I sell the dead

It was a time of ghouls, and most ghastly of all, the fine art of grave-robbing. Arthur Blake is a 19th century corpse snatcher, 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 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.

  • "Adventure and horror merge in this morbid tale of two 18th century grave robbers who make it their mission to hunt down the undead abominations that refuse to accept their rightful place in the ground. Arrested by towering holy man Father Duffy (Ron Perlman) and threatened with the guillotine for robbing graves with his mentor, Willie Grimes (Larry Fessenden), apprentice ghoul Arthur Blake (Dominic Monaghan) agrees to make a full confession in exchange for a steady flow of whiskey."@en
  • "19th century justice has finally caught up to grave robbers Arthur Blake (Dominic Monaghan of LORD OF THE RINGS, LOST) and Willie Grimes (Larry Fessenden of THE HUNTER, CABIN FEVER 2). With the specter of the guillotine looming over him, young Blake confides in visiting clergyman Father Duffy (Ron Perlman of SONS OF ANARCHY, THE JOB), recounting fifteen years of adventure in the resurrection trade. His tale leads from humble beginnings as a young boy stealing trinkets from corpses, to a partnership with seasoned ghoul Willie Grimes as they hunt creatures unwilling to accept their place in the ground. The colourful and peculiar history of this duo is one filled with adventure, horror, and vicious rivalries that threaten to put all involved in the very graves they're trying to pilfer."@en
