A smash hit in the U.K., the 'rom zom com' (romantic zombie comedy) follows the bloody funny adventures of underachiever Shaun (Simon Pegg) and his best mate Ed (Nick Frost), as they cope with a zombie invasion of North London and attempt to rescue Shaun?s girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield) and Mum, Barbara (Penelope Wilton). It?s going to be one hell of a weekend. On Friday, Shaun is in a rut. At 29, he?s coasted through life ? and still hasn?t gotten very far, usually winding up at the local pub, the Winchester. Liz is re-evaluating their relationship, particularly after Shaun fails to do something special for their anniversary on Saturday. That day, there are TV news reports of unexplained calamities. These isolated incidents mushroom into a full-on zombie assault and it?s Sunday bloody Sunday. As manners and flesh take a beating, it's time to separate men from meat, humans from zombies, and living from undead. Shaun and Ed grab whatever is at hand (cricket bat, shovel, LP) to repel the attacking zombies, summoning reserves of strength they didn?t know they possessed and straining muscles they forgot they had. Rounding up friends and family, they press on towards the sanctuary of the Winchester. All that stands (or lopes) in their way are hordes of the flesh-eating undead?
