Finally, suicide is funny. In the most hilarious derivative of emo-kid indulgence since the ‘It’s down the road not across the street’ t-shirt, Patrick Fugit (of Almost Famous fame) plays Zia, a fairly happy kid who kills himself after a melodramatic breakup and suddenly finds himself in a bleak world exactly like the one he left - except that it’s populated entirely by the spirits of discontented suicide victims. Oh - and love. Seriously.
The fantasically funny film comfortably straddles a line somewhere between Dogma’s irreverence and Dazed & Confused’s pointless charm. If you’re fortunate enough to be in a limited release area, see this film.
