there has been a glut of zombie movies lately, so when this turned up I honestly didn't have high expectations. I've never seen "Spaced" so I'm not familiar with the actors/writers. So the movie was an incredible surprise for me. Incredibly enjoyable, with wit bubbling up in the places you'd least expect it.
One can describe this as a parody of both zombie and "british slacker" films, but i don't really view SOTD as a spoof seeing as how both genres are known for their self-satire. the genius is its bringing together the slacker and zombie models in one movie. it's incredibly funny but oddly poignant too, much like (the first) Dawn of the Dead.
