The marketing of this film was inspired timing; it would’ve never got a quarter of the interest if not for being released a few weeks after the UK got to see the Dawn of the Dead remake. Horror movies are now being assailed by instant parody. even the total genius of Simon Pegg’s Spaced TV series didn’t make him a household name.

Mildly amusing with enough laugh out loud moments and lines to repeat all day to people at work which they do not find funny at all, but a times it hovered dodgily between black comedy and farce. More Bad Taste offal moments of gore would’ve been appreciated.

The most interesting scene to me, a musical fanatic, was when Shaun and Ed were discussing which piece of vinyl to use as anti-Zombie throwing star. I actually let out an audible “Oh No!” as he revealed the floppy disc sleeve of the recently smashed “Blue Monday”.
