=== This film contains examples of: ===
 
* [[The Alleged Car]]: - Banksy's GMC van. Summed up by the AAA guy as a "Fucking Piece of Shit!"
* [[Bloody Handprint]]: - A couple are shown after the boys arrive to Moodley, and one leads Mikey to discover the first of the Zom-birds.
Line 14 ⟶ 13:
* [[Eye Scream]]: - When the Jockey Zombird gets her left eye replaced by a golf ball, courtesy of neil.
* [[Fan Service]]: - Neil's one night stand at the beginning. Also the bartender with the rather large... Ahem... [[Unusual Euphemism|shot glasses]].
* [[Fingore]]: - One of the Zombirds has a particular taste for fingers and has a birthday cake with several on it in place of candles. She also cuts off one of {{spoiler|Neil's}} and licks icing off of it.
* [[Gainaxing]]: - Used on a rather robust and pissed off Zombird. Several times. Definitely a case of [[Fan Disservice]] as well.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: - [[Doctor Who|Mickey]], [[Harry Potter|Stan Shunpike]] and [[Grand Theft Auto Vice City|Kent Paul]].
** Not to mention Neil's one night stand is one of the stars of ''[[The Real Hustle]]''.
* [[Improbable Aiming Skills]]: - Patrick managing to hit the Zombirds with golfballsgolf balls from the billboard. Just to give you an idea, he's hopping on one foot, belting them with a short metal pole and still conking them on the head from 100+ yards away.
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: - All of the men. Golf clubs, golf balls, water pistols filled with remote control car fuel and a garden gnome at one point.
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]: - Neil naming the virus "Bird Flu".
* [[Jerkass]]: - Neil, hands down.
* [[Spot of Tea]]: When the men get into the house, they all gather around to discuss what's happening. One of them returns from locking the door and mentions the kettle is on. Afterward, a fight breaks out, only to be stopped by the same man screaming and pounding on the wall for attention. He felt the need to report, "The kettle's boiling."
* [[Not Using the Z Word]]: - The Zombirds are only referred to as such in the credits, and the only time the word 'Zombie' is mentioned is at the beginning, when Matt is arguing with a customer at his Comic book shop.
* [[Our Zombies Are Different]]: - They're not really zombies for one. The women are all still alive, but infected with a virus that makes them psychotic, violent and gives them a [[Under StatmentUnderstatement|strong disliking of men.]] They also mutate after a certain amount of time, making them smarter, stronger and weirder.
