The Dead Don't Die

Unfunny horror movie in 1 hour and 43 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No need to pile on with all the other bad reviews. 1/5 turds on the turdometer.

A few chuckles in the beginning. Plot took forever to get anywhere and then it just fizzled out. It felt like someone had an amusing idea but forgot to finish the script. Very unsatisfying!

I signed up just to write a review about this movie. Slow paced and the humor is not giving. The cast was perfect but it was directed poorly.

It's had some bad reviews, but I personally loved the tone and the deadpan/understated reactions to the goings on. I guess you either get it or you don't.

I am shocked at how terrible this movie is. I had huge expectations given the level of the cast. Bill Murry is a legend. How did he end up in this movie? None of the characters are likable, you're not routing for any of them. Why was Selena Gomez in this movie. The dialog is terrible, the acting is worse. These people have been in great movies so they can act, clearly the director was aiming for something and it fell far short of its goal. What a waste of time!

As an asian guy, I totally lost interest in the movie after witnessing Tilda Swinton playing with a JAPANESE katana in front of a representation of Buddha and saying in CHINESE « Amitofo »

It almost worked - the dry humour, a commentary on modern apathy, and stella cast - but - it was boring, the fourth wall breaks didn't work, and ultimately I left feeling meh, if not a little annoyed for the time wasted watching it.

The acting is really awkward and stilted. I realise it's a comedy but it's still unrelatable and the characters are so unnatural. This style is so annoying and makes it hard to watch to the point that all that I can think about is watching anything else. Even at 1.5x it's borderline unbearable. The occasional funny ideas are lost in the attempt at humour. Right I did my best but I had to turn it off and that automatically gets it a 1. Possibly the worst big budget film I've ever seen some, but not all, of.

Don't go into this film expecting a generic zombie film, it is an arthouse film with themes that drift in and out and storylines which go nowhere. I admit I was underwhelmed at first but if you watch the film with the knowledge that its an almost semi conscious stream of story then you will enjoy it. There are several running gags which make up for the somewhat boring visuals. The comedy is deadpan but enjoyable.
