The Undertaker

About This Movie

So, 'The Undertaker' from 2020 is this curious mix of absurdity and dark humor. Picture a world where death doesn’t exist—František, our mortician, is left grappling with the bizarre implications of his trade. The pacing's a bit offbeat, which fits the tone perfectly, giving you moments of genuine laughter paired with a touch of existential dread. The practical effects are surprisingly well done given the absurd premise. You really feel the weight of an unending life in a world where no one seems to care about dying, which is both funny and unsettling. Performances are quirky, pushing the boundaries of the characters' absurd reality. It's a film that sticks with you, even if it doesn’t neatly fit into any genre box.

This film has had a bit of a rough journey regarding format availability. Limited releases have made it somewhat scarce in physical copies, and collectors seem to have a keen interest, particularly for those into niche comedies. It's not the most mainstream title, but its unique premise certainly appeals to collectors looking for something outside the typical catalog.
