Billy Jump is an '80s rock star. Alexander Keaton is a corporate lackey with a cheating fiancée. Vida is an evil mother in-law who torments Jean, her daughter in-law, incessantly. But Billy Jump is electrocuted by his guitar. Alexander has his head chopped off by a samurai. And Vida is mysteriously poisoned by tapioca pudding. Then the dead randomly start coming back to life. They don't eat brains, but they do want their old lives back. We follow the trials and tribulations of these three as they try to pick up where they left off, to mixed results. Billy Jump is trying to get his band back together for a big comeback, only to find that his old band members aren't quite the same people they used to be. Alexander wants his job back, but has been replaced by a computer, and his fiancée has taken his house and is shacking up with another woman. Exhausted, he is taken in by a goth girl who has a thing for dead guys, and a vendetta against her father, Alex's former boss. Vida is determined to get rid of Jean once and for all, but finds that Jean is no longer the weak-willed pushover she once was. The rivalry between the two turns into an all out war once Roger, Vida's son, leaves for a business trip. The three stories are inter-cut together until we reach three action-packed pulse-pounding climaxes, which tie up loose ends with some surprising revelations.

Laurel & Hardy: Our Relations

Comedy

This polished, fast-moving, complex story with solid production values was an artistic, box office and critical success. Though it was a meaningless concession to salve his bouts of temperament, this was the first of two films nominally credited as “A Stan Laurel Production. ” In fact, it was just business, and business as usual. During principal photography, Roach wrote his son, then away at military school, of making “a very funny Laurel & Hardy picture. Had the Laurels over for dinner…borrowed his fishing boat last weekend and went to Coronado for yellowtail. ” The lavish shooting required 48 days. The cast included Alan Hale and Sidney Toler, soon to become the next “Charlie Chan” at Fox, and effervescent Betty Healy, former wife of Ted Healy of Three Stooges fame. This was her only movie; she played Mrs. Laurel, and remained his lifelong friend, as so many surviving letters now attest. Also featuring an intricate and lively musical score by Roy Shield, which the studio used as “stock tunes” to score concurrent Charley Chase and Our Gang comedies, as well as the reissues of five Laurel & Hardy shorts. Directed by Harry Lachman, a visual stylist and neighbor of Roach who was brought in to help the studio graduate from the custard pie era. With Daphne Pollard, James Finlayson, Iris Adrian, and Lona Andre, who said in 1990 she had never seen the film! Looking at a still photo, she remembered, “This one (Hardy) was always doing something that made the other one (Laurel) laugh; and I mean he would roar!”
