Oscar®-winning actress Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn star with Bruce Willis in Robert Zemeckis' outrageously entertaining comedy about greed, vanity, sex, immortality, life... and death. Isabella Rossellini is a beautiful enchantress who changes their lives - and deaths - forever in this hilarious dark comedy with ground-breaking special effects that the Chicago Tribune calls "diabolically inventive."

Critics Consensus: Hawn and Streep are as fabulous as Death Becomes Her's innovative special effects; Zemeckis' satire, on the other hand, is as hollow as the world it mocks.

Streep, Hawn comically, murderously defy age and death.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that Death Becomes Her is a 1992 macabre comedy about a deadly threesome: two vain female frenemies and the man whose life they jointly ruined. Excessive drinking is shown. So is a potion that brings back youth but also bestows immortality, which, it turns out, isn't as fun as it sounds. Language includes "s--t," "t-ts," and "bitch." A woman has an affair with a younger man, who is cheating on her. Bare buttocks are seen for a few seconds. Impotence is discussed. Violence is played for comedy. A man and woman plot to kill someone. A man chokes a woman, then lets her fall down a long flight of stairs.
