The Dead Don't Die Jim Jarmusch Tilda Swinton

Writer/director Jim Jarmusch's zombie comedy THE DEAD DON'T DIE will be reaching theatres on June 14th, and while it doesn't come recommended by Arrow in the Head's own Kalyn Corrigan (who gave it a 2/10 review), it does seem like the sort of movie that will find an audience. So today we're sharing a couple clips from the film that give a sample of its tone and humor. Check them out below and see if they appeal to you.

THE DEAD DON'T DIE has a simple synopsis: 

The peaceful town of Centerville finds itself battling a zombie horde as the dead start rising from their graves.

The big draw is the cast, which includes Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Tilda Swinton, Chloë Sevigny, Steve Buscemi, Selena Gomez, RZA, Tom Waits, Danny Glover, Caleb Landry Jones, Rosie Perez, Iggy Pop, Sara Driver, Carol Kane, Austin Butler, and Luka Sabbat.

In these clips we get to see Murray, Driver, and Sevigny interact, and a scene with Gomez and Jones that includes a quick nod to PSYCHO.
