Oh my God, I loved it. From the very first scene I knew I was in for something great — and Over Your Dead Body delivered from start to finish.
Director Jorma Taccone — one-third of The Lonely Island comedy trio behind MacGruber and Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping — makes a wild pivot into dark thriller territory here, and it works. His comedy instincts are baked into every scene, even the brutal ones. There is anger, violence, love, hate, and heart all wrapped up in this film. What’s impressive is how seamlessly it balances all of that — the comedy never undercuts the tension, and the darker moments never kill the fun. It’s a tightrope walk that most movies don’t pull off, and this one sticks the landing.

Jason Segel and Samara Weaving as Dan and Lisa acted this to perfection. If you know Samara Weaving from Ready or Not, just know she’s found her lane and she owns it. The supporting cast was the icing on the cake. Timothy Olyphant and Juliette Lewis were outrageous — they absolutely nailed it. If you know Olyphant from Justified, you already know he was born to play a character like this. He’s got that effortless dangerous-funny thing down cold. And Juliette Lewis is unhinged in the best possible way — she’s been playing wildly unpredictable women since Cape Fear and she hasn’t lost a step.
And let’s not forget Dan’s dad — Paul Guilfoyle plays the role in a way you absolutely won’t see coming. He was a scene-stealer. The action sequences are something else — brutal, funny, and wildly choreographed. There are some massive gore and kill shots that will have you covering your eyes one second and laughing the next. It’s rated R for a reason, so consider yourself warned. Turns out the stunt team behind John Wick and Bullet Train was involved, and it absolutely shows.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Single best investment
By and far best investment Ive made. I used to drive my husband nuts because Id be a fidgeting mess the last half hour of the movie trying not to miss important parts. Now I just turn this app on and *bam* I can actually focus on the movie the whole time. Even puts alerts to my watch so even better. Also I can guarentee all the 5 reviews arent fake as one person accused - its just that so many of us movie-goers had the same problem and this fixed it. Yes, it is paid but jeeze its expensive to keep watching movies and updating an app for every movie. And if you read more about the creator he mentions he has several people contributing - so yeah its paid but omg worth every cent. 10/10

Plot
A dysfunctional couple head to a remote cabin to “reconnect”, but each has secret intentions to kill the other.
RunPee.com owes RunPee Sis a huge debt of gratitude. She sees any movie needed with no complaints and has done so for ten years (even basing Thanksgiving and Christmas family festivities around the seeing films). In 2015 Sis ran the entire RunPee enterprise herself, while RunPee Dan, Jilly and Mom went traipsing off to Europe. Sis is the spider in the web holding the RunPee family together — besides being a funny, well rounded person, and a joyous pleasure to be around. Her favorite films start and end with horror (which thank goodness she’s happy to see, since most of us don’t have the stomach for it) — but also likes silly comedies, sad dramas, and musicals of all types. If you’ve used a Peetime for a scary film, you probably have RunPee Sis to thank for it.
Favorite movie genre: Horror, horror, and more horror. The more disturbing, the better. Period.
