The Curse of the Living Corpse

“More terrifying than Frankenstein...More deadly than Dracula...The creature that undrapes the passions of the living!”

The old man in the Sinclair house is terrified of being buried alive, because a rare condition sometimes leaves him looking dead when he is not. When he dies, his relatives, among them Philip (Roy Scheider) and Abigail (Helen Warren), learn that his will sets out strict orders they must follow before anyone sees a dollar of the inheritance. Del Tenney, working on a small budget, makes his debut feature a family dinner table where everyone is waiting to be paid.
