Life After Beth starts feeling more conventional the wilder and darker it gets.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
Rotten
Once it's safely slotted in the overworked zom-com genre, there's no reason to keep watching.
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader
Rotten
Baena co-wrote "I Heart Huckabees" and while he has a sense of humor, the jokes here tend to be meager and tend to dribble on.
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
Rotten
While Baena tries to offer a reworking of zombie mythology - easy-listening music makes them horny and they have a fascination with attics and smearing dirt on walls - the movie doesn't live up to the promise of its dark start.
