"Zombieland" is being directed for Columbia Pictures by a guy named Ruben Fleischer. His most noteworthy directing credit seems to be a handful of episodes of "Jimmy Kimmel," but I'm not going to hold his inexperience against him. I dig Woody Harrelson and I dig zombies – it would take a lot to fuck up such a sure-fire formula for success.

Indeed, someone else must have thought that "Zombieland" would be a hit. When I looked the film up on IMDb I found a second listing under that title with a completely different plot. This one is being made in France and is about a mortuary that is recreated as an amusement park … I knew there was a reason Euro Disney sucked.

Anyway, I mention this other film because it has one of the most bizarre taglines I have ever read:

"Zombieland – their issue is your tissue."

Does that mean something else in French? Because, to be honest, I'm not even sure if it means something in English – all I can imagine is a bunch of people wiping their noses with tiny zombie babies. That could either be totally bizarre or really fucking bizarre, either way. All I know is that now I definitely want to see BOTH "Zombielands."

No link to The Hollywood Reporter will be forthcoming – this is why
