His roommate Ed looks up to him – when he can take his eyes off the TV, that is. Liz is re-evaluating their relationship. Saturday, there are train delays, people fainting in the streets, TV news reports of unexplained calamities – and did that homeless man just try to eat a...? No, it can't be... But, it is – the dead have risen. Saturday's isolated incidents mushroom into a full-on zombie assault and, once daylight breaks, it's Sunday bloody Sunday. Shaun and Ed grab whatever is at hand to repel the attacking zombies, summoning reserves of strength they didn't know they possessed and straining muscles they forgot they had.

Ok everyone, this is one of the funniest, cutest, cheesiest movies ever, and it is so good it is worth not just renting, but buying!

Zombies terrify me. The brain chewing, the molting of rotted flesh, the overall undeadiness. Yet I find them so amusing, those dim, sludgy, wobbly bringers of undeath. This import does a fantastic job of showcasing the versatility of the near-departed. Take everyone you know to see this film.
