Shaun of the Dead quotes

  • Barbara: [over the phone] Some men tried to get into the house.

    Shaun: Well are they still there?

    Barbara: [over the phone] I'm not sure, we've shut the curtains.

    Shaun: Did you try the police?

    Barbara: [over the phone] Well I thought about it.

    Shaun: Are you OK? Did they hurt you?

    Barbara: [over the phone] No I'm fine. I'm fine.

    Shaun: Mum...

    Barbara: [over the phone] Well they were a bit... bitey.

    Shaun: [concerned] Mum, have you been bitten?

    Barbara: [over the phone] No... But Philip has.

    Shaun: [calmly] Oh, OK.

    Ed: Has she been bitten?

    Shaun: [to Ed] No, Philip has.

    Ed: [calmly] Oh, OK.

    Shaun: Listen, Mum, what sort of state is he in?

    Barbara: [over the phone] Oh, he's fine. Bit under the weather.

    Shaun: I see.

    Ed: What's the deal?

    Shaun: [to Ed] We may have to kill my step-dad.

  • Ed: We're coming to get you, Barbara!
