Deadman's Barstool

2018 · 74 min

Mary is the conniving wife of a well-known televangelist who goes by the moniker "John the Preacher". Facing divorce with meager financial settlement, she partners with his mistress, Ginny, to rob JP of his cash fortune and split the loot. When they discover him dead from a gunshot wound to the head, their scheme starts to unravel piece by piece. Through a clever cover-up, his murder was ruled a suicide by the NYPD, but a crooked cop has other plans. When their attempt to pay off the detective backfires, a series of events unfold that reveal how the real perpetrators left them all outwitted and put out to pasture. Through a cast of offbeat characters and eccentric cameos, the story of one man's life and death takes twists and turns through the murky glint of a cocktail glass.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Deadman's Barstool is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

Released in 2018, this film holds up just as well today. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
