The Winchester

Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Cult classic zombie rom-com from Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg that follows on from their work on the TV show Spaced. Shaun is a salesman that wants to win his girlfriend back and survive a zombie apocalypse.

This film is both funny and full of references to other films and those are the corner stones of it's success. It also helps that the film really taps into the lazy but disaffected 20 something generation out look on life as well. Edgar Wright's direction really helps keep the pace of the film going so much so that you probably need to see this film more than once to pick up all the references.

4/5
