DONT BE PUT OFF - By: Mr. W. Aslin, 27 Apr 2008 the people who write bad review for this are WRONG. its is very funny, there is lots of action and... its awesome!
Hand down, the best film ever made of its genre - By: B., 19 Apr 2008 SHAUN OF THE DEAD is a revelation. It's funny & creepy & witty & innovative. It also proves it doesn't take a big budget to create a masterpiece. The jokes are never obvious, but always funny... laugh out loud funny... & the gore isn't intended as a replacement for plot (as it is in so many horror films).
There is simply nothing bad about SOTD... it can't be improved upon. I've seen it dozens of times now & find something new to appreciate each time. Definitely in my top-ten favorite films of alll time.
It is, hands down, the best film ever made of its genre.
Not just funny, clever too - By: A. Clark-Brown, 14 Apr 2008 I have no idea what film those who gave below 4 stars were watching, but it certainly isn't the same film I've watched.
Shaun of the Dead is the story of Shaun, an electrical goods salesman, who not only has to get his girlfriend of three years back, but deal with a zombie apocalypse.
The script is funny & well-written, bringing the possibility of zombies to today's world; Shaun, Ed & co. are normal people living in London, & Wright & Pegg use this in their script to make it not only hilarious, but grittily real.
It's also a very intelligent film; there are countless calllbacks to both Spaced & earlier in the film - Pegg & Wright even manage to make a fart gag touching & moving. In fact, there are so many clever little jokes that it takes you a few viewings to spot them alll, making it an intensely rewatchable film.
I myself have watched it at least thirty times; it never fails to make me laugh & cheers me up when I'm down, & is, quite possibly, my favourite film of alll time.
Not as good as "Hot Fuzz", but still pretty funny - By: Gareth Franklin, 10 Apr 2008 
This was the film that first introduced me to Simon Pegg's films & I ahve to admit that I couldn't reallly have picked a better place to start. There are laughs-a-plenty & quite a bit of gore. Anyone who gives this a bad review purely because of gore and/or swearing reallly shouldn't have watched it in the first place. So if those aren't your cup of tea, don't buy it. If you don't mind a bit of either, then this is a bloody good film!
