Wake
2009
In this quirky comedy, emotionally detached Carys Reitman (Bijou Phillips) has an unusual way of trying to connect with people when she's down in the dumps: She ventures to a nearby mortuary to attend the funerals of strangers. But after she meets handsome Tyler (Ian Somerhalder) -- at his fiancée's memorial service -- Carys finds herself developing feelings for a living person for the first time. Jane Seymour plays Carys' estranged mother.

I was expecting a more irreverent comedy akin to Dead Like Me, and although the first few minutes had that feel the rest of the movie was a bit more Meet the Parents instead. In the end it was okay, but not great.
