Karen: Jocelyn...
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: I hope you and your bridegroom, my dead husband, will be very happy together in this medieval mausoleum.
Karen: I can understand your bitterness. If only you'd given Arnold more love and affection.
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: You gave him enough "affection" for both of us.
Karen: All he wanted was...
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: I know what he wanted. What is your going rate?
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: [gasps] Lady Dwellyn! You are mistaken. Arnold and I never, never discussed money.
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: What did he do? Just leave it on the mantel each night?
Karen: Ours was a deep and honest love. In fact, I love Arnold so much, I refuse to let even death separate us.
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: Rubbish! You won't get away with it, you know. It's quite illegal to marry a corpse.
Karen: Mr Whitehead thinks he can prove our marriage valid. He intends to establish a precedent, using the analogy of women who marry soldiers at the front by proxy; men who might already have died in battle before the wedding ceremony was performed.
Lady Jocelyn Dwellyn: The Courts will award me the entire estate. I am the rightful heir. Arnold's one and only wife. And widow. Happy honeymoon, you bitch!

Nasty!

This is a pretty black little film, and I actually really like it. It makes you wonder how they got the money to put it together and got all the celebrities to be in it. Roddy McDowell and Stella Stevens were fresh off of "Poseidon Adventure." Was this a good career move? Who cares? They were both actors who were willing to work, even if it meant doing dumb movies.

Stella Stevens plays a woman carrying out the wishes of her lover, that she marry him after he is dead. That's how the movie STARTS, and it keeps going from there! What follows is a combination of campy 70's sitcom humor, a "And Then There Were None"-style "whodunnit" mystery and some grisly, inventive death scenes.

The pace is brisk as it moves to a surprise ending that is both satisfying and pretty disturbing for a "comedy." I respect a film that is willing to pretend to be all light and funny, then end so hatefully! The theme of this film is that everyone is money-grubbing, selfish and weak. Nasty, black-hearted, TRULY WEIRD (the opening song just kills me) and I love it! And Stella Stevens is gorgeous and amazing, as always.
