Dead Lover

A grief-stricken gravedigger resorts to freakish means to bring her dead lover back in Grace Glowicki's gruesome Canadian horror-comedy.

A foul-smelling gravedigger (writer-director Glowicki) dreaming of romance meets her soulmate. But when tragedy strikes, grief and desperation drive her to grotesque (creative?) lengths.

With a cast of just four performing multiple roles and accents, this microbudget Frankenstein-inspired Canadian horror-comedy is filled with gross gags, DIY special effects and a nod to the influences of John Waters and fellow Canadian filmmakers Guy Maddin and Matthew Rankin.
