Coming of Age in the Apocalypse: Shaun of the Dead

Welcome Readers,

Before getting into today’s post I wanted to make sure a few things are clear. This post presumes that you have watched Edgar Wright’s Shaun of the Dead. There will be SPOILERS throughout the post, and I recommend you watch the film as it is one of the best comedies ever made.

The other thing is that this will be a mixture of plot analysis and psychological criticism, presuming the character of Shaun as viewpoint for many of the films scenes and camera views. I feel the post details how and why pretty well.

Now, with that said, we can begin.
