Peter, Mary, and I braved Shaun of the Dead this evening.
Mary and I thought it was a complete hoot. Peter may never forgive me. "Shaun" is an absolutely hysterical romantic comedy/zombie flick. And it sure delivers on the wry zombie comedy front. (Who knew the words wry, zombie, comedy would ever go together as a phrase!).
However, the movie is pretty gory in a wry zombie sort of way. And that's where the Ski Boy had issues. A surging mob of zombies diembowling one of our heros is not for the faint of tummy. But, trust me. It was funny - in a British sort of zombie way.
After the movie, we fled to Southside Bistro for dinner and a great bottle of wine, the 2000 Treana Red a very spicy, well made red blend. Somehow, drowning one's zombie fears in a bottle of red wine seems appropriate.
