SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

"Drop Dead Sexy" is a very well written, drop dead funny, black comedy. Crispin Glover steals the movie as Eddie, a gravedigger who obviously is proud of his work. On the surface a blackmail scheme that goes badly, but beneath the obvious are some treasured moments of very dark comedy. This is way beyond a "Weekend at Bernies" clone, more like a cross between "Mortuary Academy" and "Fargo". In other words, outrageous enough for instant "cult status". The character development is very good, and even the bad guys are likable. The script is tight, clever, and hilarious. Throw in ample nudity, a necrophilia subplot, and you have a film "Paul Bartel" would have been proud of. - MERK

I got it today and enjoyed it quite a bit. I admit, I was only in it for the Crispin, but unlike "My Tutor" or "Like Mike" I can re-watch this without cringing. It was very cute, and despite the strippers and implied necrophilia just had a sort of happy, carefree feel to it I rather liked. It's not dense, it's not trying to freak you out, really - the two guys are so dimwitted and innocent about the horrid things they're doing, you can't really be grossed out. Especially Crispin, who manages to make a mentally subnormal, alcoholic guy who falls in love with a corpse into a likable character.Also, whoever decided to have Mr. Glover play some scenes in his boxer briefs deserves a handful of jellybeans. The man is GORGEOUS. Laying next to him in bed would be enough to bring me back from the dead, too.

It seems like Drop Dead Sexy started out with an interesting idea for a dark comedy, but ran aground somewhere in the writing process. The plot holes, awkward characters, and rather thin resolution make me wonder if money ran out somewhere along the way and the script was hastily finished and/or doctored up to get the movie released quickly.Jason Lee is surprisingly flat as the main character. I am guessing the problem is, again, more in the writing than the actor since Lee is doing a great job playing another hapless loser in My Name Is Earl. Crispin Glover was probably the only consistently funny character in the movie (and, I must admit, the reason I checked it out in the first place). His innate awkwardness lends a special humor to a role that could have otherwise been played as the naive idiot sidekick.Drop Dead Sexy isn't without its funny moments, most coming from the interactions between Lee and Glover, but it does suffer from lowbrow humor (e.g. the running joke about a gay biker named Tiny) that actually feels like an afterthought. In better hands this could have been a great dark comedy and possibly a cult classic, but instead it will probably languish as a trashy comedy stuck next to Dorm Daze in the local Blockbuster.

This film is definitely not for the faint of heart because it goes into some necrophiliac moments. A few people walked out on the film because of the material, but it was all in good fun. Although Jason Lee and Crispin Glover couldn't make it to the premier it was still an experience i will remember. This movie has it's really laugh out loud moments and also it's really stupid pen dropping scenes. But overall, i enjoyed it, this is a treat for Crispin glover fans because he does such a great job with his character that his lines really heighten the comedy. To conclude this comment, i just have to say this one is probably more of a rental. I'm giving it a 6.4 of ten. Only because i love all Jason Lee movies.
