Thirsty for Another Cornetto
In 2004, the self proclaimed RomZomCom (that’s Romantic Zombie Comedy) Shaun of the Dead took audiences all over the world by total surprise. The film’s loving allusions to the zombie genre, as well as its strong grounding in character and perfectly timed comedy won theatergoers over and made it one of the most beloved films of the year. The same team came together for the 2007 follow up comedy Hot Fuzz.
Where Shaun was a send up of zombie horror, Fuzz was the team’s hilarious take on bro-mantic cop actioners. It turned out to be another huge success and was, in my opinion, one of the greatest comedies ever made. Now, for one final go at another beloved genre, director Edgar Wright, and actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost decided to tackle the end of the world sci-fi thriller.
