3 stars out of 5 -- [I]t has a genial, engaging feel which still allows for a few proper suspense and horror scenes.
Empire
Rating: 3.5/10 --
To call it a black comedy is probably misleading: It's grey at best, and apart from a few scattered chuckles, it dies as quickly and gracelessly as Burke and Hare's victims.

Not a first-ranked film, but for fans of horror or even just comedy, BURKE AND HARE is will worth seeing.

It's just scene after scene of two obnoxious people killing various other obnoxious people.

[I]t's good to see John Landis after his wilderness years, back on something near form...
Sight and Sound
Rating: 3/5 --
A droll take on one of the most notorious mass-murder cases of the 19th century.

Rating: 1.5/4 --
Rarely has the ratio of quality talent to dismal returns been as high as in "Burke & Hare,'' a macabre British period piece that's nowhere near as funny as it thinks.

Product Description:
Comedy connoisseur John Landis (ANIMAL HOUSE, TRADING PLACES) directs this darkly comic film set in 19th-century Edinburgh. Selling cadavers to medical schools was big business in the 1800s, and Burke and Hare think that they can make their fortunes in the industry. The only problem is that there aren’t any dead bodies to be found.
