The new British import film, Shaun of the Dead (opening September 23), sounds like something that was thought up in a pub after one too many pints. But the surprise of this self-described romantic comedy with zombies (that's a zom-rom-com) is that it's a clever homage to George Romero's original Dawn of the Dead . I spoke with Shaun's creators at the San Diego Comic-Con.
