Time to nut up or shut up!

Introduced into this chaotic world by one of the few survivors left, we find out within the first 5 minutes of the movie why it's called what it is. A virus has been spread throughout the world that causes people to become extrmely violent and hunger for human flesh, and it was all started with a fast food joint serving a bad hamburger. I swear, if this really happens to humanity.. Anyway, only with the name of where he was going, Columbus shows us some rules he followed to stay alive, showing that even a wimp like him could manage to escape with his life from these things if you just follow some ground rules. There is a very odd and interesting way in which each rule is shown when it is folloed or being used; it pops up in a thick bold font on the screen and is blended inot the picture, so if a zombie knocks into one of the letters, it falls down partially, very creative and a good feature of the film. Not long after this does the plot thicken with more survivors; one man headed to Florida who is called (of course) Tallahassee with an awesome talent for Zombie killing, and two sisters named Witchita and Little Rock who both are pros at coning people and can't stop trying to screw over and rob the two men. There is that usual akward nerd/hot chick chemistry that's been in alot of films since Superbad, but it's not that bad and/or doesn't take away from the film or drag it down that much. With the group's individual stories of what places on the planet are complete ghost towns, all of them agree with the sisters' plan to go west, to a theme park in California named Pacific Playland. Great choice, becuase it really thickens up the plot and serves up an awesome climax along with many close call attacks on the four. While resting, they all follow Tallahassee's lead and head to the top actor's mansion where they could hide out, this part I was not expecting and it had me laughing a good amount. B.M., that's all I'll say. He is a great host and brings forth greens in the movie as well to his guests!! Now stop reading this and go see it already!!

Tallahassee: You got taken hostage by a 12 year old!
Columbus: Women mature very fast for thier age, she's more mature then I was at her age.
