the best is them going through the record crate pulling out wax.

and as soon as the dick roomate said 'Turn down that fucking hiphop'

I said to my roomate 'it's not hiphop... it's electro', only to have it repeated like 3 seconds later onscreen.

sure thing makros.

 

another point.... the cinematography was amazing.

There was nothing half ased about it like you get with most indie horror flicks.

The steadicam shots when he walked out of his place and to the shop are great

AND they matched them well later in the movie.

 

I should watch it again.

Great zombie flick!

 

One of the most interesting aspects of the movie is its odd mix of horror and humor. Unlike more campy zombie flicks such as Dead Alive or Return of the Living Dead (both of which I also love) that expels their humor from the gouls, Shaun takes it's zombie horror seriously, while mixing in a good bit of comedy from the living characters.

 

Make sure to keep an eye out for all the Romero references in Shaun... 'Where coming to get you, Barbera!'

my roomate seems to work on lost of zombie flicks.

She was on the Return of the Dead remake and Land ofthe Dead too.

Apparently the Shaun guys came and got an interview with Romero.

He LOVED their movie, but I dont know how he couldnt.
