Night Life (1989 film)

Night Life is a 1989 American zombie comedy film directed by David Acomba and starring Scott Grimes, John Astin, and Cheryl Pollak.

While Archie is wallowing in his depression he receives a phone call from Verlin offering him one last chance at his job if he can help him transport and ready four corpses at once; the bodies of John, Rog, Roberta, and Joanie who were just killed in a car accident.

Soon after, the boyfriend and eventually Uncle Verlin who attempted to punish the teens for breaking into the mortuary despite Archie's warnings are killed along with a couple of police officers who stop the zombies for speeding.

Writing in The Zombie Movie Encyclopedia, academic Peter Dendle called the film "a routine and laborious living-dead exercise".
