Are We Dead Yet

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.

Amazon Prime has this called 'The Living Dead'. But yeah here it is on IMDB with a different name. What is up with this nonsense? -1 Star for that right off the bat...

Okay really this is a bad movie... but i made it to the end. 2/10

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.

This guy tried what Asylum has done for years - trying to get BIG money through CHEAP production, a VERY simple script and CHEAP actors - by using a familiar movie-name. The people behind this movie (apparantly) tried with BOTH "The living dead" and "Are we *dead* yet", an obvious try to cash in on "The living dead"-series and ALSO "Are we done yet?" respectively "Are we there yet?". "Fredi Kruga Nwaka" is a lousy Director/ Writer/ Actor AND a man who is trying to earn big money by doing the "Asylum-trick". You can decide if he will succeed by doing this - or not. One thing is certain - this movie is awful.

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