** For that matter, the zombies' arrival in town. [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar First, they see a billboard of a woman with money stuffed between her breasts and groan excitedly.]] But then they experience Culture Shock and get freaked out by the various stuff in town, gasping each time, such as a drunk couple stumbling out of a pub, a punk spray painting graffiti of a skull on a wall, a man eating a burger in his car and spraying ketchup over the windshield, and finally, a TV flipping through channels, first of a man using a machine gun, then a monster truck rally, a lipstick commercial, a nuclear explosion, a rock star concert, and lastly, ''a kids' show.'' Then, one of the zombies [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl screams in a high-pitched voice!]] Part of it makes sense: the zombies are Puritans and are shocked that this home they have started as a place without sin has sex, violence and corruption wherever they look.
* In a truly hilarious moment of GettingCrapPastTheRadar, at one point Alvin ''grabs [[HartmanHips Courtney's]] butt''.

* In the midst of a dark sequence at the beginning of the climax, as Norman is trying to convince Aggie of their similarities and she angrily counters that ''he's'' not ''DEAD'', there's something chuckle-worthy in how she follows that up (in a tone reminding us that whatever else she is, there's a part of her that is eternally an eleven-year-old girl) with, "And you're a ''boy''."
