7/10
"This delightful bit of gallows humor has its high points."
PopMatters
Bill Gibron
7/10
"This one put a smile on my face in a way that few zombies movie have since they reanimated
Mae West
for
Sextette
."

"Glenn McQuaid's microbudgeted debut is a jauntily gothic period spook story."
Hollywood Reporter
Chris Barsanti
1.5/5
"Who knew you could make graverobbing boring?"

"Many pints of beer and blood flow freely in this old school horror reverie."

"Bits strike out in every which way but are not long, deep or effective, so 'I Sell the Dead' develops neither momentum nor personality."

C-
"If you're old enough to remember the goofy double bills that American International used to churn out in the fifties, you'll have some idea of the quality of this movie. Whether you'll consider that an attractive proposition is another matter."
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
"A fresh, darkly funny blend of crime [graverobbing, to be precise] and supernatural hijinks ... that delivers an offbeat but carefully balanced mix of shocks, homages and uneasy chuckles."

Maitland McDonagh
6/10
"Rather than a serious attempt to resurrect the Gothic horror of the 1960s it is more just a reverential nod or even a send-up."

"[C]annot help but be more miss than hit..."
Flick Filosopher
MaryAnn Johanson
4/5
"
I Sell the Dead
sports playful genre inventiveness, in which fans can delight and even outsiders can enjoy."
Film Threat
Matthew Sorrento
1/4
"The cerebral horror of
Wendigo
and
The Last Winter
is nowhere to be found in Glenn McQuaid's meandering 19th-century supernatural gothic tale."
