zombie apocalypse films: intentionally funny ones

[Jeffbert]

I have seen a few zombie apocalypse films that were intentionally funny; I have elsewhere stated that I laugh at implausible elements of serious films & TV shows, but here I will mention 2 films that were made to be funny.

Stalled: air conditioning repair man is called in to fix the ventilation in the ladies room of a certain office building. zombie apocalypse occurs while he is on the job, & as the title suggests, he is trapped in a stall for nearly the entire film. I thoroughly enjoyed this film!

Cockneys Vs. Zombies: Heavily accented Brits out to save their mother's old folks home from foreclosure decide to rob a bank in order to pay the bill. zombie apocalypse occurs while in the bank! This one was also rather funny.

Shaun of the Dead. Can never be watched too many times. Now... Don't Stop Me Now!

Shaun of the Dead is the funniest, no contest. I did enjoy Cockneys vs Zombies though, especially Richard Briers with the zimmer.

Also, Doghouse, Zombeavers, Zombieland, Zombies at Christmas, and Black Sheep (that's zombie sheep). There's also Warm Bodies, but I've not seen that one so no idea if it's any good.

Warm bodies is quite good but it's not a funny one.

Really? I thought it was supposed to be a zom rom com like Shaun of the Dead. Ah well, won't bother watching it then!

Yeah it's romantic and there are funny bits in it but mostly it's a straight take on zombies.

I vaguely recall Warm Bodies, but as to whether it was funny, either intentionally or not, I do not recall. It was entertaining, though. Zombieland, was rather funny. There is another one, whose name escapes me, but these guy are hanging out at some Hollywood guy's house, while he is away, & the ZA occurs. That one was also rather funny!
