Bill Bleich - a B-movie genius!
18 April 2000 | by (Los Angeles, CA) – See all my reviews

The Hearse is an almost-perfect specimen of B-movie horror writing. The writer, Bill Bleich, clearly possesses genius for the genre. The characters are superbly drawn, and the notion of history repeating itself is perfectly blended into the story. Definitely check out this smart, well-constructed supernatural thriller!
