As Beth’s behavior becomes increasingly erratic, Zach realizes that something is not quite right and discovers that the resurrected Beth is not quite the same as the girl he once knew.

“Life After Beth” is a unique take on the zombie genre, blending horror and comedy in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. The film explores themes of grief, loss, and the ways in which we hold onto the people we love, even after they are gone. The performances of the cast, particularly Aubrey Plaza, are standout, and the film received positive reviews for its originality and humor.
