Nice throwback to the old 1930's/'40's films

Shot in black and white, but you can also watch a (yeah right) "rare" colorized version! This is a new film which is a throwback to all the great 1930-1940's "old dark house" films which many of us remember. I guess I just thought this would be funnier, but it's really not. ALL of the actors overact like crazy, trying constantly to garner whatever laughs they can. The story of course is supposed to be simple - about a will, frightened heirs, a mysterious killer, etc. But couldn't have they found a better ending to the story? Not very spine-chilling either. Makes me want to stick to the original 'old dark house' films like "The Cat and the Canary" with Bob Hope or "Murder By Invitation" which are terrific films...
