"Shaun the Zombie" is a post-watch. If I didn't see Simon showing his face, I would really think it was. It is a horrible zombie film like "Dawn of the Living Dead". Although it is said that Edgar Wright likes "Dawn of the Living Dead" very much and regards this film as a tribute to "Living", if Kuso is also a kind of tribute. Too many zombie films are easy to produce antibodies, such as "Dawn of the Living Dead", "Resident Evil" series, etc., but this film made my antibodies useless, because the jokes in it made me immune. The heroic complex of the little people is Survive on such a day when zombies are flooded.
Two films, "The Hot Blood Detective" is more perfect. If you exclude the spoof element, "Hot" has all the successful elements of commercial films: twists and turns, suspense, violent scenes, and Cult elements. It is even more interesting than the plots of many pure genre commercial films. But Edgar Wright wants you to watch more than that. The jokes from beginning to end, the unexpected baggage, will definitely make you burst into laughter, and if you watch enough movies, you will find that the whole movie has There are many pairs of different movie elements, especially Kuso for Hollywood movies. Such as "Bad Boys2", "Break Point", "Romeo & Juliet" and even "Harry Potter" have all been spoofed.
British Kuso must be different from others in its black humor. The simple Kuso is inevitably superficial, but while these two films are extremely funny, they also contain deeper thinking. Because it's Kuso, sometimes you really can't say for sure, this kind of deep theme is the director deliberately, and the theme is also Kuso, or is it just the theme that the director really wants to express after Kuso.
In "Shaun of the Zombie", we saw Kafka's metaphor for the transformation of people into zombies, a philosophical thinking that people are equal to zombies.
In "Hot-Blood Detective", we have seen the criminal behavior of those in power who voluntarily slaughtered the discordant in order to maintain the surface peace.
Or, take their own best, you can treat them as a satire of reality, or as a deeper Kuso.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that there are many rock elements in "Shaun Zombie". From the episode to the film, vinyl records are chosen as weapons one by one, so that many people have included this film in the category of rock films.
