Recognized by most US filmgoers as “Scotty” in 2009’s Star Trek revamp, Simon Pegg first made a bloody splash with American cult enthusiasts in 2004’s hilarious British zombie spoof, Shaun of the Dead. Three years later, Pegg re-teamed with co-writer Edgar Wright in this offbeat, if at times uneven, romp through the English countryside as two police officers trying to unravel a slew of mysterious deaths in what appears to be an idyllic village. Filled with gruesome murders and ample gunfire (including the blowing away of satanic little old ladies), don’t miss this second installment in Pegg and Wright’s “Blood and Ice Cream Trilogy.”
