Cemetery Man (1994)
7/10
Stylish gothic horror meets hilarious insanity
17 August 2020
Sometimes you just like a movie instantly. I could describe Cemetery Man a movie you can't take your eyes off. That's how I felt. The visual style and the cemetery as the location are perfect for a horror movie, and the music adds to the atmosphere. I got drawn in instantly.

Then there's the humorous aspect. I don't know how to describe it. I've never really seen a movie with this kind of tone. It's not overblown comedic but often quite hilarious. Comedy is a difficult thing to pull off, especially when combining with something different, but I think this movie nails it.

The plot is so weird that it's hard to describe. The first half made at least some kind of sense but towards the end I fell off the wagon. But I still loved all the weirdness and randomness of it. There's also some philosophical and poetic talk about life, death, and love, but I didn't really grasp yet is it actually something deep or just empty babbling.

I'm definitely going to watch it again at some point, and recommend for fans of cemeteries, comedy-horror, and weirdness.
