    • Quotes

      Bill Murray: [dying] Is that how you say hello where you come from?

      Columbus: Oh, my God. Oh, my God, I can't believe I shot Bill Murray.

      Tallahassee: Mr. Murray?

      Bill Murray: I'm just Bill, I think, now.

      Tallahassee: Bill?

      Bill Murray: Yeah?

      Tallahassee: [pokes at Bill's wound] I don't think we're gonna be able to stitch this.

      Bill Murray: Ah. That's still tender.

      Tallahassee: You think you might pull through?

      Bill Murray: No.

      Columbus: If it means anything now, I am so sorry. It was just instinctive.

      Bill Murray: It was my bad. I was never a very good practical joker.

      Little Rock: So do you have any regrets?

      Bill Murray: "Garfield," maybe.

    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the credits, there is a scene between Bill Murray and Tallahassee. Tallahassee attempts to re-create a Carl Spackler (Bill Murray) scene from Caddyshack. Bill Murray then complements him by doing the scene correctly.
    • Alternate versions
      The DVD and Blu-ray releases feature 7 deleted scenes:
      • Ziploc Bags - Columbus narrates over a zombie attack scene that relates to his second rule about using Ziploc bags.
      • This Did Not Just Happen - Columbus delivers a short monologue about an anxiety attack after being attacked by a zombie.
      • Mom and Dad Would Have To Wait - Columbus narrates a scene where he explains about zombie attacks while cleaning up his room where he was attacked by one.
      • The Joke's On Them - After their car is driven away by Wichita and Little Rock, Tallahassee reveals to Columbus that he stole some ammunition without them noticing.
      • The Slow and The Weak - Wichita and Little Rock have a conversation while driving on a zombie-infested road.
      • Girls Play At Park - An additional scene where Wichita and Little Rock play at Pacific Playland before the zombies arrive.
      • You Always Think Of Something - A scene which switches back and forth between Wichita & Little Rock, who are stuck on the fairground, and Columbus and Tallahassee, who are driving to Pacific Playland.

    Actually quite fun
    I just was exiting the theater after seeing '9', which is also worth a look, when my friend and I were offered tickets to a preview screening of Zombieland, which began almost immediately. I had seen previews for this picture, but I'd say this exceeded my expectations, which isn't to say masterpiece, but it was certainly entertaining, and at about 90 minutes, didn't really overstay it's welcome.

    As you might expect for this genre, it's quite gory, so don't go expecting a light 'R' rating. But if you can handle some bloodshed, no, make that a substantial amount of bloodshed - but perhaps I should add in a comic environment - there's some pretty funny stuff here. Woody Harreleson and Jesse Eisenberg make an amusing odd couple and Emma Stone was fine for this material, although she and Abigale Breslin had slightly less to do.

    I'm certainly no expert on the horror genre or the zombie sub-genre, but I can say that this wasn't as scary as Shaun of the Dead, in fact not very scary at all, I may have jumped back just a tiny bit a few times; however I may have laughed more. However I'm sure it does make a difference that I saw 'Shaun' alone on DVD, while 'Zombieland' I watched in a theater full of people laughing, clapping and cheering.

    Let's face it, you know what's going to happen in this flick, but I'm happy to say, plot conventions and all, this delivers enough laughs so if you know what you're getting into I doubt you'll regret laying down the price of admission for this sucker. Should you see it, see it opening night - if I haven't made it clear enough already, this is the kind of movie where the more enthusiastic people in the theater, the more fun it will be. And to end on a very positive note, 'Zombieland' does feature what just might go down in history as the best celebrity cameo of all time.
