Aubrey Plaza the Zombie Girlfriend In ‘Life After Beth’
It’s never too late for a second chance at love in Life After Beth (read our review), arriving on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD) and DVD (plus Digital) October 21 from Lionsgate Home Entertainment. Just in time for Halloween, the laugh out loud “zom-rom-com” proves that relationships can always be more challenging, especially when your girlfriend is a zombie.
The film features an all-star comedic cast that includes Aubrey Plaza (TV’s “Parks & Recreation”), Dane DeHaan (The Amazing Spider-Man 2), Molly Shannon (Bad Teacher, TV’s “Saturday Night Live”), Cheryl Hines (HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm”), Paul Reiser (TV’s “Mad About You”), Matthew Gray Gubler (TV’s “Criminal Minds”), and John C. Reilly (Stepbrothers, Chicago). Released theatrically by A24, the film was nominated for the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.
Zach (DeHaan) is devastated after his girlfriend Beth (Plaza) dies unexpectedly. After Beth suddenly and mysteriously returns to life, Zach is overjoyed to have the second chance to prove his love for her. But when Beth starts developing some bizarre tendencies – including a rather disturbing taste for flesh – Zach has to confront the facts. Can love survive among the living dead?
Bonus features include audio commentary with writer/director Jeff Baena and actors Aubrey Plaza, Dane DeHaan and Matthew Gray Gubler, a behind-the-scenes featurette and deleted scenes.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
