Dead Dad (2020) is a quirky blend of comedy and horror that explores the bizarre dynamics of a family trying to cope with death during quarantine. The tone is a strange mix of dark humor and poignant moments, really capturing that awkwardness of grief. The atmosphere has this offbeat charm, with practical effects that lean more towards the absurd than the terrifying, which gives it a unique edge. Performances are genuinely heartfelt, with an undertone of absurdity that makes the characters relatable yet eccentric. The pacing meanders a bit, reflecting the stasis of the family's situation, but it all comes together in a way that feels refreshingly original, standing out in a sea of typical genre fare.
