Everything in this article, including the plot summary, was directly copied and pasted from imdb, whose own entry could do with some editing. Bobquest3 04:46, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

  • Have tried to clean it up a bit, changed the plot summary from the IMDb one, but I've never seen or even heard of this movie so feel free to expand or correct please! -- Lochaber 16:20, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
    • I have tried to flesh it out a bit, but it's been a few years since I last saw it and my recollections of the subtler plot aspects may be entirely subjective, so please correct me as necessary. I am concerned that Lochaber's edit changed the derivation of the film's concept from a novel based on a graphic novel to the graphic novel itself. I have no knowledge of either, and can't judge one way or another. Canonblack 21:11, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
      • Tbh I don't know either, various sources say a novel or graphic novel but on IMDb trivia it says that it's not based on Dylan Dog at all but then it's hard to know how reliable IMDb trivia is either. Given the concern I had a further search around and I'm pretty confident that what's there now is true but most online info is in Italian so anyone out there who can speak Italian, you might have better luck verifying it! -- Lochaber 16:16, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
        • I don't speak/read Italian, so as long as you're confident, Lochaber, that's good enough for me. If we're wrong, hopefully someone with more comprehensive knowledge will come along and correct us! Canonblack 02:09, 22 October 2005 (UTC)
          • Unfortunately, I don't have any sources to verify this, but the movie was based on a short story written by the author of the Dylan Dog comics, and the protagonist happened to be played by the inspiration for Dylan Dog, at least in terms of appearance (Rupert Everett). I'll try and find a source with which to back this up.
          • I've heard/seen this as well on an old website called Crypt of Horror I believe. It was actually based on a STORY in one of the Dylan Dog comics, where the main character traveled to a cemetary where a nonchalant groundskeeper killed the dead that kept rising from the grave.

[edit] US title

Isn't the US title of this movie actually Cemetary Man, not Cemetery Man? I realize the actual word is spelled cemetery, but that's why I remember the name, it stuck out because of the typo.

No, the US title is, was, and always has been Cemetery Man. See, for example, Anchor Bay Entertainment's listing for the upcoming US DVD. Perhaps you are thinking of Stephen King's intentionally misspelled Pet Sematary? Chris Stangl 19:00, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
