I Sell the Dead (DVD, 2010)

Was pleasantly surprised by this film. As a fan of low budget monster and horror films this one exceeded my expatiations. The comedy is dark and considerably more subtle than in 'Shaun Of The Dead' a personal fave of ours. The gore is actually kept to a minimum and in the spirit of true classic horror films, most of the killing is done off screen.

This film has an interesting timeline, it begins with the beheading by guillotine of Willie Grimes, one of the main characters in the story. Then it proceeds to back tell the story from the perspective of Arthur Blake, Willie's apprentice. Including their entry to this field of employment by the Dr. Vernon Quint, who meets a very fitting end with a character that also answers an age old question I have had about vampires. (sorry, no spoilers here!) many more colorful characters are introduced through Arthur's antidotes and it all wraps up into a fun ending that will have you 2nd guessing the outcome.

I ordered this movie from the UK, and it turns out the DVD was made in Mexico and comes with a full color illustrated novel. (in the old days we just called them Comic Books) I'd believed it was made in London judging from the look of it. Watch the making of featurette for the true location, You'll be surprised to discover where it was actually filmed.

All in all, a fun little movie destined to become a Halloween classic in our home.

Saw this on satellite and had to get it for my collection. Two grave robbers out to make a buck (or a crown)encounter some of the craziest characters from aliens to zombies and experience some of the strangest adventures from the graveyard to secluded islands. C'mon, what could ever scare a zombie?? How can you mess with a vampire and still live?? The tongue-in-cheek humor is non-stop and is a must see for any horror fan.

I BOUGHT THIS MOVIE FROM THE REVIEWS I HAD READ ABOUT IT.IT IS A VERY FUN AND ENTERTAINING HORROR MOVIE.IT STARTS OUT AS A GRAVE ROBBING MOVIE AND TURNS INTO A ZOMBIE MOVIE.GOOD SPECIAL EFFECTS AND CAST MAKES IT A HARD TO BEAT LOW BUDGET MOVIE.CHECK IT OUT.

The story starts off a bit slowly and for people accustomed to thunderous action and dazzeling fight scenes, the entire movie drags along with the exception of a few funny scenes with the undead.

To folks introduced to a British sense of humor and slang words through Harry Potter, this movie is an interesting educational piece for those who can pay attention to the details.

im not into funny horror so when there was nothing to watch on tv found this on cable aka dish.. anyway this is a realy good movie!!! is it a keeper? HECK YEA!!!
