Shaun of the Dead ~ Horror?

The intestine scene made me sick to my stomach. It pissed me off b/c the movie said comedy on the box.

it also was about zombies. a quick read on the back would have let you know there was going to be violence, and i'm sure next to the rating on the cover they would have had something about the violence level in the movie

You couldn't have been that oblivious, could you? 😛

There are only zombies all over the cover.

And on the MPAA rating, it reads: R - ZOMBIE VIOLENCE/GORE AND LANGUAGE.

Not necessarily, but that's what spoofs shoot for. Spoofs are slapstick, first and foremost. "Scream" was a parody of sorts, and there's a difference, really.

Uh...it's called Scary Movie.

I thought Scary Movie was hilarious! 😆

I was expecting a lot of gory scenes, but I thought they were for comedy not horror... or something like that.

The funniest part of Shaun of the dead is when ED pulls the car up and says "sup niggas" in the highest tone of voice. it was hilarious.

i agree kidrock

heres the sequel ..u heard it from me first 😄

It's horror with comedy I mean take a look at the whole end sequence in the Winchester, pure Horror. The stand of with the broken bottles when David tries to kill Shaun's mom.

Some people call that scene offensive. I call them retards.

People need to lighten up.

And Deano, I'll be waiting for that movie! 😛

i was laughin my head off at that scene

IN MY OPINION IT IS NOT A HORROR MOVIE I FELT THAT THEY NEVER TRIED TO SCARE THE AUDIENCE ONLY SPOOF.

It was crap anyway

Yeah definatly a comedy not a horror, but funny "look how drunk she is" very funny as is scary movie.

Not all Horrors intend to frighten, it's the elements that have to be taken into consideration. Look at "Fright Night" or "An American Werewolf in London".

I haven't watched it but.. I think it's comedy-horror.. Like the Scary Movie series.. Correct me if im wrong pls..

"Scary Movie" franchise are spoofs. "SOTD" was just a horror/comedy like I had mentioned before, like "Fright Night".

So.. they do try and "scare"? like other horrors..

shaun is a spoof just like all the scary movie series and the i know what you did last friday the 13th, and scream is not a spoof it is horror
