Trivia: Trampolining over a garden fence to save someone from a marauding zombie? Looks like someone else played a lot of "Zombies Ate My Neighbours" as a kid, which features exactly that.

Trivia: In one scene where Shaun and Pete are arguing in the kitchen, if you look over Shaun's shoulder you can just about see the ubiquitous phrase "Fried Gold." written on the fridge's message board.

Trivia: The (fictional) supermarket chain that the zombiefied Mary and Noel work for is called "LANDIS" (you can see it on their name badges). This is a nod to director John Landis: Simon Pegg has mentioned in interviews that Landis' An American Werewolf in London was an influence on this film. It's also very similar to "Londis" - a chain of shops in the UK.
