Zombie kill seemed like a little fun play due to “Tallahassee” wondering if he got the kill. It was a little aside and, while I see your point, I dug the little side trip. It showed that other folks were having a little fun with the end of the world as well. Again, ZKOTW was really looked at as a weekly zombie kill in the TV show. Every week would have another nutty kill featured.

Fun stuff! Thanks for reading the review and playing along! Means a lot.

I dug the fact that in this “new” world characters became anonymous, their identity marked by where they are going, rather than where they were from, for a variety of reasons, but I think one subtext was that no-one wanted to look back and remember all that they had lost. Again, “subtext”; I think this would be something only zombienerds would key on, which is why, I think, the director and writer hint at it, but don’t beat us over the head with the idea.

The only thing I raised an eyebrow at, that I can mention without dropping a spoiler, was the Zombie Kill Of The Week piano lady. Great gag, cute, and funny, but my Movie Pacing Button got pressed. This scene really had nothing to do with the rest of the film or the other protagonists, unless they had thrown more ZKOTWs in I suppose (she was the only one, right? Personally, if they were going to do this, a few more would have been fun. Ah….I smell DVD extras!). But again, we came for fun, not hardboiled, 100% logic. Besides, since it was a 5 second throw away gag, it didn’t derail the film.
