Us is a plural subject, so I believe are is correct.

think of the positive version of the sentence and it becomes more obvious it should be is:

“Either of us is going”

Or, to further stress the point, turn it into a question:

“Is either of us going?”

The subject is not us, it’s “either of us”, which is singular

Problem is: “Are either of us going” sounds right too.

Either is not always singular - Either the Red Sox or the Yankees are going to win tonight, not Either the Red Sox or the Yankees is going to win.

Translation:
[Death] What does that mean, resurrected? I’m traveling the long way here, and now something like this.

[Guy in bed] I think that’s outrageous too.

Someone overhearing this now knows that if they reach a Halloween party, they will be briefly immortal.
