Dead Lover

Review preview for Dead Lover

The expressionist feeling of early 20th century cinema is further enhanced by the specific colour scheme, resembling a very early version of Technicolor, while the sound recalls that of the early sound films.

Marko Stojiljkovic · 3.5 out of 5
A lonely gravedigger who stinks of corpses finally meets her dream man, but their whirlwind affair is cut short when he tragically drowns at sea. Grief-stricken, she goes to morbid lengths to resurrect him through madcap scientific experiments, resulting in grave consequences and unlikely love.

(Country: Canada; Year: 2025; Director: Grace Glowicki; Writer: Grace Glowicki, Ben Petrie; Stars: Grace Glowicki, Leah Doz, Ben Petrie, Lowen Morrow)
