I should say that I absolutely hated the dumb-beyond-belief ZOMBIELAND, so this ZOMBIELAND spoof had little chance of appealing to me. Having watched it, I'm absolutely gobsmacked at how this gets away with being a scene-for-scene copy of that film, merely replacing zombies with zombie strippers but otherwise keeping everything exactly the same.
Does this film exist in some kind of weird limbo where copyright laws no longer apply? Or is it so cheap and so amateurish that the studio behind ZOMBIELAND just didn't bother filing a lawsuit? Whatever the reason, it will remain a mystery for me, and it doesn't change the fact that this is an awful mess of a film. Derivative, unfunny, with bad acting and worse special effects.
The best STRIPPERLAND can manage is to string together a series of cheesy cameos by various figures like Daniel Baldwin (a new low for the actor),Linnea Quigley, and Lloyd Kaufman. I was particularly put off by the quality of the actresses playing the zombie strippers; they make the starlets of ZOMBIE STRIPPERS! look like professionals by comparison. Anyway, STRIPPERLAND is hands down the most derivative film I've ever seen, and viewers should shun this homemade film in their droves.

How can they get away with this?
I DIDN'T BRING ANY DOLLAR BILLS
This film is a spoof on "Zombieland." If you have never seen "Zombieland" the enjoyment value of this film will be greatly diminished. Like "Zombieland" this feature has our two heroes travel across the country and are later joined by two women. Their eventual goal is to go to Portland, Oregon (ground zero for strippers) and seek out Granmbo (Linnea Quigley). Benjamin Sheppard is our Jesse Eisenberg, Jamison Challeen is our Woody Harrelson.
In addition to spoofing "Zombieland," this film smartly satirizes the relationship between men and strippers and unreal expectations that mankind shares.
There is plenty of Troma style blood and guts. The extras show a bunch of women immensely enjoying making this film. This is a fun film to watch, especially right after "Zombieland."
Parental Guide: F-bomb, No sex. Some nudity, but not as much as one would expect from the title.
No Sequel please
Thank you very much - and I say this because this is based on Zombieland - and that is not just losely. Yes so the zombies here are female strippers. Sexist you say? No they talk about it in the movie in a very boring dialog scene, so it is all good.
Now I hope you got the sarcasm, but if not the rating should tell you how I really feel. This was really boring and while I acknowledge this is a low budget movie, the CGI is quite ok. It is painfully obvious, but you shouldn't expect any different. Lloyd Kaufman, whom I really like has a cameo that is not worthy of his comedic talent - and the movie overall is the same ... unfortunately
