The Secret Lives of Zombie Wives is an unhinged horror tale at the perfect intersection of trad wives and girl dinners, where Shaun of the Dead meets Martha Stewart.
Patricia is a reformed zombie.
She’s also an influencer—the wholesome, homey, traditional values kind—a career built up with the help of her husband, Ralph. Cooking, shopping, and hanging out with her friends; most days, it’s easy to forget she’s even dead, so long as she takes her antifungal medication. But when a zombie horde starts approaching her fenced community, Patricia comes face to face with memories of an era of her life she thought she’d left behind.
Perhaps life with overbearing Ralph isn’t quite as perfect as she’d hoped, and maybe everyone kind of has the wrong idea about the zombie horde—they’re not frightening, they’re beautiful to Patricia, and they prompt her to embrace her true, authentic self.
Unfortunately for Ralph, this involves eating his brain on livestream.
