I love horror comedies! Especially ones this smart and effective. Deadtectives perfectly balances jokes with scares. The characters were all extremely charming and relatable. I could have done with another female lead but that's just nitpicking. Fans of Ghostbusters and Beetlejuice NEED to watch this gem.
We get literally one hundred new cheesy Hallmark Christmas movies each year and I think us horror fans deserve at least a couple annual cheesy Christmas horror movies at least! Sure, this movie isn't "good" but it's totally fun and good-hearted. You could do way worse when celebrating the holiday season.
With this premise and the paring of Penn and Adam Rifkin, I was expecting this film to be hilarious but I didn't expect it to be so nasty! I really liked the way that they used this wild way of making a movie but part of me was left wanting more strong female characters. I get that it's from the perspective of the lead character who is a horrible man but I still think they could have found a way to make the female characters feel more than one note. That being said, this movie is wild, it's hilarious and it's very weird. Will watch again.
