The best part of this rather lackluster poster for Zombieland (via ComingSoon) is the tagline - "Nut Up or Shut Up." But other than that, this is bland. The whole thing just feels off-centered. I know that it's tilted (which seems to be an increasing trend with posters these days), but it looks shifted to the right too much. And the damn coloring just annoys me. Why is everything almost black and white, except for the chainsaw, Tallahassee's left holster, and the insides of Little Rock's jacket? It really makes no sense. Please tell me this was just a screwed up version and it's actually fully colored? Because this movie deserves a better poster!

Columbus (Eisenberg) has made a habit of running from what scares him. Tallahassee (Harrelson) doesn't have fears. If he did, he'd kick their ever-living ass. In a world overrun by zombies, these two are perfectly evolved survivors. But now, they're about to stare down the most terrifying prospect of all: each other.

Zombieland is directed by first-time filmmaker Ruben Fleischer of only a few episodes of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" previously. The screenplay was written by newcomers Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese best known for "The Joe Schmo Show" previously. Sony will be bringing Zombieland to theaters on October 9th this fall.
