Being human is challenging, and being a ghost is not a cakewalk! Rookie realizes she has only 28 days left before fading away. Makoto, a ghost agent, invites her to team up with the washed-up ghost champion Catherine. Their mission is to revive the legend of haunting ghosts in The Lucky Hotel. In the afterlife, ghosts must be frightening enough to survive. The world after death is far from idyllic. "I don't want to be forgotten by this world!" becomes their final conviction. The ghosts about to sink without trace strive to become the scariest legends. They believe, "As long as you have the talent to scare, you will be seen!"

Tasha Robinson Polygon Hsu frames the biggest action sequences as reality competition shows or prank shows, giving the whole movie an agreeably light, goofy tone that operates at breakneck speed. He steers hard into the comedy side of horror-comedy, but pours on the fake blood. Rated: 82/100 •  Mar 27, 2025 Full Review Katie Rife IndieWire At its heart, Dead Talents Society is an affectionate ode to East Asian horror cinema, and its earnestness -- and silliness -- are key to its appeal. Rated: B+ •  Sep 27, 2024 Full Review

Max W Dead Talents Society uses a novel premise to mirror an alternate reality, blending comedy with horror to tell a surreal fable about the workplace and life. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/06/25 Full Review William S A fantastically off the wall horror comedy with a lot of heart, a great level of world building, and an ending that brings it all together. The humour is smart with its application and it's buckets of blood will sate the appetite of any horror fan without being overly gorey. Highly recommended. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/25 Full Review
