After decades of research and failed prototypes, England has produced the ultimate date movie - Shaun of the Dead. It's a special kind of movie that becomes everything you're expecting - if you're expecting a zombie movie, you'll get it; if you're expecting a romantic comedy, you'll get it. All in all, a brilliant piece of work, with light accents and bitingly self-referential humor. The opening scene may be the best in media res introduction I've seen in years.

Now I will stop gushing.
