Where to Watch Dead Lover
- SirMonkalotJuly 1, 2026What a fun, weird and charming film! It definitely feels like you’re watching a play, which isn’t a bad thing. There were so many scenes that made me laugh and the plot kept taking turns I didn’t expect but that I ending up loving so much! Grace Glowicki is awesome and I love the kinds of movies she’s making! Can’t wait to see what’s next 😃
- cultfilmlikerMay 30, 2026Three separate adaptations of Frankenstein in two years is *frankly* ridiculous. The fact that this is somehow worse than The Bride! might be the most impressive bit of it all If this film wasn’t supposed to be this bad, it would fit perfectly in a new season of MST3K It’s like the worst segment from an ABC’s of Death installment got a feature-length treatment An over-stylized but somehow styleless, not funny, extremely cheesy, and cartoonish to an annoying degree. It looks like it’s filmed on a college’s play stage. It’s definitely transgressive - I’ll give it that! “Nuns are lesbians lol” oooh edgy stuff!! An extremely insufferable piece of shit. Wanted to turn it off 15 minutes in and that want grew exponentially with time. The sound effects were straight grating by the midway point Genuinely will never understand people that enjoy characters this unfunny, and a production this unbearable. They really spent $350,000 making this!? The saddest part is this is them really trying so I feel bad hating it quite so much. But here we are!
