The Comedy Of Terrors. 1963.

A dishonest funeral director tries to create customers for his failing business with his assistant while living with his wife who can't sing and his ageing father in law.

I don't think I have laughed so much with a Vincent Price movie than this one, Price showing a more comedic side with a dash of horror on how to cut corners with a funeral business.

Tagging along in this Boris Korloff as the old hard of hearing In law, he doesn't have many lines but any scene with him is always great to watch. Joyce Jameson plays the wife who thinks she can be opera singer (have the volume turned down when she sings). Basil Rathbone plays the landlord who can't take the hint on staying dead and Peter Lorre as the funeral assistant who loves opera and can screw up the screw up (if that made sense). Definitely one to watch.
