Oliver the Eighth Trailers

Barbershop owners Stan and Ollie answer an ad in the newspaper from a wealthy widow looking for a husband. Ollie only mails in his response and is invited to the widow's mansion. Stan discovers his unmailed letter and insists on tagging along. At the mansion, the widow's creepy butler informs them that the woman is crazy. She was once jilted by an Oliver and now her hobby is marrying Olivers and then slitting their throats. Now the boys must figure out how to escape.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
