A Nice Blend. Horror and Comedy Never Been Better.

One of the best comedy horror movies I've ever seen. Though you can't exactly say the comedy-horror genre exists, if it did, this bad boy would be at the top.
Simon Pegg plays Shaun, a young man doing his best to sort out his muck of a life. With a housebroken buddy breathin' down his neck, a stingy girlfriend, and a piss-off of a stepfather, he realizes he needs to organize his life in a more responsible way. It's all very hard to think through while the deceased have come back alive to eat his brains.
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost deliver an impeccable hilarity to this Zombie film, and at the same time 'Shaun of the Dead' is easy to take seriously, for the overbearing suspension it creates. 'Shaun of the Dead' IS the perfect balance of Comedy/Horror/Romance period. Would like to see more like these, for that kind of entertainment I think I'll have to watch more of the Evil Dead Trilogy if I'm up for it.
FINAL SCORE :::: 86% ::::
