After a series of strange reports, a living dead outbreak results in a series of countermeasures to stop them which is what happens to a man who returns from the dead to attack his ex who has moved in with the man who killed him to take his place and must keep him safe from the agency out to stop him.
This was a massively enjoyable feature. One of the better features here is the over-the-top setup that creates a highly unique and bizarre universe which is featured here. The main setup of the universe where the pharmaceutical drug that was being released to the public as a mood lightener which had known side effects only to stumble upon an even greater one in the ability to bring the dead back to life is a decent enough starting point for this type of story. Even better is the later setup of the company being so delusional to keep the news off the media so that they can maintain a professional public image as to discredit anyone who tries to bring the concept up with news reports or clandestine agents trying to take out those that claim to have them is just the right amount of goofy to make this work. On top of that, this plays perfectly well into the later scenes where the zombified ex returns and tries to take out the couple who are together after his death. Playing with a screwball farcical-style setup involving the couple blissfully unaware of his condition and trying to make do with the situation that grows continually more awkward as he's completely sure of the condition while she tries to go on as nothing happened, the scenes are genuinely gut-busting hilarious as they try to convince the other of what's going on. This leads to a lot of great back-and-forths as to what's going on involving some solid skits and plenty of fun comments on the situation which brings about a rather silly charm that gets brought about throughout the film as a whole that all together gives this a lot to like about it. There isn't much to dislike here or holding this one back. The main flaw here is that for all the fun it has with the idea of the couple trying to convince each other of the situation before them, it has the effect of making her look so stupid as to be not worth fighting for. Going to the lengths she does to convince herself and him that the creature before them is her e and not a flesh-eating zombie is the kind of mental gymnastics that makes her out to be a massive disservice in making her seem likable as the film goes along. Her nagging and put-downs aren't much help and the whole thing makes her look so unlikeable and just plain awful to be around. The fact that this goes for flashbacks constantly to try to make a joke ends up interrupting the pacing to the point it's done way too much and feels repetitive, which is enough to bring this one down.
Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language, Violence, and comedic sexual situations.
