Holy Crap. Dick is dead. Died last night after band practice, and his bandmates, Zeke & Earl (Michael Abbott, Jr. & Andre Hyland), don’t want anybody finding out how. That’s too bad though, ‘cause news travels fast in small town Alabama, and these guys suck at covering their tracks. The authorities haven’t ID’d the body just yet, but Zeke’s wife (TFF 2016 alum Virginia Newcomb) and his daughter are suspicious already.
From a screenplay by Billy Chew, director Daniel Scheinert (one half of the Swiss Army Man duo known as Daniels) expertly balances the hilarity and heartache of what happens when dark secrets are dragged kicking and screaming into the light.

Playing out like a demented Nickelback-version of Fargo, so begins the most incompetent criminal coverup of all time.Matt Oakes, Silver Screen Riot
For a film with an immature title, The Death of Dick Long has to be one of the smartest and funniest comedies of the year.Rendy Jones, Rendy Reviews
The Death of Dick Long might easily be the most bizarre film of the year, but it's also one of the funniest. It will leave many viewers flabbergasted, disturbed and asking themselves, 'What did I just watch?!'Alexia Amoriello, Film Inquiry
