- Shaun of the Dead was a smash hit in 2004! It introduced the world to Edgar Wright, Nick Frost, and Simon Pegg. It was also the beginning of the Cornetto Trilogy. I got together with Tom and Angela to see how the movie holds up 20 years later. Is it still one of the best horror comedies and zombie movies ever? Watch and find out!

We take a car, go over to philly, we film Space Cat (so sorry, Space Cat), then we grab Tony, go to the studio, have a nice review, and watch all of it til the show's over. How's that for a slice of eyeball?
You've got red on you.
YEEEEEEAH BOI!!!
At first I was only listening instead of watching, and I was very impressed that Tony managed to get John C. Reilly on…
💀💀💀💀💀
"Purple Rain?
No.
Sign Of The Times?
Definitely not.
The Batman soundtrack?
Throw it."
Love that line!
“We’re coming to get you Barbara.”
I love how they recreate Shaun's boring morning routine with the zombie aftermath flair to a T. And how every normal extra at the beginning of the movie became a zombie later on.
That's a brilliant detail!
A timeless comedy that still ages well 20 years later!
You can hear a car crash in the background during the scene of Shaun talking to his mum in her kitchen. Idk if that was Ed crashing the car they were in or just a random glass break from somewhere.
Come on Tony, you know what a cricket bat looks like since you were a kid. Casey jones had one, "you gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket". So says Rafael, a famous italian.
I forgot!
I love showing this movie to people who haven't seen it.
I'm going to go down to the Winchester and wait for this to all blow over. 🍻
You've got red on you."
My first Exposure to Cricket and the bat was Kacey Jones in the oringal Ninja Turtles movie.
Cricket? Nobody understands cricket! You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket!
The Cornetto thing is a reference to the theme of the movies. Strawberry/red cornetto=Blood. Blue original one=Police and green, which is mint represents Sci Fi. Lol
I've watched the "Soul Man" episode 5 times, puts me to sleep anytime I'm anxious
I can't put it on before I sleep because someone (Jess) decided to bleep Manny with the beep of a smoke alarm, which wakes my dog and me
It's a comfort movie of mine. I used to watch it too fall asleep to it in my late teens and early 20's. Love Hot Fuzz as well❤
It's 2004, I'm in 4th grade, visit dad on weekends and Everytime we go-to block buster. Had no idea what this movie was about but I rented it based on the cover. Been in my top 5 movies ever since.
I'm going down to the Winchester to wait for this to all blow over. 🍻
I thought “talking about tapes” was for VHS - YOU’RE CHANGING THE LORE
It did came out on VHS
I got my vhs copy at home
You've got red on you.
During the 2020 pandemic, I'd tell people I was "surviving" whenever they'd ask how I was.
Great, great, GREAT flick! One of my all time favorites in both comedy and horror! As much as I still enjoy that episode, I kinda wish you hadn't done the 2004 Dawn remake because that would have been a great one-two punch of 2 great zombie films. Maybe there can be a new series where you recover older HTM episodes from when the show first kicked off post-2019 like DOTD, Armageddon, or House on Haunted Hill.
I periodically revisit Shaun of the Dead & it still hits as good as it did when I seen it in theater.
This review makes me wanna watch the movie now. Lol
Me too!
Wholeheartedly agree with Tony! If I was running with people away from zombies… I am tripping people
Dibba Dubba Dubba De Dubba Da! Ohhhhhhhh! Dibba Dubba Dubba De Dubba Da!
Shaun of the dead was the first movie i went back and saw twice in the theater. Loved it so much.
Dogs can look up!
They can't!
Yes they can !
oh fuck, it just came full circle. I'm back in retail and it's at Office Max. will be 44 next month
Ever see Fido? I think it came out around the same time. Post zombie war future where things are a 50s style universe where zombies are used as pets and manual labor. A little kid makes friends with a zombie and problems escalate. Man, the mid 00s were pack with a buttload of zombie flicks.
This and Hot fuzz are two movies if they are randomly on i will sit and watch it till the end.
YUP!
You won't die on that hill alone over which "The Office" is better. You have my bow!
