Kate Ashfield, Nick Frost, and Simon Pegg in Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Want to avoid jump scares and nightmares while still joining in on the fun of the season? We've got a list of Halloween-ready horror movies perfectly suited for "scaredy cats." For the totally fear-averse, try 'What We Do in the Shadows,' 'Coraline,' or 'Haunted Mansion.' If you don't mind the occasional zombie, ghoul, or spellcaster popping up for a surprise, check out 'Warm Bodies,' 'The Witches,' and 'Shaun of the Dead.' Or if you're feeling a bit braver this year, we've got two psychological thrillers to test your limits: '10 Cloverfield Lane' and 'Get Out.'

Wissenswertes
George A. Romero, creator of the movies to which this movie pays homage and lampoons, was so impressed with Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright's work that he asked them to cameo in Land of the Dead (2005) as zombies.

Patzer
Simon Pegg appears to shout 'Nick look out' as the car runs over the zombie, referring to actor Nick Frost and not his character, who is called Ed.

Zitate
Shaun: David, kill the Queen!
David: What?
Shaun: The jukebox!

Crazy Credits
The credits end with the incidental Mall Muzak from Zombie (1978).

Didn't expect the film to turn out to be this. Haha.

I've seen a lot of Zombie movies, a subgenre that I think has been overdone but I keep going back to it to see how different can your storytelling be?

I'd always heard good things about this movie and finally got around to this 'cult classic', and I see it's got that status. This was a zombie movie like none other, you've got to watch it to find out why.

This, as the card says, is a romantic comedy with zombies. Didn't think you could introduce romance and humor in zombie movie without making it a "Scary Movie" but huh, they've done it, and have ended up making a very deep movie out of it, with all sorts of social commentary.

If, like me, you've been sleeping on this movie, don't. Watch it soon and read up on what people have to say about it to enjoy it even more.
