RIGAMORTIS: A ZOMBIE LOVE STORY

Cinemavixion Review

In the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse, "Rigamortis: A Zombie Love Story" offers a surprisingly tender, albeit short, exploration of companionship and love in the most unlikely of circumstances. This 2011 independent short, directed by Ted Campbell and Dave Dewes, posits a world where humanity has quelled the undead uprising, leaving behind only two reanimated souls. The film, boasting a commendable 8.2 rating on IMDb, follows these last zombies as they navigate a world that fears them, seeking not survival, but sanctuary and connection. The narrative also cleverly weaves in the tale of a zombie hunter grappling with loss, leading to an "explosive finale" that forces disparate characters together. While the local data gives us the premise, the external data enriches it with context of its genre (Short, Comedy) and the actors Maxwell Glick and Deacon Ledges, suggesting a blend of dark humor and heartfelt moments that challenge conventional zombie tropes. It's a unique take that proves even the undead can find love.
