Maybe drop in a couple of the other quotes too

Still features a truly unique concept: how do you survive in a zombie apocalypse when your only ability is standing very, very still. See our a living statue entertainer hero is caught up in the middle of a zombie outbreak. He freezes in fear whilst everyone around him dies at the hands of the attacking zombie horde. Left alone in a large open square surrounded on all sides with only his unique ability to save him, he must work out a way to survive. Features amazing practical special effects by Stuart Conran (Shaun of the Dead, Braindead/Dead Alive, Cockneys vs Zombies, The Descent)
