Zombieland comes out this Friday October 2nd, so to get yourself prepared for all the gruesome giggles movieset.com has got a ton of Zombieland clips for you to check out!
Zombieland focuses on two men who have found a way to survive a world overrun by zombies. Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) is a big wuss -- but when you're afraid of being eaten by zombies, fear can keep you alive. Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) is an AK-toting, zombie-slaying' badass whose single determination is to get the last Twinkie on earth. As they join forces with Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin), who have also found unique ways to survive the zombie mayhem, they will have to determine which is worse: relying on each other or succumbing to the zombies.

esse Eisenberg will be a familiar face for cinemagoers this autumn with turns in coming-of-age amusement park comedy Adventureland (it's very good, and he's witty and whip-smart in it) and horror film Zombieland. DS caught up with Jesse to talk about his movie career and the topics covered included the flesh-eating undead! Here's what he had to say about working on Zombieland, Bill Murray's mysterious cameo, and why he doesn't fancy his chances of being a Ghostbuster.

"...The movie is kind of a buddy comedy. [Woody Harrelson] plays this guy who loves killing zombies, it's his favourite thing. My character is the opposite, I run from them. I have a list of 47 rules on how to survive. [Woody's character] just loves experimenting with new ways to kill them. It's kind of a funny dichotomy and it's like a road trip buddy movie. I think it'll be really funny..."

Zombies to invade Dayton

Zombies may be cool to the touch, but they’re hotter than ever — at least as far as Hollywood is concerned.

“Juno” scribe Diablo Cody is producing a movie called “Breathers: A Zombie’s Lament.”

Brad Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment secured the rights to Max Brooks’ best-selling zombie novel “World War Z.” Marc Forster (“Quantum of Solace”) has signed on to direct.

Later this year, Woody Harrelson and Abigail Breslin will star in “Zombieland.”

Generating big buzz at the Cannes Film Festival this year? “Colin,” a zombie movie made for $70 by director Marc Price.

“...If there’s something new about today’s zombie, it’s his relatability. Sure, he’s an abomination and a crime against all that is good and holy. But he exemplifies some real American values, too. He’s plucky and tenacious — you can cut off his limbs and he’ll keep on coming atcha...”

Hot Nerd: Jesse Eisenberg

"I don't get the scripts Will Smith gets," says Jesse Eisenberg. This may be true, but it certainly doesn?t mean that he's not in demand: this 25-year-old actor's got an impressive number of films in production — including playing young Allen Ginsberg in 2010's Kill Your Darlings — but you won't be hearing it from him. But therein likes the charm of Jesse Eisenberg, who's carved out a place for himself in the Hollywood landscape by perfecting the brainy-boy-who-nervously-talks-too-fast act in smartypants indies like Roger Dodger, The Squid and the Whale and this past spring's sleeper hit Adventureland. In person Eisenberg (who does indeed speak rather rapidly and tends to apologize needlessly) is self-effacing and modest, both anxious and charming kind of like a young Woody Allen.

"...Does it sound obnoxious to say I ride a bicycle everywhere?..."
