King Kong and After.Life

Christina Ricci posed for this publicity picture as Ann Darrow from King Kong (complete with her seated in a giant ape hand) several years ago. If I recall correctly, this was the cover of a magazine, but I don't remember which. I had the magazine, but lost it. Now I've found this picture again, and that makes me happy.

Here are some stills of Ricci from a movie called After.Life. She actually plays a dead woman in a morgue who refuses to lay down and die--literally.

Liam Neeson co-stars as a mortician who tries to explain the situation to her.

But Ricci's character refuses to listen, instead roaming around the mortuary barefoot and clad only in a scant red dress. After.Life isn't a flat-out horror film, but it's just enough of a darker shade of a fantasy to be enjoyed around Halloween.
