My spoiler free review of ZOMBIELAND
It's AWESOME, go see it.
In fact is its so AWESOME for the next month I'll be attempting to use Woody Harrelson's character's catch phrase "Time to nut up, or shut up" as often as I can when I post.
For those overseas readers who think Australia is some tropical paradise I would reveal as well as having some of the most venomous spiders, snakes and jellyfish in the world we also have to wait until 3 DECEMBER to see this excellent training film.
In other Zombie media news the boys and girls over at Dreadcentral report that AMC is to get one of my favorite we_don't_spare_on_the_despair directors Frank Darabont of the movie 'The Mist' to write and produce a screen version of Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead. A excellent comix about life after the Zombie Apocalypse. It's not just the zombie slayage I come for but for the conversations, like this one.
But if you though McCarthy's The Road was bleak.. then this may not be for you.

Totally not gonna watch the trailer man, sorry. Don't wanna know NOTHING about it. But from what I gather it deserves a place along side Shawn of The Dead, 30 Days of Night (not Zombie I know, but there was some solid survival techniques), 300 (just cause that was Sparta), and Rambo (2008).
ReplyDeleteI saw it last Night!!! Freakin awesome! It was every bit as good as Shaun of The Dead...maybe better. I laughed my fool head off and the surprise cameo was amazing.
ReplyDeleteSo good, I'm going again. The gore was spectacular and you're right about the "nut up or shut up", I will do the same.
I didn't think it was possible to put a new twist on the subject but the director did an amazing job of keeping it fresh.
LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Btw, I going as "Angela" from "Night of the Demons" for Halloween this year. Thought you'd dig that.

ReplyDeleteI saw it the night it came out with Amanda, and it definitely lived up to the hype. It was hilarious! As the credits rolled down the screen I said to Amanda, "Now this movie right here, if Barnesm were to ever write a zombie movie, this is what it would be."
ReplyDeleteI was hoping you'd post a review about it!
Moko,
ReplyDeleteFair enough. Some movies these days if you see the trailer you have seen all the best bits. But not ZOMBIELAND.

You will so rock as Angela, I assume more the 2009 version rather than the 1988 version.

Great to hear you and Ms Amanda enjoyed it. Its the sort of zombie movie I WISH I could right.
Definitely hangin' for this one!
ReplyDeleteNo, sir. This movie should be honored by your endorsement.
ReplyDeleteWait ... you saw it but it won't be released there until Dec.?
ReplyDeleteI saw it this weekend ... it completely and utterly rocked. The cameos were hilarious.
Woody Harrelson is a god.
