Well, I was fortunate enough to score passes to a special screening of "ZOMBIELAND" tonight.
I have to admit, I originally had no desire to see this film...
...but hey, it's FREE so why not?
I'm glad I went.
I was pleasantly suprised
Now, I'm not a big "gore" fan, and the opening credits had PLENTY of it!
Slow-motion shots of zombies eating flesh, chasing folks, and even a naked saggy tittied bloody zombie...in slow-mo...
This was when I was thinking to myself, "Yep, another movie I'll be leaving halfway through..."
Fortunately, the opening wasn't reflective of the rest of the movie.
Sure, there was your mandatory zombie-brain exploding every now and then, but what I was TRULY shocked about this movie was it's humor...
Woody Harrelson and the young kid playing the lead did an OUTSATANDING job.
And I have to say bravo to the writers, I LOVE a quotable movie, and this fits the bill!!!
I don't want to give away anything, so I'll keep my mouth shut (though look for the Twinkies running joke and a suprise appearance by a hillarious Hollywood legend....*snickers*)
...
Bottom line: If you're looking for a typical zombie-action flick, this isn't really it.
But if you're looking forward to laughing your ass off during a "zombie apocalypse", this IS the flick!!!
*btw, the people that were able to draw this advance screening to Kent said they're gonna try to do this more often. If so, I hope to bring you guys more advance movie Jaiviews*
