While people have called Karl Hardman's performance "Amateurish", I think He's pretty convincing. The look of total horror on his face as the escape attempt goes south is extremely convincing as well as his stammering about the fuse.
My wife likes it (not as much as I do) and while She could see both sides; staying upstairs to access the situation, but so many areas to watch VS staying in the cellar which would be safer, but no idea of what's going on. Her thought was go upstairs, bring some stuff and could always knock the zombies down the steps...You might even end up with a barricade of them preventing any others from reaching You and be able to check outside for help.

Never gave it a lot of thought... but now that you mention it... going upstairs would be a good idea if they tore up the steps/staircase. The zombies wouldn't be able get to the second floor then.
They could use the wood from the steps to board up the windows. They could pull each other up, use a rope, or use a ladder that they could pull upstairs when they were all up there. Just kinda depends what was in the house.
