From the liner notes

It was a time of ghouls, ghosts and most ghastly of all, the fine art of grave-robbing. Dominic Monaghan of Lord of the Rings and "Flash Forward" stars as 19th century corpse snatcher Arthur Blake, who pilfered the cemeteries and coffins of England until his capture by police. But just before Blake is to meet the hangman's noose, he will confess to a peculiar priest (Ron Perlman of Hellboy and "Sons of Anarchy") his gruesome tale of vampires, zombies and cadaver-dealing that takes him from the savagery of the criminal underworld to the terrors of the undead. Producer Larry Fessenden (Wendigo, The Last Winter) and Angus Scrimm (Phantasm) co-star in this deliriously grisly and hilarious homage to foggy graveyards, bloody mayhem and the golden age of gothic horror.

Review

Taking cues from old-fashioned Hammer films, adding a dash of Abbott and Costello and topping off with a love of Irish folklore, Glenn McQuaid’s feature film debut is quick-paced entertainment. Arthur Blake (Dominic Monahan of Lost) and Willie Grimes (Larry Fessenden, the director of The Last Winter who has also been tapped by Guillermo del Toro to direct the American version of The Orphanage) are 18th-century grave robbers -— and not the sharpest tools in the shed. Caught by the police and awaiting execution, Blake weaves colorful stories to Father Duffy (Ron Perlman) about his 15 years of terror, mayhem and bumbling adventures in the "resurrection" trade, i.e. unleashing the dead. Brimming with strong production values and beautiful cinematography, writer/director McQuaid has crafted a guaranteed-to-please genre film. The natural, energetic chemistry between Monahan and Fessenden makes this one of the best on-screen pairings ever. With an appearance by horror icon Angus Scrimm (the Phantasm series) there is no doubt that I Sell the Dead will achieve a rabid cult following.
