My Boyfriend's Back

By DAVID WEINER

January 31, 2013

This overlooked early '90s entry spoofs the '80s high school romantic comedy genre, telling the story of Johnny Dingle (Andrew Lowery), a daydreaming teen in love with his classmate, Missy McCloud (Traci Lind). While trying to thwart a robbery at the shop where Missy works, he's killed – but won't let a little thing like death stop him from going on a date! The only catch? He feels great, but his body is slowly decomposing and literally falling apart to comic effect. Directed by Bob Balaban, the film boasts early performances by Matthew Fox, Matthew McConaughey and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
