Image Takes Joe Dante’s Burying the Ex

The director of The HowlingGremlins and The Burbs returns this year with new romantic horror-comedy, Burying the Ex.

Starring Anton Yelchin (the upcoming Green Room), Ashley Greene (Twilight) and Alexandra Daddario (True Detective), Burying the Ex will hit theaters and VOD this summer from Image Entertainment, The Wrap reports.

The film “follows nice guy Max (Yelchin) and his overbearing, but incredibly beautiful girlfriend Evelyn (Greene). Their relationship takes a nosedive after they decide to move in together and Evelyn turns out to be a controlling, manipulative nightmare. Max realizes it’s time to call it quits, but there’s just one problem: he’s too afraid to break up with her. Fate steps in when Evelyn is involved in a freak accident and dies, leaving Max single and ready to mingle. Several weeks later, he has a chance encounter with Olivia (Daddario), a cute and spirited girl who just might be his soulmate. But that same night, Evelyn returns from the grave as a dirt-smeared zombie and she’s determined to live happily ever after with Max.”

Burying the Ex world premiered last summer at the 71st Venice International Film Festival. The film is Dante’s first feature since 2009’s 3-D horror, The Hole. Find a clip from Burying the Ex, below.
