In 1978, with the second part of his zombie trilogy. George A. Romero He refers to a rather trivial matter, that is, after the dead have been removed, some families welcome them and keep them, treating them as if they were relatives who had previously lived in them. the body that is now damaged. Rest in peace also part of this idea.

Based on the original novel about John Avid Lindqvistthe film presents three parallel plots, in which the actors encounter the shadowy situation of the awakening of relatives who have just died and welcome them back to their home, without understanding the new nature of being they have introduced into the house they.

As he did with his most popular novels, Let me come in, Lindqvist reinterprets the genre in a social and objective key, although accepting the internal characteristics of the fantastic component.

Rest in peace It’s not a zombie apocalypse like the one we’re used to seeing, especially in recent times, in movies or television. It is instead a reality on how our society (or more importantly, Norwegian society) assimilates the theme of loss, of death. We can even see a connection with the theme of euthanasia, since the protagonists are people who refuse to let their relatives die, although it is clear that the people who went there are not here and they will not back, leaving only one. the body is damaged.

The film shows three stories with three different perspectives: that of a mother who lost her child, an old woman who has just said goodbye to her partner, and a father and two children who see how the mother cannot overcome a car accident. . More on a narrative level, the film moves more towards meditation, with a slow pace, difficult to follow for a viewer alien to the emotional cold harmony of northern cultures.

Despite the connection of these three stories, the truth is that what the film says is not small, which puts most of the pictures in the picture full of the fullness, of the feeling that is in it, but where elements like sound If a fly speaks of pain, discomfort or grief

Beautiful in its austerity, it is true that in traditional culture its characters may seem strange to us and it is difficult to empathize with their behavior. However, it seems to us that the film manages to navigate the area that has been hackneyed and entered soon, without falling into common places.
