Mixing genre makes things more interesting, which is why comedy-horrors are so popular.
Netflixs new comedy-horrorAll My Friends Are Deadis Polish, though it is dubbed in English.
Most importantly, it has all 4 elements of a good comedy-horror.
All My Friends Are Dead/Netflix
A good comedy-horror comes up with the craziest way to die.
The best thing to relieve tension in any situation is humor.
In comedy-horrors, the humor lies in the dialogue as well as the actions of the characters.
The main comedic relief inAll My Friends Are Deadis Jacques, a Mormon missionary from France.
Mormons are not exactly known for their humorous behavior, but Jacque is quite the exception.
He ends up drinking, doing drugs, and having sex for the first time.
All of this leads to him meeting Jesus (no really, Jesus shows up).
His goofy naivety beautifully counteracts the death and destruction that surround him.
Another, uh, release from the pent-up anxiety of a scary movie is some sex.
Why are people always horny when theyre about to die?
ButAll My Friends Are Deadis no different.
You know what they say, when life hands you mass murder, make some sweet sweet love.
Happy is a relative term here.
They throw a beautiful wedding, and they have the party of their dreams.
