Zombieland
Started & Finished: 10/11/09
Just a bunch of wholesome zombie fun. A funny script and solid acting kept me genuinely interested for the entire 80 minutes, despite some gimmicky tricks and a few cliched moments. There are plenty of nods to zombie lore of the past, with enough twists to keep it feeling fresh.
That being said, World: Let’s cool it with the zom-coms for the next couple decades. And possibly zombie movies in general. I’m not calling for a bullet in the head, but maybe two in the kneecaps to slow it down. The genre’s starting to get a little tiresome.
