Leave your thoughts about Burying the Ex.
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlDante took what could have been B-movie exploitation, and he turned it into jokes Charlie Sheen would shoot down. |
| NerdistScott WeinbergA Joe Dante movie I didn't like?!? Oh, well. It was bound to happen at least once. |
| Film School RejectsRob HunterFirst, the bad news. This is Joe Dante's worst film. There is no good news. |
| AV ClubIgnatiy VishnevetskyIn spite of its modest running time, Burying The Ex feels stretched thin; it takes a good 35 minutes to get going, only kicking into gear once Evelyn returns from the dead. |
| New England Movies WeeklyDaniel M. Kimmel[Director Joe Dante's] latest film... hearkens back to his very early work. This is a cheesy, modestly budgeted horror comedy that should find its niche audience. |
| CinemaBlendNick VenablePays its respect to the genre and is ideal for a drive-in experience where the popcorn butter flows like blood. |
| Newark Star-LedgerStephen WhittyDante has always been at least as much of a comedian as a monster fan, and the film has plenty of gruesome dark humor about embalming fluid and rigor mortis. |
| FILMINK (Australia)John NoonanJoe Dante has gifted the world great cinematic treats, such as creature feature Gremlins, sci-fi comedy adventure Innerspace, and the love letter to the cinema, Matinee. Alas, Burying the Ex will not be thought of with such reverence in the future. |
| TheFrightFile.comDustin Putman"Burying the Ex" may not be a breakthrough along the lines of "Gremlins," but it is a cheerily macabre lark and a welcome fresh entry to Dante's oeuvre. |
| Blu-ray.comBrian Orndorf"Burying the Ex" is hilarious, icky, and smartly made, reinforcing Dante's gifts as a storyteller and his endearing appreciation for shock value and uncomfortable laughs. |
