AfDs for this article:

Only two references. As an article, fails WP:IPC (also, WP:OR, WP:V, WP:GNG). As a list it fails WP:NLIST. Relevant reading: WP:NOTTVTROPES. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 18:48, 23 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete. Lots of uncited original research. There's also a ton of uncited stuff in the "in popular culture" section at the referenced article.  ~XyNq tc 19:16, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete, completely unsourced and unverified, no reason for this to exist. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 19:17, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete While the main article could probably use a section on the film's legacy and influence to replace its current terrible "In Popular Culture" section, nothing from this spinout would be useful in preserving for such a section, being a largely unsourced list of mostly non-notable trivia.

 * Delete: this is overwhelmingly WP:OR. Many of the references are questionably accurate because they depend on the interpretation of editors. One of the sources is a disclaimer saying that the fictional work is not based on Dawn of the Daed? If we removed all the poorly sourced material, there would be nothing left.

 * Delete. Agree with others, it should be deleted. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 22:14, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Redirect and mention the most significant influences only on the film's page. Yuotort (talk) 21:50, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
