Over Your Dead Body (2026): "If You Like Piña Coladas"

About this episode

The episode discusses the film 'Over Your Dead Body' and its themes of love and hate within a comedic horror context.

What's worse, Spookies: Cheating on your husband or spiritually cheating at Scrabble? In Over Your Dead Body (2026), Samara Weaving and Jason Segel put that philosophical question to the test as they play a married couple tight-rope walking the fine line between love and hate. A remake of a Norwegian film known internationally as The Trip, Jorma Taccone's newest project is a black comedy that amps up the gasps and the gore and adds an A-list cast for flavor. On a new Spooky Tuesday, we're heading out for a weekend by the lake as we break down American adaptations, surprising pop culture references, and that shocking basement scene.  References: https://bloody-disgusting.com/interviews/3946980/over-your-dead-bodys-director-interview/ https://www.flickeringmyth.com/action-comedy-and-comedy-action-over-your-dead-body-director-jorma-taccone-interview/ https://mamasgeeky.com/2026/04/over-your-dead-body-jorma-taccone.html https://cinemadailyus.com/interviews/over-your-dead-body-interview-with-director-jorma-taccone/
