Shaun of the Dead
2004
*****
Director: Edgar Wright
Cast: Simon Pegg, Kate Ashfield, Nick Frost, Dylan Moran, Bill Nighy, Penelope Wilton, Jessica Stevenson
Shaun is an aimless 29-year-old slacker, and his girlfriend Liz has had enough. When London is overrun by zombies, it is Shaun's time to shine and win back Liz. The first part of Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy is a hilarious and lovingly crafted horror comedy with a wonderful cast of characters. The script is witty and direction is sharp. Followed by Hot Fuzz and The World's End.
