The best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost movies and series are typically brilliant combinations of comedy, drama, and several other genres/sub-genres. This formula was made famous by director Edgar Wright, who collaborated with Frost and Pegg in the Three Flavors Cornetto trilogy. All three famously worked together on the genre-mashing dramedies, Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World's End.

However, Pegg and Frost's Edgar Wright movies aren't the only collaborations that deserve a spot in anyone's weekend movies playlist. Fueled by their well-publicized but deeply genuine friendship, Pegg and Frost's collaborative efforts are products of a long and creative partnership that goes way beyond the Cornetto trilogy. This has resulted in both great and arguably bad content, though it remains fair to say that any Nick Frost and Simon Pegg show or movie is interesting. Here's every notable, full project collaboration between the duo, ranked worst to best.

8 Slaughterhouse Rulez (2018)

  • Available for purchase on Prime Video

Slaughterhouse Rulez tried taking a page out of Edgar Wright's book, but it just didn't work. The outlandish plot is very reminiscent of Pegg-Frost-Wright's earlier Cornetto work, as it follows a British boarding school that is attacked by subterranean monsters. The movie stars Pegg as Meredith Houseman and Frost as Woody Chapman, and it was produced under their company Stolen Picture. The movie opened to poor reviews, with critical consensus calling Slaughterhouse Rulez an uneven blend of comedy and horror. That said, even though it may not be one of the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost movies, Slaughterhouse Rulez is still a really fun B-movie.

7 The Adventures Of Tintin (2011)

By 2011, both Simon Pegg and Nick Frost were major Hollywood stars, and the pair got to work with the legendary director Steven Spielberg on The Adventures of Tintin. While the movie is entirely computer-animated, both Pegg and Frost provided the voices for Thomson and Thompson, police detectives who are near identical to each other (including their similar names). Apart from the Adventures of Tintin being helmed by the ideal director for fleshing out an epic adventure, it counts among the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost movies for how it perfectly leverages the comedic duo.

6 Paul (2011)

  • Available for purchase on Prime Video

Paul is Pegg and Frost's ode to more traditional alien films — complete with Seth Rogen as a little grey alien named Paul. Co-written by Pegg and Frost (and directed by Greg Mottola), Paul stars Pegg and Frost as two geeky science fiction fans who meet an alien and shelter it from the pursuing FBI. Though Paul doesn't really measure up to the Cornetto trilogy — largely considered the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost movies — it stands on its own as a hilarious road trip adventure with a sci-fi twist.

5 The World's End (2013)

Serving as the most recent collaboration between Pegg, Frost, and Wright, The World's End is the third and final entry in their iconic Cornetto trilogy. In many ways, the movie's primary theme mirrors the collaborative process between the three creatives, as it follows a group of aging, early 40-something men trying to recapture the fun and camaraderie of their youths (in the midst of an alien invasion). This heartfelt ode to the apocalypse is undoubtedly one of the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost movies.

4 Truth Seekers (2020)

  • Available on Prime Video

Released in October of 2020, Truth Seekers is the second creation of Pegg and Frost's production company Stolen Picture. Truth Seekers is a horror-comedy that follows Nick Frost's Gus Roberts, an internet broadband installer who investigates the paranormal in his spare time. Along for the ride is Simon Pegg, who plays Gus's boss, David. Every episode was produced and co-written by Pegg and Frost (alongside James Serafinowicz and Nat Saunders). Even though it was canceled after just one season, Truth Seekers ranks highly among the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost shows as a genuinely frightening but still laugh-out-loud comedy.

3 Hot Fuzz (2007)

  • Available on Cinemax

Hot Fuzz is the middle child of the Cornetto trilogy — and arguably the most famous. The story concerns Simon Pegg's Nicholas Angel, a tough, no-nonsense London cop who is transferred to the quaint and quiet village of Sandford. While there, he is partnered with Frost's bumbling and childish Danny Butterman. Easily counted among the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost movies, Hot Fuzz pulls off the impossible by parodying buddy cop movies, which in itself is already a sub-genre of comedy. At the same time, it's genuinely one of the greatest serious buddy cop stories of all time — with just the right amount of horror.

2 Shaun Of The Dead (2004)

  • Available for purchase on Prime Video

Shaun of the Dead is the first and strongest-reviewed entry in the Cornetto trilogy. Playing on numerous zombie movie tropes, Shaun of the Dead stars Pegg as Shaun, a young and rather unambitious man who tries sorting out his life in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. Frost plays his lazy best friend, Ed. This is the comedic drama that broke Pegg, Frost, and Wright into the mainstream. Apart from being the greatest Nick Frost and Simon Pegg movie, Shaun of the Dead may just be the best zombie movie of all time.

1 Spaced Seasons 1 and 2 (1999 - 2001)

  • Available on Tubi and Prime Video

Before Shaun of the Dead, there was Spaced. Serving as the earliest collaboration between Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright, Spaced is essentially a live-action cartoon in terms of tone and humor. The basic concept is that two strangers pretend to be a romantic couple so they can rent a "professional couples only" apartment. However, that's just the entry point to Spaced's unhinged wackiness, which includes outlandish plots, countless movie references, and the typical Wright-ian manic editing. Spaced is painfully short, running just two seasons and fourteen episodes. But Spaced ends in spectacular fashion, and it left its dedicated audience wanting more. Spaced remains well-remembered as the best Simon Pegg and Nick Frost collaboration ever.
