'The Dead Don't Die' In Jarmusch's Latest, But Your Patience Will
In Jim Jarmusch's archly pessimistic zombie comedy, characters repeat the same gags and prove humanity isn't worth saving. Sound like fun?
"This is going to end badly," Adam Driver says, over and over with slight variations, in the new zombie comedy The Dead Don't Die. It's both the movie's catchphrase and . Things tend not to end well in general, because people have a habit of taking bad situations and making them worse, and there's no reason to suspect that will change when the dead are rising from their graves and feasting on the bodies of the living. To the extent that the film has a joke, this is it: Humans mess everything up, and in the end probably aren't worth saving.
