“They’re coming to get you, Barbara!” Universal Pictures are set to re-release Edgar Wright’s cult horror comedy Shaun Of The Dead in the UK and Ireland!
20 bloody years since Simon Pegg and Nick Frost got off the couch and kill some zombies (Sorry Z’s). The film has been fully remastered with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos for the first time ever, promising audiences the chance to experience the film as never before.
Edgar Wright commented : “Twenty years ago, the worldwide release of ‘Shaun of the Dead’ changed my life forever. Its reception since then has continued to be incredible, largely due to the passionate fans who have championed it with cricket bats aloft. Now, as we celebrate its bloody 20th anniversary with a brand-new Dolby Atmos and Vision remastered version, I’m beyond excited for everyone to experience it once again on the big screen—the way it was always meant to be seen: large, loud, and with quite a lot of red on it.”

Get ready for a gut-busting, bone-mashing good time in the hilarious horror comedy, Shaun of the Dead. 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 (Nick Frost) to save their friends and family from becoming the next entree.
Shaun of the Dead first graced cinema screens in 2004, quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon and solidifying its place in the annals of horror-comedy history. Directed by Edgar Wright and starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, the film has since amassed a dedicated following who have eagerly awaited its return to the big screen.
The rest of the film also stars Kate Ashfield, Lucy Davis, Bill Nighy, Dylan Moran, Penelope Wilton, Jessica Stevenson, Peter Serafinowicz, and Rafe Spall.
Shaun Of The Dead will be re-released on 27th September in UK and Irish Cinemas.
