Re: Best Comedy Movies.

If you guys are wanting to see a comedy that is a little out of the ordinary, see Shaun of the Dead.

Saw it. One weird movie. Not for kids though. The language was pretty bad.

Did you like it though? I would say its like a British version of the Scary Movie series. Only instead of making fun of multiple movies, they only make fun of Dawn of the Dead. It definately is not for kids like GAC said. There are also some pretty gorry parts. I just love the little things in the movie that a lot of people miss. On the surface, it just looks like a stupid comedy like Dude Where's My Car, but some of the comedy is missed because you really have to think about it. Some may argue that and say I'm looking too deep into the movie, and maybe I am, but I loved this movie.

Yeah, it was a funny spoof of the Romero zombie films, with British humor.
