* WordOfGod: According to [[https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/life-after-beth/32322/life-after-beth-director-jeff-baena-interview his interview for Den Of Geek]], Jeff Baena decided to make the main characters Jewish because intact bodies make more sense as zombies (especially, in this case, zombies that themselves are not aware of being zombies) and Jewish people don't do autopsies.
* However, in spite of what Baena says, Beth does appear to have been stitched up after an autopsy. When Beth is trying to have sex with Zach in the attic after he sneaks in, she takes off her dress for the first time, and Zach freaks out, seeing the stitching, although it is a blink-and-you'll-miss it moment. Similarly, Zach later runs into a naked female zombie, who likewise shows to have been stitched up after having been cut open in a fashion typical for autopsies (a Y-shaped incision). As for not using embalming, which Baena also mentions, this appears to be subverted by the return of Zach's grandfather, and even the previous owners of the Orfmans' house, who seem a bit worse-for-wear than zombies who died recently, with a greenish tint to their skin, but otherwise don't appear decayed. On an interesting note, this also appears to show that the mental deterioration zombies display seems to depend more on how much time has passed since their return, and not on how long ago they died, i.e. the decay of their brains.
