Hot Fuzz / Shaun of the Dead Simon Pegg 2007 DVD Top-quality Free UK shipping

Pair of new classic Brit comedy features from the hit comedy team Nick Frost and Simon Pegg. In ‘Hot Fuzz’ (2007) when a hotshot young London sergeant, Nicholas Angel’s (Pegg) arrest record puts the whole metropolitan force to shame, his superiors shunt him to a rural posting hoping they’ve heard the last of him. The sleepy hamlet he’s posted to however, behind all the lace-curtain politeness, is a hotbed of grisly murder and vigilante-ism. His diligence and character sits ill with the locals – all except the Sergeant’s layabout son Danny Butterman (Frost) who’s a huge fan of the cop buddy movie genre. The pair bond and end up taking on the town in a guns-blazing, granny-kicking, rocket-launching gore-fest in the interests of ridding the town of a sinister cult of pensioners who’re dedicated to keeping order at any cost. ‘Shaun Of The Dead’ (2004) was the much-lauded comedy, described by its makers as ‘a romantic comedy – with zombies’. It fuses the style (and copious bloodshed) of classic zombie films with observational suburban comedy. Shaun (Pegg) is a useless but likeable thirty-something who works in an electronics shop in Crouch End. He doesn’t get much respect from his fellow staff, even though he’s standing in as temporary boss; his girlfriend Liz (Kate Ashfield) has had enough of his lack of direction and penchant for downing pints in the local pub; and he doesn’t get on with his stepdad (Bill Nighy). Things get worse when the living dead make their appearance, threatening to spread their zombie curse across the nation. Will Shaun be able to rise from his sofa to save the lives of the two women he loves – Liz and his dear old mum?
