7/10
Very funny black comedy.
10 March 2023
When business becomes very slow for an undertaker, he and his assistant go to extraordinary lengths to drum up some business.

What a wonderful black comedy this is, it combines a Horror vibe, with a mix of comedy styles, slapstick, wit and some very dry humour.

It's incredibly atmospheric, it really does look like a hammer horror from the time, the opening sequences at the graveyard are suitably murky, that theme continues through incredibly well.

What an amazing wealth of talent is on display here to enjoy, you have Price, Karloff, Lore and Rathbone.

I loved the cat, it seemed to have some wonderful timing.

Outrageous at times, this truly was a fun watch, I can't believe I'd never seen it before today.

7/10.
