What a terrific premise for a game!

On one side, a seemingly unstoppable horde of lumbering, brain-dead, flesh-eating corpses, and on the other, an army comprised of cute, anthropomorphic flowers and plants. 

Created by PopCap Games, Plants Vs. Zombies is an action-strategy PC game (essentially a tower defense game) which pits players against a horde of whimsically designed undead assailants: normal, garden-variety Zombies (pun intended), Conehead Zombies, the even tougher to kill Buckethead Zombies, Screen Door Zombies, even Pole Vaulting Zombies!  There are 26 types of Zombies in all.

Your backyard arsenal of  plant protectors includes mutant Peashooters, exploding Potato Mines, and Venus Zombietrap Chompers.  Gamers can unlock a total of 42 plants with which to combat the armies of undead traisping across the front lawn.

Here’s the official trailer (check it out; it’s a short clip with a few fun surprises at the end):
