Mommy? Daddy? Are We Really Going To ZOMBIELAND? No, honeychild - we're just watching the trailer right now!
Hey folks, Harry here - back from VooDoo land where the Expendables are kicking much ass - and while gearing up to finish my epic report - I saw this trailer for ZOMBIELAND!!! And ya know - I'm generally a sucker for Zombies. I know - I know... enough with the zombies and the vampires... But I'm not sure which supernatural thing you're hankering for... Werewolves? Aliens? Fishpeople? Ghosts? Are maybe you're hankering for the first honest to goodness Girafficorn horror flick. But enough about Yoko and I's development process. But ya know... I like the classic Zombies as much as everyone... but I am looking forward to someone doing the GHOUL thing. But isn't that just another name for Zombie? I mean, technically aren't vampires Zombies? And Frankenstein? And the Mummy? Anyway, this trailer looks like a lot of fun - maybe not the gazillion dollar fun of 2012, but a good amount of fun, right?
Check out ZOMBIELAND here!

Neither is Frankenstein. Or the Mummy.
-
Vampires are reliant on blood, not flesh. Vampires are also intelligent rather than running on instinct, frequently gothy and frequently troubled and brooding. Zombies are none of these things.
The Mummy would be the closest, but even then he doesn't feed on a person he just kills them to satisfy a curse or some such.
Dumbass! -
Harry will give THE EXPENDABLES a glowing review no matter what.
-
...are too zombies! Didn't your mother ever show you From Dusk Till Dawn?
-
braaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaainsssss
-
undead and reanimated. personally i can't wait for another underwater horror story, but this looks it could be fun though.

Instead of seeing this, I'll just re-watch Shaun of the Dead
by willferret
And will someone please make World War Z already! That will be the Zombie movie to end all zombie movies.

JESUS
-
When are we going to have a movie where Lichs overrun humanity?
-
...in I AM LEGEND aka THE LAST MAN ON DA EARF
-
... "a hunk of cheese". Remember that one? Anyway, decent trailer. Looks like it could be fun.
-
...the Zombie flicks are getting better...now all someone has to do is wise up and option/make Joe Lansdale's ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE CADILLAC DESERT WITH DEAD FOLK. --G
-
The books have everything from gay vampire sex to wereanimal gangbang change sex.
They deserve a good R or NC17 movie version. -
My man! Tell 'em to get the fuck on that movie right now and quit wasting time!
-
"A hankering for a hunk a...
a slab, a slice, a chuck a...
a hankering for a hunk a cheese."
Yup. I remember. -
while Shaun of the Dead is a classic, surely the world of cinema is big enough for two romzomcoms...
-
I mean, when's the last time you saw someone saving against Paralyzation, Poison, or Death Magic after a Zombie hit? LOL. You must really be embarrassed Harry. It's ok if you don't post a retraction though.
Bring on Fishpeople! Poster needs to be the silhouette of a tree full of fish. -
...is the greatest thing I saw in trailer. DALE!!!!!
-
Awesome short story. I actually thought this movie was going to be a rip of that until I watched this trailer.
-
Well done.
-
...Woody's character is named after my hometown.
-
Just saying.
-
oh yes.
-
Longin' for a lump of
A glob, a wad, a blob of
Longin' for a lump of
Lard! -
Anytime people mention liches or saving throws vs. Paralyzation, Poison or Death Magic is a good TB.
-
...the thing that turned into a kindly little old lady in order to trick and kill Kolchak? And btw... why can't we get a Nightstalker movie?
-
Now thats inspired. Plus, is it just me or is Emma Stone getting cuter?
-
This trailer was entertaining and makes me want to see the movie. I like the omniscient Hitchhiker's Guide style narration as well, heh.
-
I went there looking for something else. They filmed there the day before. I didn't know it was this movie...
-
This trailer just made my day. It'll do until World War Z
-
right on
-
crab people.

