Shaun of the Dead:

[wednes]

It was awesome!!! Funny, gruesome, scary and bloody...this film had well developed characters, a solid story and lots and lots of nerdy references. Here are the films I noticed being referenced (without spoilers):

Night of the Living Dead
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Evil Dead Series (twice)
Resevoir Dogs
Man Bites Dog
28 Days Later
Every Which Way But Loose
White Zombie
...and one other movie that i can't think of the name of.
Plus I'm sure I missed a few.

Anyway, it was fabbo. See it, buy it...love it!

Oh, and wish me luck, I'm calling to apply at the theatre tomorrow.
