Without the expectation set up by a huge budget or recognised movie stars, Shaun of the Dead was a massive success in all ways, despite having a plot and a load of in-jokes apparently tailored to a niche audience.
Simon Pegg stars as the eponymous hero, Nick Frost plays his slobbish friend and George Romero loves this movie so much that he’s just filmed Pegg and Wright in a cameo in Land of the Dead.
So anything I might say is redundant. Get it and you’ll enjoy it.