I literally paused this and re-watched the movie again
So many times through this episode I went "Oh yeah, that's my favourite bit". Turns out I have many favourite moments from this movie...
But now Tony, I expect to see a Hot Fuzz and Worlds End episode too!
As a huge Dawn of the Dead fan, I’d heard of Shaun of the Dead leading up to its US release and was pretty stoked to see it. I wanna say I skipped out on one of my classes at Rutgers to go see it at the Manville Theater. Worth it! 😅
Just saw it again recently at a theater down here in Florida and it absolutely still holds up. Brilliant send up of the Living Dead sub-genre, but it (and its creators) wears its love for all things George A. Romero on its sleeve….and I gotta give it up for that. ❤
Ive heard some people thought Paul was part of Cornetto.
I'm pretty sure the missing cats weren't the cause of the zombie outbreak. They're an effect and early warning sign of it. The zombie were eating them, hence the missing posters and also why the posters were ripped up later. The zombies thought the picture were real cats, so they tried to eat them, too. Edgar Wright truly is a genius. One could go straight up Charlie Day board of pictures and string meme insane trying to find a single thing in his movies that isn't a setup or payoff or a info given through little background details like this instead of just given through ham-fisted dialog like a lot of movies do... 😵💫🤯😆
Juan of the Dead, that’s a movie I loved.
@40:50 actually, there's a Breville out back. John'll do you a toasty 😂
I need to revisit this movie. Whenever I hear Cornetto I think of it being corn chips or something.
I love that you guys finally talked about my favorite movie of all time. I can't wait to hear the rest. thanks!
I always thought it was that both of Liz's friends were in love with her and they were both settling for each other.
My favorite thing about Shaun of the dead was a special features on the DVD there was the option to put pop-up information given all the Easter eggs that were hidden in there I learned so much about British TV shows that I had to go and watch all of those shows after reading the information. Making Shaun of the Dead over and over again even more awesome
Found out about the song “Ghost Town“ by The Specials through this movie. It plays during the intro scene in the pub before the zombie Credit title sequence.
What demographic does Tom actually think One Night In Soho is aimed at? You can't just give half a thought on something 😂
“Some pig” ❤️
Hard to believe it’s 20 years old! I remember renting this New Year’s Eve 2004!
The Worlds End is great as a man hitting your 40 s and still stuck in your routine you were in your 20 s. Its relatable on a whole other level. Not until you hit those 40s that is..
The missing cats are the start of the zombie apocalypse before it’s full blown
Yep, came to the comments to mention this. The zombie are eating them, which is why the missing posters are torn up later. The dumb zombies thought the picture was a real cat and tried to eat it. I swear, I could go full Charlie Day insane board if pictures and strings trying to find a single thing in an Edgar Wright movie that is not a setup or pay off or a thought out piece of info hidden in background details like this instead of given through ham fisted dialog like in a lot of movies... 😵💫😆
I'm gonna watch Hack The Living Dead when I finish watching this review. 😀
Good call!
Its the ZA man from tenacious D 'the pick of destiny!
I love this movie so much. It’s in the top 5 somewhere
I've never seen Zombie or Zombie 2 but I remember looking for zombie movie music an the soundtracks for them are so good I listen to them like twice a month.
Dogs can't look up
YES THEY CAN!!!
It's Called Cornetto cause each movie represents one of the 3 colors orf Cornetto.
Love this movie!
Long Live Shaun Of The Dead!
Dogs can't look up. Yes they can!
I don't care for Hulk Hogan, but I love Mr. America (Who's totally not Hulk Hogan)
I really love Shaun of the Dead!
WHAAAAAA I dug the whole "Talking about tapes" intro. Sad to see it go. =(
Movie is perfect wouldn't change a thing
Whoah, the 1985 masterpiece "Return of the Living Dead." Introduced the 'Fast Zombie' trope. Not "28 days later". Just saying.
@17:00 "Well you did call him a 'You Know What' ".
"Oh what, he told you that?"
"Yes."
"Motherf___"
"SHAUN!"
"Sorry mother. MUM!"
You've got red on you.
This is now my favorite episode. It took a while to topple Lotr, but here we are.
That is high praise
Cricket? Nobody understands cricket! You’ve got to know what a crumpet is to understand cricket.
