Funeral Home (1980)

Well Above Average B-Horror! 

This one took me by surprise... I wasn't expecting the film to be as good as it is. It is Psycho-ish but not a rip off of Hitchcock's classic but the film does share some similarities with the Psycho films.

A young girl goes to stay with her grandmother because her grandfather came up missing. While he was around, he ran a funeral home from the house  but now that he's gone grandmother needed some money and she decided to keep the house with running a bed and breakfast from it with the help of her granddaughter. Several people have come up missing from the small tourist town and most of the local police don't give it much thought because they are adults and most of the rumors are thought to be idol gossip anyway - but there is one rookie cop that thinks something deeper is going on but is having problems getting the other cops and some of the townspeople to take him seriously. When more people come up missing the investigations go deeper. The granddaughter is becoming frightened from some of the subtle but odd things going on inside grandma's B&B home.

Very good film - I really enjoyed this one!!

8.5/10
