Another funny movie from the Brits. It's interesting how each country has its own brand of humour. Japanese/Koreans tend to be slapstick and overacting, and use facial and vocal expressions a lot. Filipino humor tends to be low-brow. French comedy is funny, but I can't figure out why. I'm not sure if Stephen Chow represents Chinese humour - but that guys is LOL funnee.
Anyway, story is about Shaun and Ed who wake up and find that the whole neighborhood turned into zombie land. On their way to rescuing Shaun's Mom and girlfriend (two different people), they get to bash and maim and run over a lot of zombies. But the numbers are against them. One by one - his stepfather, his Mom, his mates, his best friend Ed are either devoured or bitten/converted by zombies, while they wait it out in the pub - Shaun's great idea. The military came in at the last minute and blew away all the zombies. Actually, not all the zombies. The leftovers were recruited as cheap labor, and Shaun managed to retrieve zombie Ed, so he has someone to play video games with.
Humour, blood and gore, decapitations, action, suspense, drama, romance, etc. in 90 minutes. Not too bad.
