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?
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.
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
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.
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.
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... 😵💫🤯😆
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.
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.
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. ❤
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!
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.
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.
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.
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... 😵💫😆
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
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
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..
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
My girlfriend and i were zombies in this movie. Awesome memories The team was really nice. Simon pegg even took a few minutes to record a message for a japanese friend of mine that was a fan of spaced.
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
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.
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! 🤷🤣
You should cover the idle hands workprint. Or the Texas chainsaw massacre 2 workprint. The work print is way better and the kills have no sound and you can see the prop guys rising around the props tcm2. And the music and the tv clips in idle hands is different.
Can't wait? This episode is up now on Patreon or for RUclips Channel Members! www.patreon.com/posts/early-episode-of-102686171
I like the Evil Dead reference when Shaun is at work. Something like "Ash is sick, so I'm in charge today"
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!
A timeless comedy that still ages well 20 years later!
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!
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. 🍻

I forgot!
“We’re coming to get you Barbara.”
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❤

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
During the 2020 pandemic, I'd tell people I was "surviving" whenever they'd ask how I was.
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
One of the best zombie movies of all time 🙌
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.
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!
Wholeheartedly agree with Tony! If I was running with people away from zombies… I am tripping people
I'm going down to the Winchester to wait for this to all blow over. 🍻

@40:50 actually, there's a Breville out back. John'll do you a toasty 😂
I periodically revisit Shaun of the Dead & it still hits as good as it did when I seen it in theater.
This and Hot fuzz are two movies if they are randomly on i will sit and watch it till the end.
YUP!
Shaun of the dead was the first movie i went back and saw twice in the theater. Loved it so much.
What demographic does Tom actually think One Night In Soho is aimed at? You can't just give half a thought on something 😂
Dibba Dubba Dubba De Dubba Da! Ohhhhhhhh! Dibba Dubba Dubba De Dubba Da!
I love that you guys finally talked about my favorite movie of all time. I can't wait to hear the rest. thanks!
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! 😅

@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.
You've got red on you.
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.
Whoah, the 1985 masterpiece "Return of the Living Dead." Introduced the 'Fast Zombie' trope. Not "28 days later". Just saying.
Juan of the Dead, that’s a movie I loved.
Ive heard some people thought Paul was part of Cornetto.
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.
This review makes me wanna watch the movie now. Lol
Me too!
You won't die on that hill alone over which "The Office" is better. You have my bow!
I need to revisit this movie. Whenever I hear Cornetto I think of it being corn chips or something.
I literally paused this and re-watched the movie again
I love this movie so much. It’s in the top 5 somewhere
Its the ZA man from tenacious D 'the pick of destiny!
1:18:35 you can hear Ed crashing the car throughout the scene. The alarm is blaring by the end lol its hilarious
Dogs can look up!
They can't!
Yes they can !
I really love Shaun of the Dead!
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.
Hard to believe it’s 20 years old! I remember renting this New Year’s Eve 2004!
Love this movie!
Long Live Shaun Of The Dead!
Dogs can't look up. Yes they can!
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... 😵💫😆
oh fuck, it just came full circle. I'm back in retail and it's at Office Max. will be 44 next month
I always thought it was that both of Liz's friends were in love with her and they were both settling for each other.
Great to see Tom on the show again!
1:17:15 gay. There’s no joke that’s off limits. Even today. Funny is funny.
It's Called Cornetto cause each movie represents one of the 3 colors orf Cornetto.
Movie is perfect wouldn't change a thing
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.

“Some pig” ❤️
I'm gonna watch Hack The Living Dead when I finish watching this review. 😀
Good call!
Cricket? Nobody understands cricket! You’ve got to know what a crumpet is to understand cricket.
I love the cat theory lol... Every time I rewatch this episode I'm like yeah..... It was the cat! 😼🧟♂️
Yay toms back
And he doesnt have to talk about Robots or Cops or Robocops
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
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..
I don't care for Hulk Hogan, but I love Mr. America (Who's totally not Hulk Hogan)
Talking about tapes pre 2004
Post 2004 hack the movies due to VHS Distribution being slowed by major companies
Dogs can't look up
YES THEY CAN!!!
Just wait for all this to blow over 😉
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
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.👍
WHAAAAAA I dug the whole "Talking about tapes" intro. Sad to see it go. =(
My girlfriend and i were zombies in this movie. Awesome memories
The team was really nice. Simon pegg even took a few minutes to record a message for a japanese friend of mine that was a fan of spaced.
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
This is now my favorite episode. It took a while to topple Lotr, but here we are.
That is high praise
I liked it on patreon a few days ago
Spaced is amazing!
I love this movie & I love this show! Thank you
We need to sequel to Hack the Living Dead, Tony of the Dead.
NOOOO, there is a difference Tony! its the opening kick ass theme song and i care damn it
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..
This movie is a close second to zombieland for my favourite zombie movie , parody or otherwise
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.
Cricket!' 'Cricket? Nobody understands cricket!' You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket!'
Anyone notice that Ed has a little patch of hair shaved out of the back of his head. What's up with that?! Its very distracting lol
Babe wake up, new Crystal just dropped
The UK in 2004 was a very “liberal” uk. The UK rn is a miserable hellscape.
You should review hot fuzz, the world's end, and Paul , both frost and Pegg, all of their movies together are awesome🤘
It was a full hour into the this when I realized that isn’t crystal
Fuck-a-doodle-do!!!
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! 🤷🤣
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.
WE 👏🏽 ARE 👏🏽 LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE‼️
Tom is the man
Mid Somer tells the whole story in a tapestry
You should review ‘I, Frankenstein’ with Tom or Joe and Sean from Movie Dumpster!
Resident Evil 4 game and movie both came out after Shaun of the Dead
You should cover the idle hands workprint. Or the Texas chainsaw massacre 2 workprint. The work print is way better and the kills have no sound and you can see the prop guys rising around the props tcm2. And the music and the tv clips in idle hands is different.
