"'Shaun of the Dead' is the second movie by Edgar Wright (director of 'Scott Pilgrim Against the World') and a significant milestone in his career. It was his first movie to become popular among a large audience, the first movie of the famous and sensational Cornetto trilogy, and the first partnership between him, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, which he repeated several times afterwards. The movie became popular and earned a place in the imagination of geek culture due to its theme and skill with the genre, becoming a current classic of zombie films. It's no wonder, 'Shaun of the Dead' plays very well with the mix of comedy and horror, has brilliant visual jokes and a dynamic and intelligent editing. Edgar Wright is a visual comedian, and this movie was a laboratory for his experiments."
