These scenes evoke images of zombies in several ways. The people are all emotionless, deadened, and operating almost as if on primal reflexes. By lining them up side-by-side, the angle of the panning camera emphasizes the similarities between the workers (especially the women at the register and the men presumably waiting for the bus), reminiscent of the loss of individuality associated with zombies.Most of these people hold low-wage, undesirable, or otherwise dull jobs that require only machinelike skills; a shot of people trudging down the street in automatized unison features undistinctive street attire such as hoodies and baggy camouflage pants. These shots suggest that the film focuses on the zombification of the working class, and perhaps the force of zombification is the exploitation of low-wage labor.
