But, since getting stoned usually involves absurdist hypothetical conversations, overeating and lying down a lot, the opportunities to weave real, impactful storytelling are few. It's hard to pinpoint the actual problem. But should you choose to indulge in a big fat zoot from time to time, chances are that you don't tweet about it, because lame, and that you also need something to bang on the TV, because christ, your brain feels like a sticky toffee pudding.Д«ut what to actually watch? The problem with the best stoner movies is that they're about as good as the ВЈ20 bag of oregano you were hoodwinked into buying in Camden Lock that one time. And though there are plenty of COOL Californians tweeting about getting baked with people called things like Jesse and Taylor and Elijah, decriminalisation is but a dot on the legislative horizon of this strange, conservative island. Shaun Of The Dead is filled with sly statements about our self-possessed, technocratic world, overflowing with people existing on autopilot, living to work instead of working to live.Drugs are illegal, by the way. clearly understand the intrinsic value of the zombie flick. (Zombie film Resident Evil can't boast the same which is why it fails as a movie). Shaun of the Dead may have started out as a Playstation sketch in Spaced, but its roots lie very much in film and not video games. Other than the hilarious comedy, the great timing between players, excellent writing involved and cool zombies that flood the streets, the best thing about Shaun of the Dead though is that it could actually be considered a better remake of Romero's Dawn of the Dead than the recent official Hollywood offering. As our titular hero Shaun, Pegg spends much of the film shedding a well-crafted tear as a guy genuinely terrified of not only the zombies at hand, but the thought that his life stay the same and worse, that he may lose everyone he loves.

Shaun of the Dead is fun and filled with genuine pathos, scares and, believe it or not, human drama. Yes, this is another twenty-something rite of passage movie but it's a good one. A pint and a panic is the plan until Shaun begins to shape up and find the anti-hero within.

When the local neighbourhood becomes infested with zombies the only safe place for Shaun, his mum and his buddies is the local pub, The Winchester.

Stuck in a dead end job as a whitegoods salesman, Shaun would rather spend his time with best friend Ed than his schoolteacher girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield). (Think Australian author John Birmingham from He Died With A Felafel In His Hand transplanted to London suburbia and you'll get the picture). Director Edgar Wright co-writes and directs Shaun, his first feature co-writer/star Simon Pegg stars as Shaun, Nick Frost is his best friend Ed and Jessica Stevenson is in a smaller role, playing neighbourhood friend Yvonne.ДЄ veteran of 'sharehouses', Shaun is a twenty-something bloke drifting through his life.

But these guys are not your average band of jaded TV comedians, polluting the airwaves with recycled jokes and collecting paychecks from bad sitcoms. In this age of horror movie send ups, Shaun of the Dead defies expectations, a refreshingly authentic and more satisfying zombie film than one might have anticipated given that its creators hail from TV comedy and stand up. And the good вЂ“ and great вЂ“ films nearly always layer an allegory about contemporary life on top of the requisite terror, gore and monsters. Obviously not all zombie films to follow would measure up to the standards set by these directors, but the benchmark was well and truly set. The work by such horror pioneers was significant. And later on Pittsburgh filmmaker George Romero took the zombie film to a new level, incorporating the civil rights movement of 1960s America into his frighteningly realistic zombie film Night of the Living Dead (1968). Usually relegated to the realm of 'exploitation' or dismissed as lacking serious merit, zombie films have however often transcended their B-Movie brief: to scare the pants off audiences before the main attraction.ДЇrom early movie history two titles in particular exemplify this conundrum: producer Val Lewton's I Walk With A Zombie (1943) offered up a treatise on colonialism, religious imperialism and the white man's ingrained fear of exotic cultures (for anyone who cared to listen), while ten years prior Universal's White Zombie (1932) starring Bela Legosi, presented a veritable cornucopia of comments on racial subjugation, America's slave past and 'gender politics'. Like most horror movies, zombie films inevitably battle movie snobbery.
