More details on IMDB and Wikipedia 

The first film Zombieland (2009) is my favorite zombie movie period. Naturally the sequel Zombieland: Double Tap (2019) is a film that I expected to enjoy prior watching it and it did not disappoint. Both movies are top recommendation for a day you want good comedy. After all, zombies are more interesting when they make you laugh.

The plot is very simple, all four main characters need to survive the zombie apocalypse. Woody Harrelson does that by being a bad ass, while Emma Stone is taking the survivor's approach. The most unique planning is the one by Jesse Eisenberg as he compiled a huge list of rules that you have to follow to the letter if you plan on surviving.

It took ten years to get this sequel and was as well received as 99 minutes had been added to a favorite movie. Hardcore fans are happy again and we finally forgot the 2013 nightmare when Amazon tried to release a series under different cast. Thankfully those series never got past the "pilot" and now it is erased out of existence as we got a proper movie sequel.
