This film tells the story of two friends, who has to face the consequences of their wild night out. The scene is set pretty quickly, and the complicated situation faced by the two main characters are very well portrayed. The story is dark, but the tone of the film is light. The film is funny, but not disrespectful of Dick Long. It is quite a surprising for me to like a dark comedy, and I liked it.

Two slackers trying to cover up the death of a buddy. everything goes wrong. sometimes in life things just cannot be explained. when zeke's wife calls him a coward, she's wrong. but not in the usual way. it's not a great movie, but you certainly will not see what's coming. unusual these days. daniel scheinert, the director/ writer, has a great movie in him.

I really liked the first half of the movie. However the twist completely changes the tone of the movie and it's hard to find it funny. I strongly recommend that the audience DO KNOW the plot before watching it. Spoilers follow. Ok, so the first half is quite funny, sorta like a funnier version of Fargo, set in Alabama. Two dudes accidentally kill the third member of their (absymally awful) rock band. We don't know how they did it, but it's funny watching them try to cover it up, and it's well acted and directed. Then suddenly it becomes a beastiality movie. Yep, these three guys have been regularly having sex with a nearby horse. Somehow they actually got the horse to penetrate their friend and he was fatally ploughed. Although the scene where this is revealed is quite hilarious (and shocking), I didn't find anything to laugh about in the final half of the film. It was well acted, but the lead characters appeared now sad, sick and pathetic, instead of comic. And it's really really unsexy. So I strongly do not recommend you watch this if you want to get laid afterwards.

The reviewer who said the facts were not presented clearly was right on. Unless you want troubling garbage to keep popping up in your thoughts, don't watch this movie.

There is no comedy in this movie. Talking about dark comedy is an overstatement. What a waste of my time.

The four stars are all for the acting and direction, I give it 0 for content since it feels exploitative. I like a dark comedy and am not a prude in any way, but I wish someone had warned me of the content of this film before I saw it. I don't think every story of human (or animal) degradation deserves an audience, and The Death of Dick Long is one I would rather not know about. As an animal lover (and not in that way) I felt broadsided by this film. To discover from previous reviews that the story is based on actual events is more disheartening. The filmmakers draw you in with a little dark humor, giving you the impression that you are in for a Fargo-esque romp, watching some dim-witted men trying to cover up an accident. When the real reasons for the 'accident' come to light the film loses all sense of fair-play, dragging you into a true horror story that even they (the directors, writers) did not seem to know how to handle. From the moment the real plot is exposed no amount of humor or good character can revive the film. In some scenes the small town characters seemed to be equating the men's behavior to homosexuality in the same way that people of a certain ilk used to equate homosexuality with paedophilia. I wasn't altogether sure whether the filmmakers were quietly eluding to it as a misunderstood sexual preference that given time and understanding we would all come to accept, rather than what it actually is; the raping of, or coercing of captive animals into having sex with a different species. Very different than sex between two consenting adult humans. So yeah, given the choice, I would un-see this movie in a heartbeat.

Well we know the premise of this movie basically from the title. Dick dies and only his two best friends and band mates know how it happened, only thing is, they're not talking. I have to admit, I did NOT see that twist coming due to how suspenseful and shrouded in mystery of Dick's death was throughout the majority of this film. Chances are you won't see it either. So just do your best to imagine how 3 low IQ, bumbling, no talent, drunk, high, rednecks act up to when they're left alone to their wild shenanigans. This movie isn't a "comedy" in the sense that there are jokes or any sorts of punchlines. The characters themselves ARE the punchline to a really bad and tasteless joke. There's no slapstick or outright humor to be found, yet it's comedic aspect comes from just how clueless the main character is and how every decision he makes just makes things worse for himself. So it's a weird movie and it's pacing definitely won't be for everyone. I rated it a 6 because while it kept me interested and curious the entire film by the end of it I wished it had gone further with the content. It's equal parts mystery, suspense, and comedy with an answer to a question you just plain aren't expecting but at a relatively slow pace. There's no gag or gross out humor, no nudity, just some occasional swearing.

This was definitely a dark noir comedy but they did it pretty right the twist was a weird shock

This film start with three man(Zeke, Earl and Dick) paying music instrument, smoking and drinking beer, Zeke and Earl dragging the body of Dick and left him at a hospital scene! As turnout, this film is about solving the mystery of the death of Dick! Dick actually kill by a horse effing him! Entire film full of overuse boring conversation! Barely laughable conversation scene is, Zeke's daughter "Cynthia" asking him what is "cocksucker"! He answer his daughter, is a man who suck dick! Barely funny scene is, Zeke push his car into a lake, he tripping and pull Earl into the lake! They fight in the lake and one of them ear get injured! Barely intense scene is, Zeke's wife "Lydia" ask him to leave, he mad and broke a door's window! At the end, Zeke runaway and release the horse from the stall, a female sheriff "Dudley" take him down! After knowing the truth, Zeke release from custody! Lydia back to her father house with Cynthia! That's it! Completely wasting time to watch!
