In the movie, when Dianne runs out of the Winchester she is calling her boyfriend's name. Because we just saw him torn to pieces by the zombies (and because Dianne is beating zombies with his severed leg) it's reasonable to assume that she can't save him and is instead making an insane rush against his killers, soon to meet her own similarly gruesome fate.
Instead of simply illustrating Dianne's grisly fate, this one completely changes what we would otherwise expect, going in a totally different direction that amazingly makes perfect sense (or as much sense as can be made in your typical zombie movie), while at the same time maintaining the same tongue-in-cheek tone of the rest of the movie. It's narrated by Dianne, of course, and has a characteristically classic joke at the end.

This is one of the many(and sadly, mostly terribly short) extras on the DVD for Shaun of the Dead, and more specifically, it's the second of the three supposed plot holes that the film itself leaves open, being explained away. In a voice over, Dianne tells us exactly what happened in the situation in question(which you should not know about if you haven't already watched the movie, and if you have, you'll figure out what it is), as comic strip graphics(done by Edgar Wright, the multi-talent) depicts it, in a nifty drawing style that isn't too extravagant. This is hilarious and biting, pun intended, and, as should be no surprise, the 1 minute and 13 seconds that this has a running time of(placing this squarely in the middle, as far as what the longest one is) goes by immensely quickly. The whole thing is set to The Gonk. All that is told in these is in the FAQ for the title, as well, if you can't catch these anywhere. As opposed to the picture, there is no strong language. There is violence, gore and disturbing content in this. I recommend this to any and all fans. 8/10
