"I'm afraid, madam, he has made his final journey, across the stygian shore."Trumbull (Vincent Price) has many problems to attend to as he runs a funeral parlour. From a senile father in law (Boris Karloff) to incompetent employees (Peter Lorre), but his biggest problem is his lack of customers. A problem that jumps to the top of the list when he is sent a demand for his back rent. Trumbull has to find some customers to pay his bills and quick. Then he hits on the perfect way...why wait till they die of old age, when he can help them get there quicker!
Tourneur visits the Poe genre that Corman and AIP had been plundering, this time to ham it up and parody them. A job well done by the wonderful cast.
