Shaun of the Dead?

What!?
There are many similarities.- The banker not paying attention when holding the gun and getting torn limb from limb by the zombies. (like David's death in the Winchester)
- Davey's death was very similar to Ed's.
- Impaling zombies up against the wall (like the tree in SotD)
- When they exit the old folks home reminded me a lot of the scene where they exit Shaun's mum's house.
There's a few others but honestly, I was sat there thinking these references were intentional.

When I saw the trailer, I automatically thought it looked like a cross between Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz And I'm not saying that like it's a bad thing, because that sounds like a great combination to me

Just saw the movie, it was really good. I agree the only thing it has in common with Shaun is that it is a zombie movie with comedy in it. I think this is a perfect description though of sort of a cross between Shaun and Snatch.

Good comparison - haven't thought about
Snatch
for ages - thanks for that.
Shaun
is a great film, but it's very much the Simon Pegg & Nick Frost show.
For me, a little Simon Pegg goes a long way.
This is more of an ensemble film.
And nicely rough & ready. -

I just wish everyone would stop comparing movies to that SOTD movie. It's so infuriating to see all the damn time. I see it on DVD covers and everything. SOTD is one of the most overrated and overhyped movies out there.

I absolutely loved "Shaun of the Dead." I was sorta hoping for a linkup between the two - could absolutely see this going on in separate sides of London at the same time, no? All it would have taken was a cameo with one or two of the actors in a bus going by early on (Simon Pegg was on a bus for a bit in SOTD..)
