Shaun of the Dead. GREAT FUCKING MOVIE!
 
Shaun of the Dead was a great fucking movie.

I had really low expectations and had no idea what it was about, and came out thinkin whoa that was a great movie.

Go see. it.. It looks stupid, Zombies and shit, but it was really good..

I usually dont like spoof movies like this, but this was great.

seems like a good one. had my eye on it for a while. gonna see it this weekend.

GiantGnome 09-25-2004 12:24 AM

Xtreme Fever 09-25-2004 12:25 AM

robfantasy 09-25-2004 12:25 AM

i like british movies, but this one looked corny, but if its Boneprone approved i will have to check it out :thumbsup

boneprone 09-25-2004 12:31 AM

I had no idea this movie did well with the critics..

I mean shit, its a zombie movie lol!!

Im reading reviews on it now. I had no idea if it would be any good when i saw it. I kinda like that... I hate it when critics tell you something and you go in with a mindset already determined by a critic..

But this movie did well with critics..

Pretty cool..

Heres the website for the movie in case you were like me and have no idea what its about..

It is corny.. But creative..

DOnt read the critics reviews.. IF you go in with high expectations it may not be as good.

I went just to be entertained and have fun.. Had low expectations..

And I loved it.

boneprone 09-25-2004 12:33 AM

NICE!!!

Go to the site and look at all the great comments it got from people in the industry.

Hahah sounds just like my wife. I think women have a secret underground society where information such as this is passed between them.

Doctor Dre 09-25-2004 01:34 AM

Noted :P will watch it sooner or later

Jace 09-25-2004 01:36 AM

it is a great movie, i saw it like 6 months ago and was very surprised

SykkBoy 09-25-2004 01:44 AM

thsi was a Hugh Grant movie with Zombies...my wife loved it

for me, it's one of my top 10 movies of the year, possible top 2-3

I really enjoyed it...highly entertaining and I liked that the hero wasn't some Rambo type, just a regular shlub...

there were a ton of references to Romero, Jackson, Boyle and just classic zombie movies in general (especially the "don't say the zed word!" (George Romero never used the word "zombie" in any of his Dead scripts and forbid the use of the word on the sets)

I was hping for a little more gore, but it's a small complaint for an excellent movie....

Zoe_Zoebaboe 09-25-2004 01:55 AM

Yeah, just had some people come over tonight to watch it again. It came out in the UK couple weeks back, got my advanced copy then :)



But yeah, awesome stuff, specially in Zombie vision :)

I heard a radio review of it and the reviewer liked it, but it just sounded stupid to me. I might give it a go if it's getting good peer reviews though. :2 cents:

Tipsy 09-25-2004 04:25 AM

My wife loved it. But then she's a little odd :)

loco12 09-25-2004 06:07 AM

I absolutely fucking love this movie!

It has everything, Blood, gore, funny charactors and the lovely Lucy Davis from "The Office".

Reviews give it 93% on rottentomatoes.com
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/shaun_of_the_dead/

I hear its only on limited release in the states, playing at a miserly 600 venues. Hopefully word of mouth will soon have this playing everywhere.

It's better than 28 days later, which was good. In fact the only Zombie film to beat it IMO is the original Dawn Of The Dead back in the late 1970's.

For some reason the most disturbing, and at the same time funniest, scene I found in the movie was with the dart especially when he pulls it out of his head. The guy with his intestines being ripped out was fine but that dart.... :)

Ross 09-25-2004 06:18 AM

I've been wanting to see it for a while now. It was out here a long time ago.

I think its on DVD now. Might buy it when I get home.

Funny quotes from the film:

Ed : Any zombies out there?
Shaun : Don't say that!
Ed : What?
Shaun : That!
Ed : What?
Shaun : The 'zed' word, don't say it!
Ed : Why not?
Shaun : Because it's ridiculous!


-------------------------------

[looking through Shaun's LPs for suitable records to throw at two approaching zombies]
Ed : Purple Rain.
Shaun : No.
Ed : Stone Roses.
Shaun : Definitely not.
Ed : The Batman soundtrack?
Shaun : Throw it.

-------------------------------

Pete : It's four in the fucking morning!
Shaun : It's Saturday!
Pete : No, it's not. It's fucking Sunday. And I've got to go to fucking work in four fucking hours 'cos every other fucker in my fucking department is fucking ill! Now can you see why I'm SO FUCKING ANGRY?
Ed : Fuck, yeah!

-------------------------------

Ed : It's not hip-hop... it's Electro... prick. Next time I see him... he's dead.


-------------------------------

Liz : You, hang out with my friends? A failed actress and a twat?
Shaun : Well, that's a bit harsh.
Liz : Your words, Shaun!
Shaun : I did NOT call Diane a failed actress!

------------------------------

Shaun : If you get cornered, bash 'em in the head, that seems to work out.

--------------------------------

[after Phillip has been bitten]
Philip : You didn't call the doctor, did you?
Barbara : Well, I thought we ought to be on the safe side.
Philip : I'm quite alright, Barbara, I ran it under a cold tap.
Barbara : I really think...
Philip : We had our jabs when we went to the Isle of Wight.

Well worth buying just for the extras which are worthwhile for a change. One of the few films to pick up on it's own plot holes in the extras :)

It's region 2 so you will need a multi region dvd player.
These can be picked up cheaply.
