Obituary
"To live, she writes. To write, she kills..."
Overview
When Elvira’s editor informs her that she will be paid per article, she begins murdering people to avoid going broke. Her plans are shaken when she falls for the crime reporter.
Obituary sits at the intersection of dark comedy and crime drama. The series centers on a writer navigating the financial pressures of the gig economy by turning her beat into a series of calculated homicides. It is a cynical take on journalistic ambition where moral lines are redrawn to ensure the rent gets paid.
Siobhán Cullen plays the lead with a stoic detachment that keeps the morbid premises grounded. The tension shifts when a new arrival threatens to complicate her routine, turning a professional task into a personal entanglement. The result is a sharp, dry look at how far someone will go to keep their career afloat, even when that career requires a high body count.
