It's a great conceit, a very simple and clever way to explore the shortsightedness and venality of people, particularly those in power. Much of the humor owes a debt to Hitchcock's "The Trouble With Harry," but it would be unfair to dismiss "All Your Dead Ones" as derivative.

It's a beautifully shot film, with a cool visual wit and Álvaro Rodríguez is great as "Crosseyed," using his incredibly expressive face and silent-film-worthy physicality to the role. But much of the humor is torpedoed by atrociously translated subtitles that often require untangling, leaving the viewer a half-beat behind the action. Even the title is a tortured construction in English—"Todos Sus Muertos" may be perfectly reasonable phrase in Spanish, but no American would ever say, "Hey, come get all your dead ones.

"All Your Dead Ones" is very nearly great. With a nip and a tuck, and something other than Google Translate, it could've reached its potential. Anybody up for doing an American version?


Excerpts from an article on Carlos Moreno's feature film "All Your Dead Ones" written by Scott Ross and published in the Popcorn Biz special Sundance edition blog for NBC's www.nbcwashington.com website.
