87. Ed
Shaun of the Dead
I've already wrote a good amount about Ed previously in this blog and it said pretty much everything needed to be said. So here it is again:
Ed is a crass human being. He is a rude, obnoxnious, lazy, foul-mouthed prick who barely takes a real zombie invasion seriously. But he is one of the most loyal friends you could ever have.
Ed is easily the best character in "Shaun of the Dead," which is why its genuinely sad to see him go. As one of the last three survivors of the Winchester invasion, Ed aids in fighting off zombies until he gets bitten himself.
Favoring to kill a few more zombies than to commit suicide with his last few shotgun shells, Ed used the corpse of a rather large undead bloke to shield himself from the zombies until he passed away peacefully. Shaun eventually found him and, as he couldn't bring himself to kill his old friend, lured him to the shed where is chained up, playing video games, just like old times.
Defining moment: His touching (seemingly) final goodbye to Shaun. Lovingly undercut by a fart joke.