We need to sequel to Hack the Living Dead, Tony of the Dead.
Talking about tapes pre 2004
Post 2004 hack the movies due to VHS Distribution being slowed by major companies
1:07:15 it's a fairly well-known piece of trivia at this point, but Spielberg hired a bunch of amputee extras for the opening of _Saving Private Ryan_ too
Spaced is amazing!
Cricket!' 'Cricket? Nobody understands cricket!' You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket!'
I knew it was gonna be amazing when the opening was a track from Dawn of the Dead, the artists called Goblin..It gave me goosebumps..
I liked it on patreon a few days ago
Speaking of Cricket props. The US & West Indies are hosting to the 2024 T20 Cricket World Cup in June. It might mean the odd Cricket bat suitable for Sean of the Dead cosplays will show up in a small section US Sports Equipment stores.
Hey Love Your Show
Thank You So Much for the Reference to SPACED never would of seen that episode if it wasn't for this Episode of Hack The Movies
My Kids and I Love The Resident Evil Game Series and of Course Shaun of The Dead
Great to see Tom on the show again!
Yay toms back
And he doesnt have to talk about Robots or Cops or Robocops
It was a full hour into the this when I realized that isn’t crystal
Just wait for all this to blow over 😉
Babe wake up, new Crystal just dropped
NOOOO, there is a difference Tony! its the opening kick ass theme song and i care damn it
Mid Somer tells the whole story in a tapestry
I love the cat theory lol... Every time I rewatch this episode I'm like yeah..... It was the cat! 😼🧟♂️
Oh it's not Z-day, it's Z-day! And it's not soccer boy, it's football boy. Come on lads, you can do it.
37:00 I can't be the only one who's done this to people we know in real life because we've all seen it in movies... Pulling off a successful vehicle drives between you and them disappearing act IRL will airways be fun to me. I refuse to grow up, and you can't make me! 🤷🤣
I love this movie & I love this show! Thank you
You should review hot fuzz, the world's end, and Paul , both frost and Pegg, all of their movies together are awesome🤘
Fuck-a-doodle-do!!!
Rewatched this a couple weeks back cause it was the 20th anniversary
It still holds up, the jokes are great the effects are fun
I always got grossed out with the David Kill however it works so well
So is it talking about tapes / when it’s vhs you own? And it’s hack the movies otherwise ? I’ve wondered this on and off for some time
I explained it in the hellboy episode but I also think I messed it up here.
@@HackTheMovies thanks I’ll check that episode out
If it came out before 2006 it's Talking About Tapes. They stopped selling VHS in 06.👍
You should review ‘I, Frankenstein’ with Tom or Joe and Sean from Movie Dumpster!
Tom is the man
20 years..... Jesus.
I had the biggest crush on Lucy Davis. My word she is stunning 😍 still is!
I'm very insulted Thomas knocked over the late Leonard Nimoy cutout.
WTF !? I could have used this earlier while I was waiting at the courthouse! Didn't come up on Spotify
The audio versions go up after
@@HackTheMovies Oh now you tell me Tony from Hack The Movies, also....20 year anniversary!? Holy shit I'm old
Juan Of The Dead is a Cuban zombie/comedy film, but it's not a remake of Shaun Of The Dead in any way. It's got a vaguely similar vibe, a couple of lazy dropkicks face a zombie apocalypse. But that's about it.
WE 👏🏽 ARE 👏🏽 LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE‼️
I like Juan of the Dead, but it sure as hell is NOT a Shaun of the Dead remake. It just has a title that cashes in on the Dawn/Shaun name with a main character named Juan.
The point of the joke was that they first met in Greece
you are allowed to own maxim mg full size "hunting carbine"
you just need to wait like 5 years good behaviour after you are 18
there are hunting stores everywhere filled with shotguns.
it's just you can't buy a gun in a grocery story without a passport when you are 13 and bring it to school
The UK in 2004 was a very “liberal” uk. The UK rn is a miserable hellscape.
I watched Spaced when it came out but at the time I had not seen many horror movies or many of the other movies they were referencing so I didn't enjoy it as much as when I later got the dvds
