deconstruct

Zombies have multiple cultural symbolic meanings, and different works have different meanings. In "Shaun of Zombies", it should symbolize a state of life-modern people who follow the rules and lose their pursuits under the pressure of work and life, in short , is the "de-individualization" of modern society. What is deconstructed is that the "hero" who resists the zombies in the movie is also depersonalized, and his body is full of decadence, and even in the most story-like love, he is also a mediocre. Therefore, "Shaun of Zombies" only has deconstruction, not construction.

Shaun of the Dead quotes

  • Ed: See? You don't need Liz to have a good time.

    Shaun: Oh, don't, man.

    Ed: No! Go ahead, look at me. Can I just say one more thing? I'm not gonna say, you know, there's plenty more fish in the sea. I'm not going to say if you love her, let her go. And I'm not going to bombard you with clichés. But what I will say is this?

    [chuckling]

    Ed: It's not the end of the world.

  • Shaun: As Bertrand Russell once said, "The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation." I think we can all appreciate the relevance of that now.

    Liz: Was that on a beer mat?

    Shaun: Yeah, it was Guinness Extra Cold.

    Liz: I won't say anything.

    Shaun: Thanks.
