'A romantic comedy ..with Zombies'
That says it all, obviously the romance part of it doesn't completely take over the film, but this could be classified with basically any genre. Comedy is obviously the stand out, but hey you could fit in romance, horror or even drama into it. It's kind of funny in that way, hopefully it should satisfy everyone.
It is a brilliant take-off of 'Dawn of the Dead', which by the way I have never actually seen myself. It still has the blood and zombies, but maybe it manages to fit in some other great stuff that probably was nothing like 'Dawn of the Dead'. Just the little stuff makes you laugh the most, stuff maybe not everyone notices but it's still hilarious. I watched this after 'Hot Fuzz', it's not as if the two come together but there are small things I noticed that were similar. I liked this a lot, don't get me wrong, but I enjoyed 'Hot Fuzz' more than this.
Simon Pegg was brilliant and just like in 'Hot Fuzz', him and Nick Frost worked perfectly together. They kept the laughs going from start to finish, but apart from that I can't really say the acting was anything above average. Kate Ashfield kind of annoyed me.. I don't know why.
This is a great watch for everyone. Like I said, this could be basically any genre so just because you hate horror movies doesn't mean you shouldn't see this. Sure, it has a fair bit of zombies and blood etc. but really this is a comedy movie. And heck, If you've seen 'Hot Fuzz' then you really should see this one!