SHUT YOUR FRAKKING MOUTH!
for all that we know, frank spotnitz and stuart townsend might be reading this talkback.
and until scientists decide to stop trying to split the universe in half and come up with a way to put all the technology we have to good use by cloning Darren McGavin, a big "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" to tv or big screen night stalker! -
I'm in.
-
is that these characters are going to kick ass & make us fall in love with them - but you just know that towards the end of the film, one or more will get bitten and turn into the living dead. i sometimes wish these zombie films would let all our hero's/heroine's survive. as unrealistic or undramatic as that is, i'd like to see it just once!
otherwise, this film looks incredible, and like a perfect addition to the zed film library. -
Great trailer song. Could be the best use of it since it was played in Better Off Dead while John Cusak created the claymation frankenburger. I wonder what Savage Steve Holland is doing now.
-
For fucks sake Harry.....its a great trailer and im stoked for it, but damm man, I can barely read your crappy writing. Between the typos and rambling non-sequitors, who the fuck can make sense of it! Oh, one more thing, you might wanna tone down your homo-erotic tweets on your twitter page....its seriously disturbing and it makes me want to throw up. Are'nt you supposed to be married?
-
Cthulu! Deep ones! More Dagon movies!
-
Looks like a Shaun Rip Off, minus the humor and brilliant execution!
We have seen this already, only WAAAAYY BETTER!
Snooze! -

THey had me at Van Halen - and the zombie kill of the week.
by juansanchez
-
Bury Spotnick and Townsend in a hole in the friggin' desert! I'm sure there is an actor out there that could star in a Nightstalker set in the funky early 70's that would make McGavin proud. Pure dude's probably still spinning in his grave at turbo velocities after that abortion of a TV show.
-
I am so there.
-
I am so there.
-
I won't hold high expectations for this, maybe I'll be surprised. I actually really liked Undead, but people drop excessive amounts of shit on it. $800,000 budget, you can't do much better.

Looks like it could be a fun enough movie
by spifftacular squirrel girl
It's even funner if you imagine that Woody's character is the same part he played in "Natural Born Killers".
I also got a little bit of a "Shaun of the Dead" vibe from the trailer but I suppose you can almost consider "Shaun" to be a Romero spin-off and "Zombieland" to be a Zach Synder spin-off (aka running zombies). -
yes. there are couple of actors who could do him justice.
problem is, if it's greenlight in these days it would most certainly be either
a) a dumb summer comedy starring stiller/farrel as kolchak and jack black as vincenzo, with saving grace by having william h. macey as ron updyke, or
b) stephen sommers/mcG abortion summer action flick with cool looking monsters and killer editing that no one can keep up with. without any plot or tension. oh, and with hugh jackman as carl [/insert random dr. cox hugh jackman rant].
so, I think we can all agree that it's best to keep the hollywood the fuck away from night stalker, and enjoy our DVDs.
/inserts DVD, starts whistling intro to the theme song -
turns out, you do need to sleep every now and then...
-
because they all suck
-
I grew up in western PA and every boy wanted to be in a Romero movie. I love all things zombie, from Synder´s movie to World War Z. I got a little precum in my pants from watching that trailer.
-
there is no way in hell that the massivness of those stories can be pressed into a 4 hour moive, let alone a 90 minute cop out.
I would love to see it, but they would have to leave so much out to make it work because it is nothing more that a hundred short stories. -
...it was a vampire that created the zombie outbreak. Check it out (you can read the entire comic online for free): lastblood.net
-
and this trailer didn't change that at all
booooooring -
Its great to see a film that relies on a sharp, witty script and imaginative action, as oppposed to, say, simply shaking the camera about and shouting.
-
Can't download it with either Firefox or Google Chrome. Clicking the links do nothing. I'd try IE, but somehow I doubt it would do any better on an Apple site.
Why do people insist on using Apple to distribute trailers? They're useless. If someone could post a link that works, I'd love to see the trailer. -
Why do I let that bother me so?
-
Looks a hoot, I'm there

