Synopsis

Two friends are invited for a weekend to a luxury island with their boss. The boss gets shot and nobody seems to notice, except for the two friends. In order not to become suspects of murder they treat the body as a puppet and make people believe he's still alive. The killer wants to do his job so when he is informed that the stiff is still alive he's got to shoot him again, and again, and again.

Several people at the "traveling party" that comes to Bernies house are quite drunk, as is his girlfriend when she stops by.

The hot man injects Bernie with drugs to kill him and make it look like an overdose. Also, when Bernie went into th bathroom at the office, was gone a bit and came out, it isn't clear to the two main characters what he was doing, but the audience I think is led to believe he may have been sniffing coke. A party goer comes up to him to get "something he has for her", which is a baggie of drugs, probably coke.

A character is sexually harassed by multiple men at a party. Bernie, the titular dead guy, is sexually assaulted by his girlfriend both when he's alive and post-mortem. In the beginning of the film his girlfriend gropes him, and when he's dead she sleeps with him.

Even without the girlfriend knowing she was sleeping with a dead body, she had sex with a seemingly unconscious man without his consent which is enough reason for concern.
