I'm Going To Zombieland

The makers of Zombieland followed the important rule of releasing a Halloween/Scary themed movie several weeks before Halloween so that people will see it prior to being burnt out on all things Halloween related.  I decided to take full advantage of the opportunity as we near the mid-way point of October.

Narrated by Adventureland star Jessie Eisenberg's character Columbus, Zombieland is really a Woody Harrelson tour de force.  It tells the story of survivors of a virus induced Zombie outbreak in the USA and their quest to reach "the place where there are no zombies."  That place is different for each character as everyone has heard different information.

Zombieland is much like Shaun of the Dead and the original Dawn of the Dead.  Dark humor reigns.  The film clocks in at a relatively brisk 88 minutes.  And that is just fine.  It blasts off from the get go and never lets up.

Go see Zombieland before Halloween.  I give it Four Billys.
