If you could talk to corpses, what would you say? Stenio works the graveyard shift at a busy morgue and chats with every body that rolls in - until one tells him about his wife's affair. Marcus, Melissa and Grady autopsy a grim flick that starts strong but wanders too far from its compelling premise. Also, would you rather talk to incorporeal ghosts or physical corpses?
