For those who haven’t seen it, Shaun of the Dead is a horror comedy about a pair of schlubby friends (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost) who find themselves in the center of a quickly escalating zombie apocalypse. They decide it’s up to them to save their friends and family, and off they go on a quest to fight off the undead.
