Synopsis: Dewey Frye is dead, and the rest of his family is left to pick up the pieces – that is if they don’t kill each other first. A family funeral becomes comically unforgettable as long-buried secrets, childhood rivalries, and Southern charm collide. Delivering lots of laughs, this Southern comedy proves funerals can bring families together, and maybe, tear them hilariously apart. Plenty of cackles and casseroles.
