Review: Shaun of the dead is one of the reference in terms of horror comedy, together with the older Brain dead. The originality of the movie is that the zombies are part of the daily life and handled like normal persons. Then the normal humans are full of weaknesses that make them funny. This movie is hilarious. The dialogues, the talks coming from the TV, the situations with the friends of Shaun and of Liz, the situations between Shaun and Liz. Plenty of stuff with which one can identify and laugh about. The scenery is well done, matching perferctly the story, with the typical views on the streets, in the appartment to enhance that it is daily life.  I remember having compared Zombieland with Shaun of the dead. It was a mistake. Shaun of the dead is an order of magnitude better than Zombieland. I do not know why not to give a 10/10... hmm...
