About this list
Before anatomy schools had a legal supply of cadavers, resurrection men did a steady trade in fresh bodies, and horror never forgot it. Scientists, thieves and lovers keep picking up the shovel. This is a list for films where digging up the dead is central to the story, or brings the horror down on whoever does it.
