Criminally underrated and I am with Rotten Tomatoes on this one far over IMDB (although interestingly the viewers at RT also voted it low, but 70% of the critics liked it).. No CGI, good gore.. pacing was spot on.. didn't get bored at all.
I only have one complaint
the grandad should have died when he was surrounded by zombies
I just felt that certain character death would have made more sense and been a more satisfying conclusion. As unrealistic as this entire thing was, that just upped it to a "bit too much" for me. But other than that, loved it.
"i'm sorry love I don't fancy you anymore"
"help me I've got a heart condition"
ROFLMAO

I was surprised, was a lot more entertaining than I expected. A few parts were a bit cliche and awkward, but thought it was very good for the most part.

It's one of my favourite British movies.
Has such that original Cockney feel to it.
Even though I'm from Essex, and not London - It still felt very homely to me
The British humour is spot on!
I love it!
I also love Doghouse, but I find this better.

The best comic zombie film I've seen since Shaun of the Dead. Having retirees go up against the Undead was a classic idea and really funny.

This was way better than Shaun of the Dead in my opinion. The comedy got annoying after a while in Shaun. Cockneys was better paced and you can't beat silver hair pensioners tearing new ones to zombies.

Comedy horror done really well. Difficult to avoid every clich but the spirit of the movie meant it didn't matter. Richard Briers with a zimmer frame trying to 'outrun' zombies was just beautiful ???

This film was hilarious. I loved the colorful cockney characters and their distinctive way of talking.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.
