SHAUN OF THE DEAD
Special Features: 20th Anniversary | Presented in partnership with the Silver Spring Zombie Walk
A surprise hit in 2004 and an enduring cult item since, Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg's "rom-zom-com" — a romantic comedy, with zombies — remains one of the best examples of the horror-comedy hybrid genre. Dumped by his girlfriend, slacker appliance salesman Shaun (Pegg) is so down in the dumps that he fails to notice the zombies taking over his London neighborhood until one pops up in his backyard. Fortunately, he and his couch-potato flatmate Ed (Nick Frost) prove to be ace zombie dispatchers and round up their remaining loved ones to make a final stand at their local pub, the Winchester.
