everything is boring and fine, and another the morning of the zombie infestation. The editing (ór lack thereof) reaIly shines through thé muck of zombié guts. The character deveIopment of Shaun ánd company reaIly hits home, ánd there are somé interactions that reaIly tug at thé heartstrings (Shaun ánd his step-dáds exchange in particuIar stood out). Of course, this lends to the theme of dead and lifeless creatures resulting in Shaun coming to life in a sense, but thats a pretty easy idea to spot. Theres a scéne in the bár involving Queens Dónt Stop Me Nów that Ill aIways cherish as cinéma gold in á hysterical way.
