Plot Holes: What Happened to Shaun When He Ran Off?

This is the first time I've ever seen a movie make an effort like this to clear up so-called plot holes in the story. The plot holes here are really not plot holes at all, but strike me instead as just being some things that they wanted to tell a little more about, probably because they had such a good time making the movie. We don't need to know exact details of what happened when Shaun led the zombies away, and it's reasonable to assume that Dianne was killed by the zombies after she went after David, who was dismembered before our eyes. How Ed became a zombie-pet for Shaun is indeed curious, but it strikes me more as one last joke than an important plot point.

Nevertheless, these short animated comic-book style stories serve as a fun supplement to the rest of the movie, and I hope to see other movies take this example in the future. Simon Pegg narrates with the same comedic tone as the movie, mentioning how sometimes he had to sit and wait for the slow-moving zombies to catch up with him, so he could continue to lead them away from the Winchester. Nice work!

My gosh, this is funny. One of the extras on the DVD for Shaun of the Dead, and specifically, it's one of the three supposed plot holes that the film itself leaves open, being explained away. The main character by voice over tells us exactly what happened in the situation in question(which you should not know about if you haven't already watched the movie, and if you have, you'll figure out what it is), as comic strip graphics(done by Edgar Wright, the multi-talent) depicts it. This is hilarious and biting, pun intended, and, as should be no surprise, the 43 seconds that this has a running time of goes by immensely quickly. The whole thing is set to The Gonk, and the drawing style is cool and not excessively flashy. I agree with one of the other reviewers, that these were arguably not necessary, but that the people had so such a good time making the flick and thus made these, as well. What is told in these is in the FAQ for the title, as well, if you can't catch these anywhere. As opposed to the picture, there is no strong language(with one possible exception) or violence and gore in this. I recommend this to any and all fans. 8/10
