Based on the nasty exploits of the true life
body-snatchers Burke and Hare in 19th century
Edinburgh,  Mania features Peter Cushing as
a professor who purchases cadavers for his
medical students.  Little does he know that some
of the grave-robbers are actually murdering
people to sell him the victims' bodies.
