10 years of Flick Filosopher: bring out yer undead

I’ve got a mad creative crush on Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright, want to have their babies, etc. From my review of Shaun of the Dead:

I mean, who, precisely, said you couldn't have a zombie romantic comedy? Why can't the male lead express his undying devotion for his ladylove by bashing dead people in the head with a cricket bat? Honestly, isn't the real question: Why did it take so long for someone to combine the meet-cute with the undead feasting on entrails?

who I am


I'm MaryAnn Johanson: writer and ponderer in New York City who drinks too much wine and thinks way too much about such inconsequences as movies, TV, books, and the meaning of life.
