7th Street Classic Film Series Presents: “Shaun of the Dead” @ 7th Street Theatre
Oct 24 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
7th Street Classic Film Series Presents: "Shaun of the Dead" @ 7th Street Theatre | Hoquiam | Washington | United States

The huge hit TV series “Walking Dead” resumed pushing the atrocity envelope this week, with some humans behaving far worse than the zombies. But for a completely different take on the massively popular zombie theme, why not try the 7th Street Theatre’s Halloween movie, the hilarious “Shaun of the Dead.”

Shaun, played by Simon Pegg (who also co-authored the screenplay), finally decides to turn his rather aimless life around, but encounters an unexpected good news/bad news situation. The bad news is that a zombie apocalypse has begun in London. The good news is that it might just offer Shaun the chance to prove himself, provided he can help his friends survive those who have become, as Shaun’s mother says, “a bit bitey.”

The dialogue is often hysterically funny and the film is loaded with pop culture references. It actually created a new genre sub-category, the “rom-zom-com,” or romantic zombie comedy.
