    Bloody Hilarious!

    by myfajahas400children

    What a perfect way to end a movie chock-full of death than with the song "You Make Me Live". Shaun of the Dead, like "Zombieland". Even though it has a lack of plot, it's still really fun and entertaining. It's really gory, it actually made me gag once (sorry TMI). So if you don't like that kind of stuff I guess you shouldn't watch (or you could just close your eyes, but then you're not really watching the movie). Zombie comedies are really funny. Why didn't someone think of this genre earlier? It's funny, it's scary and it British, what more could you want? My suggestion: Unless you really hate gore, definitely watch it! It's The Godfather of Zombie Comedies!
