My idea for a swede is the film Shaun of the dead (Edgar Wright, 2004). Even though it is already a spoof of Dawn of the dead (Zack Snyder, 2004) it is still quite a funny and well known film, so the audience would be able to recognise quotes and references to the original film. Shaun of the dead made £1,603,410 opening weekend in the UK. Here is the trailer for Shaun of the dead...
I think that Shaun of the dead would be a good film to swede because it is not set anywhere glamorous so it would be easy to find local places or places around school to film it in. Another reason I think Sean of the dead would be a good choice is because it doesn't have any big Hollywood style effects. It has two main characters so if we couldn't get enough people to play a decent amount of the cast then we could have the two main characters and then other people cast as the zombies in it. In the film the characters are everyday people or zombies so everybody could just wear normal everyday clothes. The main members of the cast are...
Shaun, Ed, Liz, David and Dianne. Because this is only 5 main characters and they are in the majority of scenes it would be easy to find enough people in the class to play them. We would also need people to play zombies in the scenes as needed.

Shaun of the dead is a very quote-able film and i found it easy to find very recognisable scenes from the film that would be funny to recreate. This is an example of a popular scene from the film...
Another popular scene that could be recreated from the film is...
Both of these scenes would be good to choose because they are recognisable and would be funny to recreate. Neither of them use expensive or unusual props or scenery only household items or easily accessible local areas. We could make the swede funny instead of throwing items they use in the film to throw at the zombies we could throw other items that clearly wouldn't do any damage, for example paper. In the fence scene there we could show the person not actually jumping over and walking round it or some other take on jumping over it. Here are some links to more possible scene ideas...
