You're Dead Helen

About This Movie

You're Dead Helen is an interesting blend of comedy and horror, with a decidedly quirky tone. The premise of Maxime living with his ghostly ex, Hélène, sets up an atmosphere that’s both humorous and a bit unsettling. The pacing has moments of genuine tension interspersed with absurdity, which makes the emotional beats land a bit differently. The practical effects are modest yet effective, doing well to illustrate Hélène’s ghostly presence without overshadowing the story. Performances are a mix of charming and awkward, reflecting the odd dynamics of their relationship. It’s distinctive in how it tackles themes of love, grief, and the complications of moving on — not your standard ghost story, that’s for sure.
