If you can’t tell already, my new goal is to watch ever A24 horror movie. This one caught my attention on Netflix as I love actress Aubrey Plaza from watching her on the television series Parks and Recreation . This horror-comedy takes place when a young man’s ex-girlfriend and love of his life suddenly passes away. After attending the funeral, he goes to Beth’s parents house to grieve where he sees Beth in the house! Is he going nuts, or did his ex-girlfriend just return from dead? Though I love all the actors and cameo appearances including John C. Reiley and Molly Shannon, this movie can be a bit clumsy and slow. I think it had more potential to go full dark-comedy horror like Shaun of the Dead , or go the warm love-zombie romance route like Warm Bodies . I also wish this movie would have expanded on the unexpected zombie apocolapyse that begins towards the latter end of the film . This movie had a few funny parts, though I don’t think I would watch it again. Scoreboard:
