As Johnny Vegas once said - “Who’s ready for ice cream?”
After nearly 200 episodes, we’re finally getting round to Edgar Wright’s Cornetto Trilogy, kicking off with the absolute belter that is 2004’s “Shaun of the Dead”.
A film which features more dead celebrities than Austin Powers’ address book; more cameos than a karaoke machine stuck on “Word Up”; and dares to ask the eternal question about whether or not dogs can look up.
Having honed their cinematic flair with the essential turn-of-the-century sitcom “Spaced”; Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg took their love of Romero’s Living Dead Trilogy (as it was then); melded it with British RomCom mundanity and created probably the best horror comedy hybrid since “An American Werewolf in London”; with scares, gore and laughs in equal measure, plus an absolute genuine heart. Twenty years on, this film remains a high watermark of British Horror and British Comedy, its status as a classic was never in doubt from day one.
