I Sell The Dead Movie Details: DVD, Theatre Date, News, Trailers & More I Sell The Dead Movie Review
9 out of 10 Skulls
Written by: Reaper2113

In an age where movies rely on faulty digital monsters,  predictable plots, realism and marketing it's refreshing for something so unique, evocative and nostalgic like 'I Sell The Dead' to come along. Though this movie isn't gore heavy, it does have this certain spooky charm that we just don't get in modern horror films. I'm not even certain as if one would lable this a horror movie in it's strictest sense but it does have the elements. A macabre tale of two graverobbers and their fortunes and misfortunes during their entaining adventures.

In the mid 1700s (estimated), Arthur Blake sits in his cell and awaits the gallow. He has been commited of murder, and  the despicle act of graverobbing. Father Duffy visits him to record his final words and stories. Although he was innocent of murder, he was infact, guilty of the despicle act of graverobbing. So he tells the tales of how he started his trade, met his mentor and partner, Willie Grimes, a savy grisly fellow who is loyal to the craft of robbing bodies of their graves, and the many ventures he had. Such include the relationship with his client Dr. Vernon Quint, a discontent doctor who demands fresh corpses on his slab so he could solve the mysteries of life.  Spooky outages across the countryside of Ireland (assuming, perhaps Scotland) where they encounter various forms of the undead and supernatural. Then there's their feud with a rival gang of ghouls, The House Of Murphy. Sick and twisted theives of cemetaries, they are ruthless and merciless. Led by the leader Corneillius Murphy, a corpse grinder who can smell the dead miles away.

This movie is just pure brilliance. It's full of dark humor and film noir type atmosphere (such that reminds me of 'The Black Cat' and 'Nosferatu'). I loved the chilly graveyard scenes and the monsters where crafted in excellence. There aren't too many special effects (mainly because none where needed). However there was suberb acting, great plot twists and never lacked in creativity or imagation. It also stars Larry Fessenden (director of Wendigo) as Willie Grimes.

All in all a real fun spookshow that has great review value and memorable moments. If this had a little more exposure I would gurantee you it would be an instant cult classic. Check it out!
