Episode 578 - We Bury the Dead

WARNING: We do delve into spoilers. This week we are discussing We Bury the Dead (2024...2026). After a catastrophic military accident devastates Tasmania and leaves the dead mysteriously reanimating, Ava (Daisy Ridley) joins a body retrieval unit in a desperate search for her missing husband. What begins as a post-apocalyptic survival story quickly evolves into a haunting exploration of grief, closure, and the emotional baggage we carry long after loss. We discuss the film's themes of unfinished business, the unusual behavior of its undead, and whether the ending delivers a satisfying payoff. Does We Bury the Dead offer something fresh in the zombie genre, or does its slower, more contemplative approach leave too much buried beneath the surface?
