Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Those freaking Brits.

Although gruesome at parts, this movie was so hilarious my face hurt. With everything you could expect from British humor minus a movie that revolved around vulgar activity, Shaun of the Dead is a movie with perfect timing. When it doesn’t seem like it can get any worse for a loser electronics manager, it does. His girlfriend breaks up with him, his step dad is breathing down his neck, and his friends want him to kick out his grotesque roommate (think Jon Belushi but English and non-deliberately dumber).

Then, something cataclysmic happens, and all off a sudden, 90 percent of the population is turned into zombies. Shaun seeing his chance to make something of himself, sets out with his roommate to kill as many as they can in the funniest possible way.

Having seen this movie for the first time in four years, it’s rating slipped some then if I had commented on it at that time. With edgy jabs and the best musical revolving around body noises ever constructed, this is still a classic and a piece of my college nostalgia.
