According to the author, the original text of the novel was well-suited for use as a zombie horror story: Grahame-Smith began with the original text of Austen's novel, adding zombie and ninja elements while developing an overall plot line for the new material "you kill somebody off in Chapter 7, it has repercussions in Chapter 56". For whatever reason, it just struck me as the most brilliant thing I'd ever heard. called me one day, out of the blue, very excitedly, and he said, "All I have is this title, and I can't stop thinking about this title."

The second scene is in a more sexual context there is a woman bouncing (clearly having sexual intercourse) on a man in a bathtub. It only lasts for about 4 seconds, and is in a non - sexual context, but it is still better for older teens. The first is a close - up shot of a dead, topless woman. I think it's better for the older 15 year old range because of two scenes near the beginning depicting nudity.
