Dead Talents Society

Being human is challenging, but being dead is just as difficult. When you die, you have 30 days to prove you can make it as a ghost, or you fade away into oblivion. Recently dead, Newbie is invited to team up with a washed-up celebrity ghost to help revive an out-of-date hotel haunting. But when the team finds themselves locked in a bitter battle against a media-savvy upstart, they have no choice but to beat the odds and become the most terrifying legends they can.
Certainly the most creative concept for a film in a long time, it’s also one of the funniest we’ve seen this year. As the dead underdogs deploy their back catalogue of Asian horror stereotypes, what unfolds is a brilliant, clever, and somehow touching parody. Guaranteed to be an audience favourite, it’s the perfect film to close this year’s festival.
