Monica Castillo Little White Lies 1d
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 2d
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 2d
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
Hoai-Tran Bui Inverse 9h
Over Your Dead Body is caught between Taccone’s goofier comedic stylings and the dark, brutal turn that the story takes. The result is a tonally unbalanced and mismatched movie that never quite earns its brutality. Go to Full Review

5/10
Over Your Dead Body begins with a captivating premise centered on two playful actors pushing themselves and the roles we expect from them, only to be spoiled by a story that leans too far into the darkness. Go to Full Review
J Hurtado ScreenAnarchy 2d
Uproariously funny, absolutely brutal in its disregard for the structural integrity of the human body, and lightning paced with jokes and stunts coming fast and furious, Over Your Dead Body is a definite winner for fans of bloodthirsty black comedy. Go to Full Review
