"The First Time I Let A Girl Into My Life, And She Tries To Eat Me!"...

Rating: 9/10 (7 May 2019)

ZOMBIELAND gets two things absolutely right: #1- the whole post-apocalyptic world gone mad, full of gore-drenched, gut-slinging, ravenous zombie maniacs of doom. #2- The horror / humor balance. Jesse Eisenberg is perfect as the nerd-turned-hero, Columbus. Woody Herrelson plays the Twinkie-obsessed-good-old-boy-turned-zombie-destroyer, Tallahassee w/ hilarious, gleeful abandon! Annnnd, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin make a formidable pair as the clever sisters Wichita and Little Rock. These survivors must band together to face the ever-hungry multitude of living dead. Oh, and of course, there's Bill Murray, in one of the best cameo appearances ever, playing... er, Bill Murray w/ his usual... Bill Murray-ness! This is pedal-to-the-floor, all-guns-blazing, rip-roaring, zombie entertainment from start to finish!... P.S.- The music soundtrack is great! Especially the use of Metallica's "For Whom The Bell Tolls" at the beginning! Oh yeah!...
