7.0Alejandro Brugués’ Juan de los Muertos is an absurd, sharp, and very Cuban twist on the zombie comedy. Like Shaun of the Dead, it mixes slapstick and gore with wit, but here the humor carries a political edge—state TV calls the undead “dissidents,” a sly jab at government rhetoric. Juan’s scheme of charging people to dispose of their infected relatives adds to the absurd charm. The result is a clever blend of social satire and zombie chaos that feels both familiar and refreshingly original.
