  • In the opening sequence, a topless zombie is seen running after people. However, she is wearing panties and nipple covers.

  • A man hits a zombie in the head with a banjo.
  • A man in a car drives up to a disemboweled zombie on the highway and opens his door, hitting it, and he drives over it.

  • A person falls out of their house and attacked by zombies.
  • At the beginning of the film, there is a montage of zombies.
  • A person falls out of a car and a bunch of zombies go over to him. (It's implied he dies, but the camera cuts before we see this happen.)
  • In the blurred background of a shot, a zombie can be seen in front of a dead man.
  • A man goes up to a car and sees two hands on the steering wheel not attached to a human. No gore is visible and this is meant to be funny.

Profanity

  • 28 uses of "Fuck".

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Tallahassee smokes a cigar.
  • A man lights marijuana in a multi-tubed device, with a man and girl putting a tube to their mouths. They seem to be high momentarily in the next scene.

  • A man drinks a shot of liquor and offers one to another guy who pours it out the car window while he's not looking.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • There is one scene in a haunted house with a couple jump scares, which may seem frightening to some people.
  • A fairly violent sequence early on. There are two or three jump scenes involving zombies that suddenly appear (just momentarily scary).
  • Zombies are very scary. Gore is not visible though.

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Violence & Gore

  • There's a massive final battle between the protagonists and the zombies. Tallahassee and Columbus drive through a theme park ramming into and running over zombies, and Tallahassee holes up in a game booth and takes on a large group of zombies, shooting all of them graphically. Columbus battles a clown zombie, hitting it with a hammer and brutally bashing its head in.
  • Wichita and Little Rock drive through a theme park in a car and hit some zombies, and both get out and shoot more zombies as they run. They get on a ride, and kick some zombies that grab onto it, and they fall to their deaths.
  • A man is accidentally shot in the chest, we see a bloody wound for a bit. He dies slowly.

Profanity

  • About 32 F-words and its derivatives.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Bill Murray's death may be sad for some (although it is still played along with comedy)
  • The little girls as zombies can be frightening.
  • In one scene, it is revealed that the zombie apocalypse took Tallahassee's son. This scene is VERY emotional. However, it ends up being slightly comical when he says 'I haven't cried like this since Titanic.'
