Shaun of the Dead
As the title suggests, it’s a Dawn of the Dead-inspired horror comedy, British style. Winning rave reviews from the online community and fairly good reviews from the known critics, I thought this would be splendid. Truth be told, luckily I didn’t see it in the movie theatre, as this is a typical movie best served on your homevideo system.
A low budget Working Title production, they try to focus on the characters, which is always fine. However, it doesn’t reach any highs or lows, hanging somewhere between predictable and fairly enjoyable. Same goes for the story itself. The humor is what you expect from the Brits. Combined with the absent visual extravaganza, rent it if you have a lot of time to kill.6½.
