A favorite scene from the 2004 zombie horror/action/comedy movie "Shaun of the Dead." Enjoyyyy!

Let's not have this argument. Both moves are absolutely genius, perfectly spoofing the genres they're conveying better than any other spoof has in the past.

Instead of "spoofing" a genre by low-brow fart/poop jokes, or lesser actors dressing up as Jack Sparrow and repeating famous quotes with a funny/stupid accent, these guys have taken what was a washed-up genre and have made it an art. Watch Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead, absolutely EVERYTHING does it's job so perfectly. The camera-work, the music, the acting, all of this is so essential to what has made these two films as hilarious as they really are. The funny lines are only half of the humor, the rest is more subtle, yet equally as creative.

What I love so much about Shaun of the Dead is that it isn't just a spoof, it's a really good movie with better characters than 99% of "real" zombie films. It's not just a random string of gags like most parody films. In fact, even if you've never seen a zombie film, you'd be able to enjoy it just fine without getting any of the references.

*rubs hands gleefully in foolish expectation of the kind of votes he will recieve*

I wonder if anyone will be able to read this by the end of the week without turning on their Windows Accessibilty for the Blind system...
