Characters/Actors: Columbus (Jessie Eisenberg), Tallahassee (Woody "Cheers" Harrelson), Wichita (Emma Stone), Abigail "Little Miss Sunshine" Breslin Directed by: Ruben Fleishcher
Tongue in cheek horror about a zombie- infested America in which the four or so remaining humans end up traveling together and kill as many flesh-eating zombies as they possibly can. More funny than scary. Columbus, a twenty-something hypochondriac with irritable bowel syndrome is hilarious as an unlikely survivor in a post-apocalyptic world with his meticulous rules for survival. Tallahassee, a cowboy on the lookout for the last Hostess Twinkies on the planet, is just the opposite. His one area of expertise is "killing zombies" in all kinds of ingenious ways. Columbus and Tallahassee meet and end up traveling together, even though Columbus gets on Tallahassee's nerves. In their travels, they meet a pair of devious girls, who scam them several times. Eventually, they all team up as perhaps the last four living people in America, if not the world. There is a surprise cameo in the film which I won't give away. This was one of the funnier movies I have seen this year.
