Morgue

About This Movie

So, 'Morgue' from 2013 dives deep into some heavy themes of despair and isolation. You've got Lance, who's really coming apart at the seams with his funeral parlor failing and his wife bailing on him. It's raw, you know? His son, Lester, poor kid, is left to navigate this emotional wreckage and finds solace among the dead—quite an unsettling choice, but it reflects the film's dark tone. The pacing is a bit uneven, which can throw you off, but it adds to the sense of unease. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, do enough to enhance the atmosphere. It's distinctive in its exploration of grief and connection, particularly with the dead. There’s something hauntingly compelling about it, albeit not everyone’s cup of tea.
