Went to see Shaun Of The Dead tonight, and I can definitely recommend it to you all as a film well worth seeing. I'd do a full review, but I'd only echo the comments several other people have made, so here's an amusing tangent instead.

Simon Pegg, the eponymous Shaun and co-writer of the film, has described the film as a 'Zom Rom Com' (or even 'zomromcom') - a zombie romantic comedy. In one of the idle moments at work the other day, we were discussing how many other parts you could add to that while still keeping the rhyming intact. For instance, a gay version would be a 'Hom Zom Rom Com' etc

Well, I've come up with a ten word version: an Australian film about a gay monk called Thomas, played by the actor who portrayed Clouseau's boss in the Pink Panther movies, whose English mother is romantically involved with a zombie in an ancient Iranian city with hilarious consequences. Or, a 'Hom Dom Tom Lom Pom Mom Zom Rom Qom Com'.

Anyone with nothing better to do with their time is cordially invited to try and come up with something longer...
