Zombieland

Directed by Ruben Fleischer, Zombieland (2009) is a horror-comedy set in a post-apocalyptic America overrun by the undead. The film follows four survivors — the rules-obsessed Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg), Twinkie-hunting Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), and resourceful sisters Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) — as they make their way across a zombie-infested country, bickering and bonding along the way. The film features one of cinema's most beloved cameos and established a template for the irreverent zombie comedy.

Despite appearing to range across the continental United States, the film was made almost entirely in Georgia, with a brief detour to Los Angeles.

Zombieland was filmed on location primarily in Georgia, with the opening city-chaos scenes shot in downtown Atlanta and key sequences filmed at other locations around the state and in California.
