Despite a script by Richard Matheson and a host of aging but classic actors, this falls flat from start to finish. The main problem is Price, whose character is not only unlikable, but uninteresting. Karloff is wasted, Lorre is somewhat endearing, but could play this part in this sleep. At least Rathbone gets to recite Macbeth. Orangey (aka Rhubarb) the cat gives the best performance, though Joyce Jameson deserves some credit for being willing to make a complete fool out of herself singing--although I'm sure some of the screeching was dubbed in. Save your precious 90 minutes for something else. Only watch this if you are trying to extend your life, since it seems twice as long as it actually is. ( )

A broke undertaker murders for business.

2/4 (Indifferent)

It's clearly meant to be madcap silliness, but it just comes across as bitter and tired (literally tired, as in the cast needs a nap).
