‘We Bury the Dead’ Review: A Zombie Film That’s Most Alive in Its Quietest Moments
I always get a bit uneasy around zombie movies that seem to relish killing zombies. There are exceptions like “Zombieland,” but too often the genre feels completely indifferent to the idea that the undead used to be people. Instead, they only exist as enemies to be slaughtered, the only difference between them and other faceless foes, like aliens or robots, being that zombies are human-shaped. Thankfully, “We Bury the Dead” is a movie that leans into the sense of loss and grief that zombies can represent.
