An Oddball Zombie Flick...
How can filmmakers put a new wrinkle in the zombie sub-genre since George Romero gave us the modern concept of the creature in “Night of the Living Dead” — an undead cannibal ever on the prowl for the bodies of the living? In “The Dead Don’t Die,” director Jim Jarmusch presents an oddball spin on the genre with his deadpan tale of zombies on the loose in the small town of Centerville.<br /><br />Sheriff Cliff Robertson (Bill Murray) and Deputy Ronnie Peterson (Adam Driver) investigate the theft of chickens from farmer Miller (Steve Buscemi), the local loudmouth. They suspect local woods-dwelling hermit Bob (Tom Waits), who takes a shot at them from the underbrush. The cops take this in stride and head back to town. Their reactions are oddly calm.<br /><br />Not much happens in Centerville and this type of call is about as exciting as it gets, but all that will change. It’s not getting dark when it should. A radio broadcast tells us this may be due to the earth shifting on its axis. Then all cellphones and watches in town go on the fritz.<br /><br />After a pretty slow start, Robertson and Peterson discover the eviscerated bodies of two workers at the local diner. Everyone thinks a wild animal or several wild animals are responsible. But Peterson says, quite matter-of-factly, that he suspects zombies. Why? The crime scene resembles what he’s seen in zombie movies. He also volunteers the only way to destroy a zombie: Destroy the head. Robertson takes this in with no comment but a brief sidelong glance.<br /><br />Ultimately, the zombies do rise from their graves and shuffle through town, attacking and dining on the living. Make-up effects are excellent, and the zombies behave as they have in many films before.<br /><br />Rather than a grisly horror film, Jarmusch has directed a dry, low-key comedy. Characters occasionally make reference to the very film in which they are appearing, breaking the fourth wall and giving the movie a surreal quality. At one point, when Robertson asks Peterson how he knows what will happen, the deputy says he read it in the script.<br /><br />When the cops turn on the car radio after their police radio and cellphones fail to work, Robertson asks Peterson the name of the song being played. The deputy responds, “The Dead Don’t Die by Sturgill Simpson — the theme song of the movie.”<br /><br />Murray and Driver deliver similarly emotionless performances, never smiling once. The dialogue is slow and relaxed despite the fact that monsters are plaguing the small town.<br /><br />This is not the usual structure of a horror film. Generally a horror film will set the scene and introduce the characters quickly so it can get to the “good stuff.” Jarmusch makes us wait for the zombies, perhaps too long. The slow, halting, emotionless dialogue style becomes repetitive and loses its effectiveness.<br /><br />Chloe Sevigny plays a second deputy, Mindy Morrison, an eager young woman who seems to have a crush on the oblivious Peterson. Tilda Swinton as the local mortician, Zelda Winston, turns in yet another of her bizarre portrayals. Zelda has a knack not only for applying make-up to corpses but also for wielding a mean sword, a talent that comes in handy when zombies become ubiquitous.<br /><br />The supporting cast is more lustrous than is typical in zombie films. Caleb Landy Jones runs a gas station/comic book shop, Danny Glover is the local hardware store owner, and Carol Kane is a resurrected alcoholic. Selena Gomez is one of three young people who stop at the local motel, and Rosie Perez is seen periodically as TV reporter Posie Suarez.<br /><br />Once the zombies attack, graphic gore abounds. The effects are superb, with lots of decapitations, human innards, and blood. But it’s the wry style of “The Dead Don’t Die” that dominates. It’s a zombie film that skews expectations by tamping down emotions, treating the extraordinary as routine, and making lethal havoc in a small town look like a series of deadpan sketches. The film is rated R.<br /><br />Bonus materials on the Blu-ray release include 3 very brief featurettes that shed little light on the production process. Twenty chapters are contained for easy access to specific scenes. A Digital code on a paper insert can be found in the case.
