Happy Friday, and welcome back to the 31 Days of Halloween in movies.
Quote from WEDNESDAY
“Anytime I grow nauseous at the sight of a rainbow or hear a pop song that makes my ears bleed, I’ll think of you.” — Wednesday, Sn 1
“It’s Day 25—and a little misstep on my part! My 31 Days of Halloween movie series officially wrapped up, but while recapping the month, I realized I completely forgot to share Part 2 for this movie. 🍂 So here I am, on November 6, adding my missing entry. It feels fitting, honestly—fashionably late, a little out of season, but still keeping the spooky spirit alive just a bit longer.”

When he’s not working at the electronics store, he lives with his slovenly best friend, Ed, in a small flat on the outskirts of London. The only unpredictable element in his life is his girlfriend, Liz, who wishes desperately for Shaun to grow up and be a man. When the town is inexplicably overrun with zombies, Shaun must rise to the occasion and protect both Liz and his mother. [TRAILER]
MY RATING [0-5]: (✨4.9✨) Shaun of the Dead 🧟♂️ This is probably one of the silliest horror movies I’ve ever seen—and trust me, I’ve seen plenty. While there are definitely others that take the crown for pure absurdity, Shaun of the Dead always makes my list for its perfect blend of humor and horror. The zombies here aren’t exactly terrifying—they just want to eat your brains and steal your knowledge (in the most ridiculous way possible). It’s campy, not really scary, full of over-the-top kills, and an absolute blast from start to finish.
