Synopsis

Happiest in his grubby local pub, good-natured loser Shaun has to get in touch with his inner hero after he and a ramshackle group of his friends find themselves thrown into a battle against marauding zombies in modern-day London. From the team that brought us cult TV favourite Spaced, Shaun of the Dead's wit and vitality was a shot in the arm for the British film industry when it was released in 2004. An affectionate homage to the zombie genre, filled with likeable performances, endearing characters and priceless one-liners.
