In a world overrun by hungry members of the undead community, a nerdy student (Jesse Eisenberg) hooks up with the cowboy-hatted Twinkie-loving, zombie-slaying redneck good ol’ boy Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson). They carry on heading west even after their van is pilfered by sisters Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin), who dream of visiting Hollywood and the reputedly zombie-free Playland adventure park. The smart and funny Zombieland tries very hard indeed not to be Shaun of the Dead and cannily doesn’t go overboard on the sort of zombie-splatting gore, preferring to play up smart writing, underplayed character comedy and a fundamental sweetness that is ultimately disarming.
It’s back on screen in spooky ol’ Redcliffe Caves as part of this year’s Horror in the Caves Halloween warm-up weekend, courtesy of Bristol Film Festival. Go here for ticket details.
