Comedy horror starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg and Bill Murray. In a world inhabited largely by zombies the few remaining humans are forced, rather reluctantly, to band together in order to avoid falling foul of their flesh-eating neighbours. Columbus (Eisenberg) is petrified of the zombies that surround him and is much happier running away from them, while Tallahassee (Harrelson) is slightly more fearless, chosing to kick zombie ass at every opportunity.

However, the two unlikely comrades join forces, along with other living humans Little Rock and Wichita (Abigail Breslin and Emma Stone), in order to battle the zombies and eke out a way of survival.
