Dead & Breakfast

2004 ·1h 28m · ★ 5.5 (108)

Six friends on a road trip stop for the night at a bed and breakfast in the sleepy town of Lovelock. After a night that leaves both the inn's owner and chef dead, the gang finds themselves under suspicion by the local sheriff. But that's only the beginning as nearly all of the town's quirky residents become possessed by an evil spirit and pin down the friends inside the B&B.

Why it matters

Dead & Breakfast serves up a quirky, blood-soaked mashup of small-town charm and demonic mayhem, mixing cabin fever horror with comedy that leans into its own campy charms.

  • A cult favorite blending zombie curse vibes with slapstick gore and dark humor—think Evil Dead meets Shaun of the Dead.
  • Practical effects by KNB EFX Group deliver gooey, gooey carnage that still holds up two decades on.
  • Perfect for fans who dig horror-comedy hybrids that don’t take themselves seriously but respect the genre’s splatter roots.
  • The offbeat ensemble cast and eccentric Lovelock townsfolk add a playful, unpredictable energy to the claustrophobic, possessed-B&B setting.
