The beloved British horror comedy, Shaun of the Dead, is set to leave Netflix in just 18 days, so fans better hurry and get their fix before it's gone. Written by the dynamic duo of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, this film has won the hearts of many and even received two nominations at the British Academy Film Awards. But unfortunately, its time on the streaming platform is coming to an end on February 1.
For those who haven't seen it yet, the movie follows the story of Shaun, a slacker living in London who gets dumped by his girlfriend Liz after failing to plan an anniversary date. To drown his sorrows, he heads to the pub with his best friend Ed, but things take a turn for the worse when they realize the world is being taken over by zombies. This forces Shaun to take action and rescue his mom, kill his stepfather, and seek refuge in his favorite pub, The Winchester, with Liz by his side. However, things don't go quite as planned.
Despite its comedic take on a zombie apocalypse, the film also has a 92% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics and audiences alike praising its clever humor and social commentary. Many have even deemed it the best horror film of all time, with its perfect balance of humor and tragedy. It's no wonder that fans are devastated by the news of its departure from Netflix.
But fear not, as the movie can still be found on ITVX. And for those who haven't seen it yet, there are still 18 days left to catch it on Netflix before it's gone. In the meantime, fans can also look forward to rewatching the other films in the Cornetto Trilogy, which includes Hot Fuzz and The World's End.
It's always sad to see a beloved film leave a streaming platform, but as they say, when one door closes, another one opens. And in this case, Netflix is making room for new additions by bidding farewell to several titles in February. So if your favorite film or show happens to be on the list, it might be time to clear some space in your schedule.
