Some things never rest in peace… When the easily scared Heather (Lesleh Donaldson) comes to town to help her grandmother turn a decaying funeral home into a charming bed-and-breakfast, strange happenings and unexplained murders begin to threaten their plans. Will Heather be able to work up the courage to investigate the funeral home’s dark and mysterious past? More importantly, will she survive long enough to solve the mystery? Long available only on video, William Fruet’s Funeral Home (also known as Cries in the Night) is an essential yet underseen piece of Canadian horror history. (American Genre Film Archive)
“Fruet once again proves himself a deft director, with natural camera movements and a good eye for composition [in Funeral Home].” – Canuxploitation.com
