The Dead Don't Die (2019)

Centerville residents find themselves in the middle of an unexplained zombie epidemic.

"The Dead Don't Die" is an art film, by well known auteur Jim Jarmusch, a film which is disguised as a zombie horror comedy. The film is all of the above, but moreover, it's a satire that comments on the current era of digital consumerism. The message does not even try to be subtle, and the comedy has its main sources coming from the placidity of some of the characters when faced with the events and the rich dialogue that crosses the barrier of the film with small references to the real context of the production.

Bonus: the film has a whole collection of unexpected cameos (Iggy Pop, Selena Gomez, Tilda Swinton and so on).
