Corrected entry: When Tallahasee is in the booth, he sets out Beretta magazines on the counter, but when shooting is seen holding 1911s.

Corrected entry: In the opening narration, Columbus says that the zombie virus derived from the virus that causes Mad Cow disease. The problem is, Mad Cow disease is caused by prions (pathogenic, misfolded proteins), not viruses. It can't really count as a character mistake because his narration is used to deliver exposition outside of the main story.
Correction: Columbus is also giving information to Joe and Jane Average with this narration. How many people watching are going to have the first clue of what a prion or prokaryote or eukaryote or bacillus is? Everyone's heard of a virus, so there you go.

Corrected entry: When Tallahassee and Columbus first meet, Tallahassee gets out of his truck and cocks a lever action type of double barrel shotgun, but when he puts it up it's a single barrel shotgun.
Correction: Tallahassee's weapon stays the same. It's a shortened Winchester 1892 rifle nicknamed a "Mare's Leg". It might look double barrel at a glance because of the tubular magazine under the barrel.

Zombieland (2009)
Corrected entry: In the opening scenes, when Columbus is telling his rules and is shown been chased by two zombies, he runs to his car, drops his keys and continues running (I.E. Cardio). He comes back to his car and opens the door, then drives off and a zombie who was quietly lying down in the back seat attacks him. This is obviously added for shock value, as we see no car damage to show the zombie forced its way in and since zombies are full of rage, we are expected to believe it could calmly sit and wait for the driver.
Correction: Columbus also tells the audience that the zombies seemed to get smarter, catching people when they were most vulnerable, ie in the john. One crawling into his car and waiting for him to get in would fall neatly into this category.

Correction: Actually, he has a 1911 in his right hand and a SIG P226 9mm in his left. He sets down SIG and Colt magazines.
