Alberto is dead and can no longer hide it. Make-up and perfume can no longer conceal his quickly decomposing body. Dismayed, he decides to withdraw from the world.
"It is the feature film debut of filmmaker Sebastián Hofmann, who would later direct the also macabre 'Time Share'. With 'Halley', the co-writer also gives an interesting contemplative twist to the premise of zombies, through a character that literally exists as a dead man alive. The photography, sound design and makeup (the latter deserving the Ariel Award) emphasize body horror and show us with certain beauty the gradual process of decomposition of the protagonist. In short, it is not a movie that will be enjoyed by everyone (especially those who expect a more traditional approach to zombies), but it cannot be denied that it has a unique approach to existential anxiety."
