Movie Review: Otto; or, Up with Dead People (2008)
Brilliant, pseudo-80's Gay Zombie Flick
This movie is a masterpiece in many ways. The acting was excellent, cinematography compelling, script very good and the score fantastic. Otto is a multi-faceted gem and each bit shines.
The black&white silent film era girlfriend is so delicious you could eat her (and it's such an original and well executed idea). There is a lot of gayness, but that adds to the overall effect rather than detracting from it. Dr Z (spouse) loved this movie even with the full-on intestinal sex bits.
The flash-backs to Otto's previous life are so bright and happy it really accents Otto's current "un-life". The female director was slightly overdone but still hilarious. This has made our year movie-wise, and we'll be looking for more Bruce Labruce...
