In case you didn't know, Zombieland opens Friday.
It stars Woody Harrelson (never forget Kingpin) and Jesse Eisenberg (admit it, you loved Adventureland). Also Bill Murray is in it somewhere, so you know it's going to be good.
I'm going to propose a new system for critiquing zombie films, which I would like you to print out and take with you to Zombieland. It's so easy a zombie could do it, simply place a check next to the question if it's yes, tally your checks at the end.
1. Were the zombies actually Undead? __
2. Did the gore gross you out or make you yelp with joy? __
3. Did the characters fight amongst eachother? __
4. Did anyone have trouble executing a zombie for sentimental reasons? __
5. Did it make you wish even more that zombies were real? __
6. Was Bill Murray in it? __
Okay, so I added that last one. This checklist is, of course, the bare bones of a good zombie movie, but if a movie lacks anyone of the first five, something's wrong. Hopefully we can give Zombieland six brains out of five.
