The Dead Don't Die (2019)

Just the kind of sick and twisted comedy we love, this features small town police zombie-chasers Bill Murray, Adam Driver, and Chloƫ Sevigny with a notable cast of undead or doomed (including Tilda Swinton, Steve Buscemi, many more) and narration by Tom Waits. You have to be okay with the violence to enjoy it as much as we did, but it's all played for laughs, directed and written by Jim Jarmusch. No composer is credited.

Murray was last blogged for Isle of Dogs, Driver for BlacKKKlansman, Sevigny for Love & Friendship (in which I referenced zombies, believe it or not), Swinton for Okja, Buscemi for Nancy, Waits for The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, and Jarmusch for Paterson, which also starred Driver.

Not very many people enjoyed this like we did. Rotten Tomatoes' critics average is 56% and its audiences' 38.

Yep, it's streaming now, four months after we saw it on June 25, 2019.
