We continue our series going through the entire catalog of A24's films. On this episode we are looking at 2014's Life After Beth directed by Jeff Baena. The film is a story about a young man given a second chance at love when his recently deceased girlfriend comes back to life as a zombie. The film stars Aubrey Plaza, Dane De Haan, John C. Reilly, Molly Shannon and Anna Kendrick. This is a special episode as it is a cross over show with Jeff and Pierre from Classic Movies Live coming on to guest, while Rachel and Dakota joined their show to talk about The Voices. The reason for this super special cross over is Classic Movies Live has been doing a series called Kickin' It With Kendrick, a deep dive into the filmography of Anna Kendrick who stars in both Life After Beth and The Voices.
Our double bill pairings include Young Frankenstein (Dakota), Pet Sematary (Rachel) The Voices (Jeff) and Ingrid Goes West (Pierre). Check out all previous Double Bill Pairings on Letterboxd.
