Can it be argued that, Weekend At Bernie's 2 is a Voodoo Zombie movie, and not merely just a comedy?
Before immediately registering on this website to cue up some rapid hate mail responses. Watch the trailer, provided for you right here...
All the elements are there:
- Bernie is Dead
- Bernie is up and walking around...but still, dead
- Bernie has risen due to voodoo
- Tropical island setting
- Impervious to pain and traditional pain infliction
- Has no trouble existing under water(doesn't need to breathe)
Also, come on, Tery Kiser's performance as the living dead Bernie Lowmax must be considered one of the best performances by an actor portraying a member of the Living Dead in the history of film. He was pretty convincing as a dead guy.
So what do you guys think? Is my premise plausible?
Should we all hold out for....
Weekend At Bernies III: Bernie gets HUNGRY!

I have to say Weekend at Bernie's is one of my fav's. #2 cracked me up too! Brilliant way to continue the series! Man, I don't know how he played that part but was the most brilliant acting without dialogue ever.
Great post Mike!! I love the tongue-in-cheek kind of humor here, and ya actually make a helluva case for WEEKEND AT BERNIE'S being a voodoo zombie flick!!
Nice job!!
