Cemetery Man

ComedyHorror105 min

In a small Italian cemetery, the dead refuse to stay buried, and groundskeeper Francesco Dellamorte has made a grim routine of putting them down again when they return hungry for flesh. Rupert Everett is the weary man at the center of it, moving through a world where graveyard duty is already strange enough before love complicates it. When Francesco falls for an enigmatic young widow (Anna Falchi) after her husband’s funeral, his work and his private life begin to tangle in increasingly morbid ways. Comedy, horror, and romance meet in a cemetery where death is never the end of the problem.
