Ha! I thought the preview was funny but goodness. So Daniel's dad has died and everyone is gathering for the funeral:
his wife Jane who is trying to be helpful
his mother who is a bit of a bitch ("tea can do many things, Jane, but it can't bring back the dead")
his famous novelist of a brother Robert whom everyone expects to give the eulogy even though Daniel is giving it
his cousin Martha and her accidentally drugged (with an interesting combination of hallucinogenics) fiancee Simon
Martha's brother who created the concoction and put it in a Valium bottle and then repeatedly loses the bottle
Justin who thinks Martha should hook up with him again even though she tells him to leave her alone
Howard who is really very concerned about a tiny skin irritation on his wrist and who then suffers the worst fate of the whole movie (really, yick!!! I can't prepare you for it)
Martha's father who would rather her not see Simon much less marry him
Uncle Alfie who is old, angry, demanding, and wheelchair bound
the Reverend who has to leave by 3 but we don't know why
and then there's Peter the midget who had an affair with Daniel's dad and wants a little piece of the inheritance
And then hilarity ensues. Lots of it.
