MORTUARY ACADEMY (1988). Two Brothers (one Christopher Atkins, looking iike a young Mark Hammill) inherit a Funeral Parlor/Teaching Institute, but the current owners aren't going to give it up without a fight. Very obviously inspired by POLICE ACADEMY and like PA, a few good laughs with lots of tedium.
Mary Woronov (who I like in just about anything-she's very sexy, as well) leads the cast, but most of laughs for Me came from her normal partner, Paul Bartel,, playing his usual stuffed shirt. But this Stuffed Shirt has a hidden side that gets very close to bad taste and although the final line was used before to great effect in another film (Not telling You which one), it's works here pretty well. **
