"I did it for love."
A film based loosely on the true story of Burke and Hare (Simon Pegg & Andy Serkis), who found a lucrative business supplying bodies to Dr Knox (Tom Wilkinson) for his disection classes in 19th Century Edinburgh. Unfortunately they soon find their supplies running low, and have to rectify the situation as best they can.
A gem of an idea, that unfortunately is only partially successful in its attempt to find comedy in the horror of body snatching and murder. Packed full of British comedy talent and featuring cameo's from the likes of Christopher Lee.
