"Husband hunting!"

There are basically two kinds of husband hunting. the romantic life commitment kind, and the "other" kind. "Dead Husbands" features dissatisfied wives doing each other a favor by killing their "insignificant others." Alfred Hitchcock has to be rolling around in his grave, nevertheless, "Dead Husbands" delivers the "black comedy" that the dark subject deserves. John Ritter fans will find their favorite actor on familiar ground as a target husband on the short list of male annoyances scheduled for elimination. With uncomfortable subject matter, the film will be most appreciated by the right audience. If you find "Where's Poppa", "Eating Raoul", "War of the Roses" and the like enjoyable, then "Dead Husbands" is a must see. - MERK

Clever and funny

John Ritter turns in a fine performance (once again) as a self-help author/physician who decides to give up big city living to the horror of his formerly trailer-dwelling wife (Nicolette Sheridan).She decides to be, well, proactive in regard to the situation. The movie was clever and well-plotted, keeping in mind that John Ritter elevates each production he is in by at least three notches.

Pretty good for a low budget tv movie

I saw the movie on tv and I've seen it about five times. The idea is utterly original. Nicolette Sheridan gives a good performance as John Ritter's wife. The climax is exceptional and the operatic sound track is befitting as well. All in all it's pretty good for a low budget tv movie

Not As Good As It Could Have Been

DEAD HUSBANDS is a somewhat silly comedy about a bunch of wives conspiring to bump off each others husbands`. It`s by no means embarrassingly bad like some comedies I could mention but it never fufils its potential . Imagine how good this could have been if we had the Farrelly brothers directing Ben Stiller in the role of Carter Elson .

Oh is Carter based on Jerry Springer ? Just curious because the catch phrase on Dr Elson`s show is " look after each other and keep talking "

Funny funny

I don't understand why I'm unable to find this movie for purchase anywhere!! It's like it was "scrubbed" from existence.

I would love a link to watch/purchase, if anybody has one.
