Superb fun/horror film

Rating: 10/10 (11 January 2010)

I am not actually a fan of horror films. One reviewer called Zombieland less scary than "Shaun" but I could not disagree more. I think the difference was much more violence and much more energetic directing of the action bits here than in "Shaun". In general there is some disturbingly brutal and visceral violence in Zombieland, whereas it was toned down in Shaun. That one was more a comedy in the midst of zombies, this one is much more a horror film with a lot of comedy. In short I find this one much scarier. Also funnier, which is because it is better written; i suspect if all the juicy "f" words were taken out of "Shaun" not much would be left. But nuff about Shaun. I think the opening credits - about 5 mins, are about the best I have seen and they already make it worth seeing Zombieland. Then the scene with the blond hottie turned zombie is also kick ass well directed and acted. The soundtrack is to crave for and I will definitely buy it. Emma Stone is amazing - a good actress and very hot in an interesting way. And the best of all - BM cameo, an absolute gem! I had a very good time thank you.
