Over Her Dead Body Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This film has a good premise to generate comedic material - as Kate (Eva Longoria is about to marry her fiance (Paul Rudd) she is crushed to death by a falling ice angel sculpture... and she returns to haunt/harrass the psychic who begins to fall into a romance with him. Add to that the gay? catering business partner of the psychic medium (played by Jason Biggs) and there's a number of pretty funny scenes and plot twists. Although the plot seemed clever, Eva Longoria's character seemed to weaken the film - she seemed rather one-dimensional and stuck on auto-pilot in that role. The remainder of the cast seemed to get into their characters pretty well and the film was well-paced and fun... I personally like supernatural elements in films and this one has that as key to its premise... there's a particularly funny scene where the medium goes to a Catholic priest to ask for help in "getting rid of" the ghost and another scene where the ghost puts on a threatening, demonic pose a la The Exorcist to attempt to scare the medium away from the surviving fiance. If you like a somewhat cliched but still clever romantic ghost comedy you'll likely want to see this film.

Eva Longoria Parker (TVs Desperate Housewives) stars in this devilishly funny romantic comedy about holding onto the ones you love...even after youre gone. When Kate (Longoria Parker) is killed by an ice sculpture on her wedding day, her fiancé Henry (Paul Rudd, Knocked Up) gives up on romance until he falls for the beautiful psychic (Lake Bell, TVs Boston Legal) whos supposed to be helping him move on. But Kates not having it, and shes going to do whatever it takes to send their budding relationship six-feet-under.
