Orphan Black's Tatiana Maslany added one more persona to her growing list of identities - Shaun.
For the San Diego Comic-Con, The Hollywood Reporter gave Maslany the chance to recreate one of her favorite movie moments for their "Titans of Comic-Con" feature and she chose Edgar Wright's Shaun of the Dead.
Shaun of the Dead invaded UK cinemas ten years ago on April 9, 2004 (and immediately jumped to the top of the list as one of the greatest zombie movies ever).
On this anniversary, we offer a huge thank you to Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and the rest of the cast and crew for bringing this masterpiece to us.
New this week from Universal Studios is a new edition of Shaun of the Dead in a double feature with Hot Fuzz. Bother films were directed by Edgar Wright and star Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
"There comes a day in every man's life when he has to get off the couch... and kill some zombies. When flesh-eating zombies are on the hunt for a bite to eat, it's up to slacker Shaun (Simon Pegg) and his best pal, Ed (Nick Frost), to save their friends and family from becoming the next entree. Novelist Stephen King gushes Shaun Of The Dead is "a 10 on the fun meter and destined to be a cult classic" and Newsweek calls it "a bloody hoot!" It's a screamingly hilarious zomedy that will have you dying with laughter."
The Shaun of the Dead / Hot Fuzz Double Feature is available on Blu-ray and DVD.
A quick heads up on iTunes Cult Classics sale - For a "limited time", they have Shaun of the Dead available for $9.99 in HD, along with some other interesting titles that are well worth checking out like The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai,Blue Velvet, The Warriors and Big Trouble In Little China.
