Trivia
When asked by an interviewer why they chose to have slow moving zombies instead of running zombies, Simon Pegg simply replied, “Because death is not an energy drink.
Shaun and Ed’s friendship is based on Simon Pegg’s and Nick Frost’s when they shared a flat together.
All of the newsreaders and television presenters are real people portraying themselves.
Almost all bit-part characters can be seen later in this movie as zombies.
According to Edgar Wright, Cornettos appear in this movie is because he once ate a Cornetto to get over a hangover, and thought it would be funny if Ed did the same after a night of drinking.
Although sporadically hinted at, the cause of the zombie invasion is never properly explained. When people are about to, they get interrupted by something.
