Leans Traditional
Primary
The film is a horror-comedy centered on a zombie apocalypse and a coming-of-age story. Its core conflict and the solution, which emphasizes practical skills, friendship, and personal growth, are largely apolitical, resulting in a neutral rating.

Secondary
The film features an incidental depiction of a gay character, Augie Foster, whose sexuality is briefly implied through a scene of attraction to a male stripper. This portrayal is neither central to the plot nor a source of significant positive affirmation or negative denigration, maintaining a neutral stance.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
