Shaun of the Dead: parents' guide

Constant zombie violence with spurting blood: heads smashed, shootings, impalements, and a character disemboweled and pulled apart on screen. Much of it is played for comedy, but the gore is graphic.

Around 40 f-words, including at least one 'motherf---er,' plus s-words, British crude terms, a racial slur used as a greeting and 'gay' as an insult.

No sex scenes. Some kissing, crude sexual jokes (including about a friend's mother), an obscene gesture and a naked male zombie seen from the waist up. A TV clip jokes about sleeping with a zombie spouse.

Much of the action centers on a pub; characters drink and smoke throughout, and two friends get very drunk. One is a would-be marijuana dealer, and they sing along to a song about drugs.

Jump scares and zombie attacks, though the comedy keeps tension down until the final siege. A son must shoot his own mother after she turns, friends are killed, and the survivors briefly consider shooting themselves.
