6/10
Enjoyable, but not amazing.

Warning: Spoilers
I recently bought Dead Bodies in a sale in our local DVD store. The DVD cover looked very promising, with quotes as : 'Smarter then Shallow Grave' en 'Won 3 Irish Film Awards'. I never saw Shallow Grave but I assumed that it was a good movie, so I expected a good thriller with an interesting story. Well, Dead Bodies has a interesting story, but it's not very well executed. Furthermore,it could just be me, but I got quite a few laughs out of this movie, so there's a little comedy in it. Dead Bodies is about Tommy and his girlfriend, she's a stupid, whining bitch who, after Tommy and her split up, comes back to live with him. It's not going so well living together, because, well, she's a stupid bitch, so one day they get in a fight and while Tommy runs off, he pushes her aside, and she falls over, hits her head on the table and bleeds to dead. When Tommy gets back he doesn't know what to do. He decides that it's best to bury the body. While doing so, he discovers another body at the same place he buries the body of his girlfriend. And after this, some quite strange events occur. There are some weird twists in this movie, towards the end, but the problem is that the end is not fulfilling. It's not complete, parts are missing, in short, the ending is just weak.

Overall: Dead Bodies is an enjoyable film, but not amazing.
