“The Living Dead and the dying living are all the same. Cut from the same cloth. But disposing of dead people is a public service, whereas you’re in all sorts of trouble if you kill someone while they’re still alive.”
— Francesco Dellamorte (Rupert Everett)
Cemetery Man proves that no matter how bad your job is, at least you don’t have to re-bury bodies after they come back to life as flesh-eating zombies. Dellamorte lives in the cemetery with his barely-functional assistant Gnaghi (François Hadji-Lazaro) and has never been able to enjoy a normal life thanks to his unusual vocation.
His world gets shaken up when he finally meets the woman of his dreams (Anna Falchi), and then is forced to kill her. As he tries to get over her death, he keeps meeting her identical twins… and ends up killing them, too.
Cemetery Man is a rather bizarre black comedy/horror film that would definitely fill the need to see something “different” this Halloween season.
