Review of The Dead Don't Die

Let´s start with the good. Most of the cast are good, and perfectly suited to their roles. I see that some reviewers are finding the movie slow and boring. I disagree. I think the movie works best in the first half when the tempo is slow. You get the feeling of the countryside, small town gossip etc. There is a quirky atmostphere and dialogue. The effects are quite nicely done. The is some gore, but it´s not overdone, so even if you are not fond of blood and guts you can mostly enjoy the movie. The bad: Well, the second half. The writer and director just doesn´t seem where to go with this movie. Side stories and up in nothing. I personally didn´t like the direction the story took in the second half. All in all not too bad. Probably won´t remember it for very long, though.
