While not entirely flawless in its execution, Taccone’s Over Your Dead Body is a thrilling and hilarious horror movie that delivers plenty of plot twists and gruesome wounds. Go to Full Review Zachary Lee TheWrap Mar 19
Taccone and his team have managed to take the existential and interior strife common in a marriage and transfigure it into a riotous and convivial physical battle for survival and sanity. Go to Full Review Dex Wesley Parra Austin Chronicle Mar 18
In its best stretches a rip-roaring thriller comedy with satisfying savagery, Over Your Dead Body is ultimately undone by the flat script. Go to Full Review George and Josh Bate Battle Royale With Cheese 1d
4.5/10
Rarely has there been a film that so effectively and immediately hooks you in with tension, humor, and a strong premise only to gradually lose its way before combusting into near ruin by the time its final credits roll. Go to Full Review BJ Colangelo Slashfilm 5d
7/10
