Weekend at Bernie’s

Bernie would be the perfect host, except for one small thing… he’s dead. Now, he’s the life of the party.

Weekend at Bernie’s (1989) follows two insurance employees who discover that their wealthy boss has been murdered, but to maintain appearances, they pretend he is still alive during a weekend at his oceanfront mansion. As they manipulate his corpse to avoid suspicion from mobsters and party guests, increasingly absurd and dangerous situations unfold. This dark comedy blends slapstick humor and farcical situations in a macabre study of deception and opportunism.
