Below are the THEN and NOW shots of the filming locations used in Edgar Wright - Shaun of the Living Dead. The now shots are taken accordingly during our recent visit to the places (2007) while the then shots (2004) are the film grabs from the movie. This is a direct visual comparison of how the filming locations have changed over time. Some places and buildings are now totally unrecognizable due to massive development and area progress while some have undergone the opposite direction towards deterioration and decay. Some places, however, have stayed intact as they were, unaffected by the passage of weather and time.

The order below is the same order from the beginning to the end of the movie. If you can provide further information or help me locate the missing links, it will be greatly appreciated. These are all my personal observations and any form of constructive criticism or informative suggestion would be most welcome. Roly – Filming Locations Detectives

Opening credits

The supermarket

(Click on the (2004) film grabs for a better & larger image)

The above was filmed at - Asda, Park Royal Road, on the junction of Coronation Road, North Acton, NW 10. The manager of the Asda supermarket was extremely pleasant and had a great sense of humour. Some of the checkout girls were not so happy, when I took the photograph of the till section. The manager also told me some of the scenes from 'Doctor Who' had been shot at the store 'It's not everyday a Dalek comes past your window.'

We could not tell which part of the carpark was used in the filming, if you would like to submit a photograph of this location, or you have any information, please do not hesitate to contact us, we will give you full credit. Click here to go to the contact form
