Zombieland (Blu-ray)

This was a very good zombie film proof that horror films actually can be quite funny.

It has been well thought out. The acting along with the somewhat witty dialogue and overall notion in the zombie tradition makes Zombieland in my opinion one of the best horror-comedies of all time.

Recommend 5/5!!

One of the most fun films of 2009, very funny and highly entertaining! This is without doubt one of the best horror-zombie-comedies ever made, the cast was pretty cool, Woody Harrelson was funny it's probably his best role in years! The dialogue was very good and well formulated. There are a couple of interesting cameos too from Amber Heard and Bill Murray. Great fun all-round with a string of mishap adventures in a world overrun by the living dead, some cool gore thrown in too. Worth a watch for sure!

Based on the game, Left 4 Dead, this is a fun zombie film. They changed it a fair bit, but it's still packed with little gems from the game, and you even get to see your favourite weapons, such as the Benelli M104. It's not the best zombie movie, by far, but its great entertainment and is really a must for L4D fans.

Best Zombie comedy for a long time...if you thought Shaun of the Dead was good, then this is a must have - easily twice as funny

Nut up or Shut up

While many call Zombieland a Shaun of the Dead knock-off, I believe this is not the case. While they are both zom-coms, which, I will admit, is a very rarely used genre, the similarities end there.

Shaun of the Dead is actively a spoof of zombie films, poking fun at zombie apocalypses while keeping the action silly and slapstick. Zombieland on the other hand, often has both poignant and serious scenes.

Zombieland has a fantastic cast - the very likable Jesse Eisenberg shines as usual, and his friendships with the 3 other survivors are very genuine. Woody Harrelson is perfectly cast, as is Emma Stone as the beautiful, mysterious Wichita.

Overall, while this may have come after Shaun of the Dead, it does not try to copy in any way. Although not as funny as Shaun, because of its likable cast and brilliantly shot action scenes, Zombieland is the film I find myself coming back to when in the mood for a Zombie comedy.
