Are We Dead Yet

They didn't even try to make a cohesive story line.....

Its a bit off the usual horror comedy style, but it has its scares, and it has its funny moments, especially in the first part, else its a very bad storytelling, and the horrors in the dark, well they stay in the dark, cause the filmcrew hadnt paid the gasbill for light and heat at the filming location. its darn dark and having actors in dark suits and even actors born with dark skin, it aint easy to figure out what'e,what'a,whats going on.

so whats said and done in the dark stays in the dark, the acting have some talent and the slapstick intrusions are good, but not easily for me , the grumpy old man to recommend.

I must admit that I was initially intrigued by this 2020 movie's poster/cover, and with a title such as "Are We Dead Yet" (aka "The Living Dead") then of course my interest was more than caught. I do like horror comedies, and this movie looked like it could be fun.

Turns out that writer and director Fredi 'Kruga' Nwaka seemed to be stumbling around in the dark when it came to writing a properly entertaining and coherent storyline. Sure, the movie was watchable, but the storyline was just such a swing and a miss that it wasn't really much fun to watch. And I must admit that several times along the way did the storyline take a turn for the worse. And when it was finally revealed what was really going on with the manor, you just go 'are you kidding?'

"Are We Dead Yet" have a low budget feel to it, but at the same time aspires to achieve greatness. However, the movie just ultimately didn't really manage to do well on that account.

This movie is labeled as a horror comedy, sure. But you have to look long and hard for satisfactory elements of both genres. Trust me.

As for the characters in the movie, well I can't really claim that it was a character gallery that I cared much for. In fact, I wouldn't even be able to name but a single character from the movie now, not even 2 hours after having finished the movie.

I can now tick "Are We Dead Yet" off of the list, and I can in all honesty say that this movie is not one that I will be returning to ever again. I am rating it a mere, albeit generous, three out of ten stars. There are far better and more enjoyable horror comedies readily available out there, and I can't really recommend that you waste your time, money or effort on this one. Some of us did, so you don't have to.

Bad acting alone, I couldn't understand majority of the cast. Perhaps because I'm not British, but mainly because the accent they all had was ugly. Throw in all the "horror" parts in pitch black rooms, and comedy that wasn't funny, and that's this movie.

I watched it all and wish I didn't bother, just stupid and pointless ,
