Synopsis

A fledgling rock band on the verge of being discovered make a discovery of their own: a magical ancient amulet that gives them the power to see ghosts – whether they want to or not. Slightly deterred from fame by their newfound responsibility of helping an endless parade of desperate, and sometimes angry, apparitions resolve their unfinished business, the band begrudgingly intertwines their desire for rock and roll success with the lifelong gig of ushering the dead to the other side.

Pluskylang Great Film overall
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The_nibs I friggin loved this show! It made its debut in Canada on YTV's "Dark Corner" (a few hours of shows pertaining to the paranormal, most of them horribly faked). Much like YTV's Dark Corner, Dead Last was short lived and unfortunately the only episodes made repeated for a few months afterward and were eventually pulled off the air. I managed to record a few of the episodes but over the last few years they've succumbed to damage or some jagoff has taped over them. I'm stuck with the pilot, and I want more. It's sad to think that if the show had been put out a year later maybe it would've had a stronger response; after all that is when pop-punk hit it's peak and spawned a fresh batch of poseur tweens who, without a doubt, would've taken to the idea of an indie rock band battling the "Unseen". So hardcore. Then again I'm thankful it came out when it did because I'm sure those damn kids and their eyeliner would've ruined it for the rest of us.I found the show was well written and had a delightful sense of humor. You'll love it even if you're not that into ghosts. The characters were phenomenal, but of course it had the right cast to pull it off. I don't want to think of Tyler Labine as anyone but Scotty, and I just don't see enough of Kett Turton these days. There is a petition online to put the show on DVD (although I know most of us would rather them make more episodes)
Kelly84 Dead Last I can say defiantly made an impression from the moment I accidentally channel flicked onto it. This show really was one that stood out because there was a playful banter between the characters, even with the dead folk. It's not everyday you can come across a show that has all the elements of brilliance.From script to the acting, Dead Last, is one of the finest TV moments I've lived through. Luckily after viewing the pilot, I had an obsession to tape the following 12 episodes just so I could have them forever!QUOTE: Vaughn being attacked, almost killed by Nate in the sandwich diner."I don't wanna be next...I wanna be last!" ... We wish it did last!
genyphor I enjoy watching a range of lower budget films and television series'. It's a hobby of mine. What I've found is that although they lack flash, many times they have good content. Either you learn something, or you enjoy the story - as quirky as that story may be. This is one of those shows. A little off the beaten path, well,a lot off the beaten path, but hey, it's D.V. DeVincentis and Pink, what do you expect? Originally trendy, but not everlastingly classic.
slstrongarm Being a "Sixth Sense" fan, I admit I was intrigued--especially by the rock band angle-- but I stopped watching after three episodes. I mean, how many times can you use the "Who are you talking to?" line and make it sound original? Why did they never think to keep their voices down and maintain some semblance like there's nobody there? Or at least pretend like they're talking to somebody on a cell phone? Did they truly think that everybody else could see the ghosts? Wouldn't they think that to everybody else, they look like total idiots, speaking to the air?I wished that the Problem band members might use their experiences as inspiration for songs to play at the end of episodes. I think that would have been a nice wrapup.The premise of this series might seem fresh, but the aired product falls short.
