Zombies Claim to Fame: Canadian, North American & UK Box Office October 2, 2009 Weekend

Braaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiins!!!!!!!!!!! Zombieland top the Canadian and North American chart this week - how often do you get to say that? Fame (2009) snag #1 in the UK so no triple threat possibility as Zombieland arrives in the UK today, October 7, 2009. People are liking it too as it's also already on the IMDb Top 250 list (#116 as of Oct 6/09). I can't help but be happy, with zombie and performing arts shining brightly this week, they are two of my favourite genres!
