As the main characters huddle around Shaun holding the rifle in the Winchester as the first wave of zombies start to flow in, Shaun says "get behind me! Get behind me!" just like Han Solo in Star Wars, just as storm troopers are breaking though the doors of the cell block on the Death Star.

And Tis but a scratch

People laugh at me when I say that this is my favorite movie. But it is. It's a rarified quality of filmmaking. It works on so many levels. On one hand, it's possible to enjoy it without knowing any of the references. On the other hand, the fact that pretty much every scene in the film contains some sort of reference while still forming a cohesive story is almost unbelievable. Think about most movies that try to reference and parody pop culture: they're usually complete trash, with the references taking the place of storytelling while mocking their source materials. In SotD, Wright offers a really solid, and sometimes even emotionally powerful narrative while also weaving in hundreds of references (many more than this video identifies) to other films. That shows how much Wright and Pegg genuinely love the pop culture they reference in this film.

I agree that it could be considered a parody. But I really feel like this one was so much more than just a parody. I mean there's obvious moments that are clearly parody of something that came before. But parody to me seems to be more like making fun of something. And while Shaun of the Dead absolutely pokes fun at many zombie films and for sure definitely makes references to other zombie films especially Romero but I've always seen Shaun of the Dead as a standalone comedy about zombies that pays more homage to zombie films that came before. I think it's more than a parody. Other than that this video is awesome. Actually even including that the videos awesome but I digress, Edgar Wright's movies are just packed full of small little details like this and I freaking love it so thank you for pointing out even more that I'd never noticed myself
