SHAUN OF THE DEAD
...
...
Things we liked (ignoring the bar scene):
- Everyone looking like zombies however they're just doing their boring jobs
- When a car would go past and it would cut into next shot
- The continuous panning from left to right
- The use of titles such as the Shaun of the Dead on the floor
- The narrative enigma of Shaun panning from feet to head and looks like a zombie
- The quick shots of parts of his morning routine
ZOMBIELAND
...
...
Things we liked:
- The video recorder effect
- Point of view shot with the first zombie
- The visuals of Earth (don't know if we could do that)
- The use of titles for the rules
- The funny list of rules
- The slo mo title sequence (however we thought it was too long)
- The moving titles in the title sequence
WARM BODIES
...
...
Things we liked:
- The narrative enigma of the main character then revealing he is a zombie
- The set design
- The internal monologue
- Flashbacks
- Scenes going on behind character
- The transition back to how it was before and then back to now

This is an especially useful post, with some good denotation + clear indication of specific influences. However, such references are often much more useful as short (to avoid copyright issues) clips/gifs/screenshots, and compiling such material will make the Eval MUCH easier too. This post will benefit from an update once you’ve more comprehensively completed conventions research/blogging; you should make use of the range of DVDs ordered, including that your group specifically requested.
