User:banzaidog on Sat, 30 Jun 2007 04:00:55 +0000<br><br>Despite its low budget (and no-name cast), Funeral Home is a pretty creepy mystery/suspense movie. No big surprises, but a lot of effective atmosphere. You won't be checking your watch every five minutes, either.

If you are looking for another "chop up the teenagers" movie, go someplace else.But if you want a solid little "B" suspenser, go for it.

Just stay out of the basement!<br><br><hr>User:capt.hero on Sun, 29 Nov 2009 20:07:08 +0000<br><br>This is a very good psycho-drama/murder mystery. The producers of this movies took all their inspiration from Hitshcock's movie "Psycho" but for this they can be forgiven because the movie is very well done. There is one well known Canadian actor ( Barry Morse ) in the film. The whole story starts when a young woman travels to her grandma's house to help granny convert the house to a bed and breakfast after grandpa has mysteriously disappeared. The house used to be a funeral home so it just seems natural that it would make a good B and B, nothing attracts guest more than a sign out front saying Funeral Home. So anyhow guests start to disappear and a nice young rookie cop starts to investigate. I was particularly pleased when the obnoxious salesman and his slutty girlfriend went over the cliff. There are some red herrings designed to throw you off the trail of the killer , such as the dimwitted handyman (like we really thought it was him ) and the black cat that makes a cameo throughout the film (what was up with that? ) Grandma seems to be a nice old girl, a bit of a Jesus freak though and she is always harping on about what a saint grandpa was although the town folk seem to remember him as a miserable violent drunk. The story unfolds well and you will not lose your attention ,  however if you ever feel the need to ask your grandma " who are you hiding in the basement ? " it might be time to check her meds. The finale of the movie is quite violent with a surprise twist. Good entertainment for the children  and grandma. I am capt. hero and I approve of this review.<br><br><hr>User:capt.hero on Sun, 29 Nov 2009 20:07:08 +0000<br><br>This is a very good psycho-drama/murder mystery.
