Rewind & Review Ep 90 - Shaun of the Dead (2004)

It is the romantic comedy with zombies... Directed by Edgar Wright, Shaun of the Dead is the British romantic zombie comedy film which stars Simon Pegg who also co-wrote the film with Wright. Rob and Jason rewind to 2004 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this cult classic that kicked off Wright and Pegg's Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy. Shaun (Simon Pegg) is a 30-something loser with a dull, easy existence. When he's not working at the electronics store, he lives with his slovenly best friend, Ed (Nick Frost), in a small flat on the outskirts of London. The only unpredictable element in his life is his girlfriend, Liz (Kate Ashfield), who wishes desperately for Shaun to grow up and be a man. When the town is inexplicably overrun with zombies, Shaun must rise to the occasion and protect both Liz and his mother (Penelope Wilton).