Haha are you an old black lady or something? PS I fucking hate quicktime. I wanted to see this trailer but not enough to update yet again.
-
Emma stone is frikkin hot though!
-
Hate to say this, but i'm getting sick of Zombies.sure it was a cool genre/fad from the resident evil series to the DOTD remake, but this fucking oversaturation is getting goddamn rediculous.Zombie strippers?wtf is up with that shit and now Zombieland?Pass like gas.
-
I laughed, so I'll see it. I'm easy.
-
Woody is Bruce Ash!
-
that no matter how bad this is, it could never be as bad as Land of the Dead.
-
It looks kinda fun.
-
Didn't watch it at first and I watch all trailers; I'm just a fucking trailer nut junkie, flat out. I'm so zombied-out, it's all been done, said, and filmed, had no interest in this movie whatsoever and if I want to see Bill Murray as a zombie, I can pick up any movie he's made in the last ten years. But then I gave in and clicked on to watch the trailer...it looks good, feels fresh. Also, it has Eddie's best song in the trailer. Kinda fitting, Van Halen a tired old band on its last legs and the one song they have that still feels fresh in the trailer of a movie who's genre is tired and failing and on its last legs, yet this trailer felt fresh. What the fuck am I talking about!?!?!? Anyway, looks good.
-
Personally, agree with above .. World War Z will be the zombie movie, however, with this being a dead genre, I doubt it will. That being said .. this looks good.
It looks well constructed and should be the right kind of comedy for this genre. As a kid I always remembered that line "Get this (that) damned screwdriver, outta mah head" - I think it was Return of the living dead, i'd internet it but I am too lazy. Always thought that line was hilarious and this should be up there as well. -
SSH is mainly doing TV these days. Shame. Given some of what passes for comedy these days, film is poorer without him.
Loved the trailer. The piano bit cracked me up. Also, is Roy Munson the man in this or what? -
YOU PUSSY MINCY FAGGOTS SITTING AROUND MASTURBATING OVER YOUR STAINED DVD COPY OF TWILIGHT AND RUBBING THE BUFFY BOX SET IN YOUR ASSCRACKS AND CATCHING EVERY SHOW THAT COMES ON THE CW CLEARLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND ZOMBIE MOVIES AND SHOULD HENCEFORTH AVOID POSTING IN THIS TB.
YOU CLEARLY NEED TO STAY IN THE VAMPIRE TWEEN GENRE BECAUSE YOU SURE AS FUCK DON'T UNDERSTAND ZOMBIE FILMS.
THIS FILM IS GOING TO BE A MASTERPIECE. -
Brainless drivel. What happened to Woody Harrelson? I remember a time when he had a career, was even considered to be some kind of star... Sad
-
After all the characters drop dead from STD's, OD'ing, and Bill Hader's coke-fueled rampages with a baseball bat?
-
looks decent, actually...
-
A truly funny re-telling of Lassie, except it's a boy and his Zombie. Otherwise, a perfect recreation of a 1950's kid's movie. Beautiful sets and cinematography.
-
Woody Harrelson hamming it up as a gleeful killer of all things zombie? Kid from Adventureland starring in Zombieland? Emma Stone getting hotter?
Tons of creative zombie kills?
I'll be there. -

