The opening narration refers to Mrs. Featherstone’s household at Netherfield Park.
Never was this truth more plain than in the recent attacks at Netherfield Park in which an entire household was slaughtered by a hoard of the living dead during a whist party.
It happens off-screen after Darcy takes Mrs. Featherstone’s word that there is not one else the zombie could have infected and he leaves. (This is why it was empty until Bingley rents it. When Mrs. Bennet comes to Netherfield while Jane is sick she’s saying something in the background about their getting the zombie blood out of the marble.)
At the end they are at Rosings Park and it is not a whist party.
I thought at first that the ending was meant to be the last day because the four horsemen of the zombie apocalypse are riding out with Wickham as Mr. Collins described. But when I saw others took it as setting up a sequel I thought that must be right because it didn’t seem in keeping with the tone of the movie for everyone to die at the end. I agree they should have drawn their swords or something.
