Shaun of the Dead

It's described as a "Romantic Comedy with Zombies."
It's the "Zombies" part I'm worried about, though.
I HATE horror movies. They scare the fuck outta me (which isn't being used, so there's plenty to scare away). I've only been able to sit through Resident Evil... but that doesn't count.
First off, is this scary at all? Keep in mind that I couldn't sit through 2/3 of Freddy vs. Jason.
Second off... is it good n' funny?
Any opinions would be nifty.

I don't understand

I heard alot of good things about this horror comedy. Even George Romero gave his approval to this flick, and zombies here are good old fashioned slow ones.

I got it off the net, and watched few clips, and it was pretty funny.

I will post detailed impressions later on.

Look, let me take over.

Shaun of the Dead is a british horror-comedy about a group of humans in a world over-run by zombies. It stars a comedy group that I am not familiar with but it looks very funny. It comes out this month in Britain and is slated for an American release sometime in September. I'm sure someone else here could fill in the holes. I'm going to go look for a link to the trailer.

Edit - Here you go

Well, screw this then.
To explain my previous, jumbled post, my stupid-ass friend wanted to go see this tomorrow. Unless tomorrow begins the start of my fall semeseter, I doubt that's gonna happen. I was also asking for assistance in rating the "scare factor" or whatever the hell you want to call it. I scare easily. VERY easily. I wanted to make sure I woudn't be wasting another $10 on a movie that I'd ditch halfway to go read Excel Saga outside the theater.
...and if any of you were half as tired as I am right now, you would not only be making worthless, incomprehensible posts, but you'd also be pretty damn tired.
