Cinema legend Jim Jarmusch, to whom we owe laconic and minimalist masterpieces like the western Dead Man or the hitman drama Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samuraialso directed a zombie film in 2019 – and those familiar with Jarmusch will quickly guess that The Dead Don’t Die is very different from the works on zombies that we are used to seeing.

Just because this movie is so different from The Walking Dead, Army Of The Dead, World War Z or all the productions of the genre that you have seen, we recommend this offbeat cinematographic object. Good news, The Dead Don’t Die is available for streaming on Netflix!
What is it about?
The Dead Don’t Die is a zombie comedy with a prestigious cast: Bill Murray, Adam Driver and Chloë Sevigny play police officers in a small town who are confronted with the sudden appearance of zombies. What is happening? Does funeral director Zelda Winston (Tilda Swinton), who wields a samurai sword, know more? One thing is certain, right-wing farmers (Steve Buscemi), local business owners (Danny Glover, Caleb Landry Jones), mail carriers (RZA), and passing urban hipsters (Austin Butler, Selena Gomez) will all soon be in danger. ..

On Allociné, the film only gets 2.1 out of 5, but it still has its defenders! “It’s been a long time since a zombie movie entertained me this much.“, “Jarmusch tramples on the codes and lets the viewer’s mind wander as it pleases in front of a confusing and original work“, “A gem of dark humor and absurdity. The bad reviews here obviously didn’t understand this kind of film and took this humor at face value or were expecting a zombie film with blood and such like we see every time“, we can read in particular.

We simply advise you to let yourself be surprised and not expect something in the style of Zombieland or others. Here, nonchalance prevails. If you’re looking for “action” in the classic sense, you won’t find any. The Dead Don’t Die barely follows a classic dramaturgy – and although samurai swords and baseball bats are used, it is still a far cry from The Walking Dead…
In short, if you like zombies and humor, it’s worth a look!
