Default Weekly Comp - I Sell The Dead! - 23/10/09

HI THERE!

So it's friday! The start of the weekend (well nearly ) and what better way to start the end of the week with another weekly comp!

And what an excellent prize we have today! The last film in our little 'zombie trilogy' is the superb Hammer-esque I SELL THE DEAD (check out my review in the blogs I did a while back for more info)

Speaking of which...here's some more info!

Certificate: 18
Running time:
Price: £15.99 (DVD)/£24.99 (Blu-Ray)

"A JAUNTILY GOTHIC PERIOD SPOOK STORY… SMART, GRUESOME AND INVENTIVE…" – FILM MONTHLY



Winner of the Best Independent Feature Award at Toronto's After Dark Film Festival, the horror-comedy I SELL THE DEAD is a witty, affectionate and beautifully envisioned homage to the bloody, fog-bound classic horror films produced by Amicus and Hammer during the 1950s and 60s.

The debut feature from writer-director Glenn McQuaid, the film stars Dominic Monaghan (X-Men Origins: Wolverine; Lost; The Lord Of The Rings trilogy), Ron Perlman (Hellboy II: The Golden Army; Outlander), Angus Scrimm (Alias; the Phantasm films) and actor-director Larry Fessenden (The Last Winter, Wendigo) in the comically macabre tale of Arthur Blake (Monaghan) and Willie Grimes (Fessenden), two bumbling grave robbers whose exploits involving both the dead and the undead prove to be their undoing.

It is the 18th Century and the long arm of the law has finally reached out and caught hold of grave robbers Arthur Blake and his mentor Willie Grimes. On the eve of his execution by guillotine for his body-snatching crimes, young Blake decides to tell his story to the local priest, Father Duffy (Perlman), who has come to visit him in his cell. Recounting the dark tale of his fifteen years in the ghoul business, Blake recalls how he first met and became partners with seasoned grave robber Willie Grimes and how they came to be the chief suppliers of fresh corpses to the fiendish Dr. Vernon Quint (Scrimm). The pair's grisly adventures eventually see them becoming involved in a feud with a rival gang of grave robbers, the notorious Murphy family, and discovering that there is one branch of their business even more lucrative than selling the dead: selling the undead. But finding, capturing and delivering vampires, zombies and other creatures of the night prove to be far more difficult tasks than they first imagined.

"Hammeresque shivers give way to Abbot and Costello-style slapstick" (New York Times) as Blake and Grimes stumble from one chilling encounter to the next in McQuaid's hugely atmospheric and very funny horror-comedy romp.

I SELL THE DEAD (cert. tbc) will be released on DVD (£15.99) by Anchor Bay Entertainment on 19th October 2009 and on Blu-ray (£24.99) on 2nd November 2009. Special Features include: audio commentary by director Glenn McQuaid; audio commentary by stars Dominic Monaghan and Lerry Fessenden; The making of I Sell The Dead featurette; I Sell The Dead visual effects.
