Ed and His Dead Mother
A mourning son makes a deal to reanimate his one year dead mother, however things turn into an unexpected direction.
Why it matters
A darkly comic blend of zombie horror and offbeat family drama that captures early ’90s indie genre spirit with a twisted heart.
- A cult gem from Jonathan Wacks that mixes gross-out practical effects with genuine emotional beats.
- Perfect for fans of quirky undead tales who appreciate a dash of black comedy alongside the gore.
- Early ’90s indie horror vibes, before the genre’s big studio revival—raw, weird, and unapologetically strange.
- Part zombie resurrection, part dysfunctional family portrait—this one leans into the absurd without losing its bite.
