Strangers of the Evening
Strangers of the Evening ★★ 1932
In its day this dark comedy/mystery caught flak for its gruesomeness. There's been a mixup at the undertaker's, and the wrong body was buried—possibly alive. Good photography and acting make the humor work, intentionally or not. Based on the novel “The Illustrious Corpse,” by Tiffany Thayer. 70m/B VHS . Zasu Pitts, Eugene Pallette, Lucien Littlefield, Tully Marshall, Miriam Seegar, Theodore von Eltz; D: H. Bruce Humberstone.
