Sony Picture’s Death At A Funeral Invites You To Make Your Own Eulogy Dan Koelsch, March 24, 2010March 24, 2010 Director Neil LaBute has helmed some pretty strange (Wicker Man) and awful (Lakeview Terrace) films, but next month’s Death at a Funeral seems to be the most ill-conceived of them all.

Here’s one I made myself: Watch. What do you think of the site and unusual game? Let us know in the comments below. Death at a Funeral opens nationwide on April 16th.