Yup Fido was a class wee Zombflick and this looks pretty cool
by bongo123
i say keep bringing on the zombie flicks... just dont let Romero near em
-
Yeah, you're so spot on, zombie films are some of the most ambiguos and mentally engaging films ever created. I mean, Dawn of the Dead, zombies in a shopping mall in the 80's, wow, genius. They're zombie movies, for Christ's sakes!! Bottom line if you have to amke a movie full of hidden inuendo and deep symbolism and you choose the zombie genre to deliver it, maybe you should go back to screenwriting 101. Sometimes a movie about zombies is just a movie about zombies. Actually, pretty much all the time. Stop trying to insert social commentary into zombie films to justify the fact that you like them.
-
Finally, a zombie movie that looks like fun.
-
i watch my zombie films to be entertained by scenes of utter devastation, desperate humans fighting against each other, hordes of zombies and a hero triumphing through it all... oh and gore! Fuck the social commentary shit, i don’t need my films to tell me money is bad, governments can’t be trusted and consumerism is the root of all evil... what am i? Fucking 12 that i need it explained to me via the medium of film using fucking zombies of all bloody things!!?? Land of the Dead was a fucking embarrassment of major proportions with that shit, keep the zomb flicks tight, gory & full of scares, leave the rest of that shit to Michael Moore...
-
Why hasn't this happened yet this century?
-
"They're Zombies Francis!"
"WHATEVER!!!" -
...will always be given a chance by me. I mean, how many other premises span the years and landscape as a fictional zombie plague? There's so many stories to tell. I'll never get sick of the good ones.
-
I agree with you 100 percent. It seems like the only avenue to proceed in with regards to monster movies is the Wolfman. With the exception of demonic possession. the werewolf is the only thing I can imagine seeing in a horror film anymore that actually has the ability to be SCARY. I know some people want fun horror films, I know some people want the comedic gorefests, those are fine. And yes, some people want social commentary in a zombie movie, which I think is just silly. Me? I want to be scared. I want to turn off the lights and have something actually frighten me. It's not inpossible, and boo jump scares and soundtrack scares aren't scary. (Ya hear that, Raimi?) The werewolf mythology has that ability unlike vampires and zombies yet we are beat over the head with vampires and zombies. I love a GOOD vampire and zombie movie as much as the next guy but fuck! Give me a fucking chill up the spine werewolf movie over any of them anyday. Sadly, I don;t think this glossy major release with Benicio is going to fit the bill but I remain hopeful. With all the fucking remakes out there, why not reamke something that was thisclose to being fantastic but was missing just a little something like Silver Bullet? If someone could improve upon Silver Bullet, I'd be all for that.
-
Seems quite promising...as long as they have that vaguely Patrick Stewart-sounding narrator giving commentary through the whole movie...
-
Harry....you should know better my friend, Zombies ARE different from GHOULS and LIVING MUMMIES and VAMPIRES. You should especially be ashamed at your pondering of the classification of Frankenstein's Monster.
We should talk. I need to clear this up for you. All of geekdoom depends on it. LOL
-
Huh...
Looks like these Zombies can really move.
It didn't bother me too much in the DAWN remake, but I prefer shamblers. Looks fun! -
Did you have a straight face when you posted that? I had to chuckle. Oh, and thanks Darkman for the update on Savage Steve.
-
Not sure how it'll turn out, but: http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/15600
-
Wow, and a movie called Demonology; I like it.
-
the traditional european vampire was smelly, dirty, stupid and just lived to sneak out of his/her resting place to drain somebody of their blood, then crawl back to the tomb. They did not rot. A true zombie, however, is a reanimated corpse the live to kill-a pure psychopath-and has a limited amount of time in which to do it, as they are subject to the process of putrification and eventually would lose limbs, tendons, all muscle and the ability to walk. A real zombie would appear as a writhing mass of white maggots stumbling down the street. They would NOT look like the traditional Savini zombie-with gruesome wounds frozen in time. No, their flesh, if you could see it, would be BLACK and SWOLLEN from the putrification process. The vampire, although a reanimated corpse, would remain virtually inchanged save for the pale complexion and dark circles under the eyes. His/her hair would certainly be a tangled mess. There-time to do these monsters right, Hollywood. If you did zombies right, it should be disturbing as hell, and thats not from the 'gore', it from a sheltered society really seeing the effects of nature on ones remains. Yuck.
-
Hopefully both films will turn out to be good!

You can read the idotic childish unfunny headline and just know
by nechyv
Seriously, thats exactly what I thought before I clicked this and lo and behold "Hey folks, Harry here-"
-
And Woody Harrelson is a douche nozzle. Count me out.
-
A lot more fun than that steaming turd that is 2012! At least it has intentional comedy in it.
-
That looks frakking awesome! There's a blog that has zombified versions of pop songs you'd probably dig: http://zombaritaville.blogspot.com/
