Even the morbid ending had some humor! Edgar Wright has always been a solid filmmaker, and this first installment in the 'Cornetto Trilogy' stands as his rise to fame. The dialogue is quick and witty, the chemistry is strong (especially between Pegg and Frost), and the film delivers both in an action and comedic sense. This British film is a bloody good time, mates. After a bad day ends with a wild night at the bars, Shaun and Ed wake up to find the world infested with zombies, and they join forces with others to overcome the threat. Shaun of the Dead stars Simon Pegg as Shaun, a boring man with a dead-end job and repetitive lifestyle which includes nightly trips to the bar with his fiance, Liz (Kate Ashfield), and best friend, Ed (Nick Frost). Shaun of the Dead was and always will be a refreshing take on the Zombie sub-genre of horror. It doesn't feature an Oscar winning script or world class actors, but it is loads of fun with a kicka** soundtrack paired with amazingly timed physical gags. These are all real-life scenarios put into a horror film, and thus the comedy works better than expected. Or even the gag where Pegg struggles to shoot a shotgun. I don't watch the news and rarely care to people watch when running to the store, so I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't realize there was a Zombie-apocalypse going on either. The enjoyment here is clearly with the fact that if a zombie outbreak ever did happen, I would act exactly how these characters did. I much preferred their bro-mance to the romance between Pegg and Kate Ashfield, who plays his girlfriend Liz. Buddies Simon Pegg and Nick Frost play the duo, and brilliantly so.

The first of the Cornetto or 'Three Flavor's' trilogy focuses on a world in the midst of a zombie outbreak, and two loser friends who don't really do anything with their lives.

But Shaun of the Dead is just too dang fun and filled with clichГ© bending humor that Wright's style proves to be the best thing about this Horror-Comedy. Sometimes a director's style can overtake the story so much that the film suffers for it, and that was the case with the more recent The World's End, in my opinion.
