Zombieland

One of my favorite films of 2009. This one features Woody Harrelson in a cross between Mad Max and National Lampoon's Vacation, an unlikely combination, but pulled off so well, with slick effects reminiscent of films from the Oceans series, so a very modern film, indeed. And I laughed out loud at least ten times. A rare comedic jewel in a sea of apocalypse and horror films hitting the screen these days.

The cameo in the film really brings this together as a cult piece; BM has been an icon of contemporary film culture ever since his career was renewed in the late 90s.
