3 of the 8 primary characters in 'Diary of the Dead' are women. Being a horror film and all, many of the scenes show members of the group talking to/screaming at one another/no one in particular as they try to escape from zombies. However, there is one scene in which two women exchange about four lines of dialogue, as they work together to kill a (female) zombie. I'm fairly certain that this is the *only* example of a scene that meets the qualifications of the Bechdel Test, while I can think of many more that pass the reverse Bechdel.
