Over Her Dead Body
Do you believe in ghosts and psychics? It’s “Just Like Heaven” meets the “Ghost Whisperer” as the veterinarian groom-to-be (Paul Rudd), the psychic/caterer new love interest (Lake Bell), and the dead bride-to-be (Eva Longoria Parker) tangle in an odd three way love triangle. Also that “American Pie” guy (Jason Biggs) adds another twist to the mix as the caterer’s assistant. Longoria Parker plays the ghost bitch from hell trying to sabotage her ex’s new romantic relationship (think desperate housewife Gabby from the grave). The film is fairly predictable, but it has some snappy repartee and a few cute surprises. It is basically sitcom material and a chick flick, but it is watchable and entertaining enough.
Alien gives it 2 ½ “moving on” stars out of 4.
