 Although technically a silent film — having intertitles and no synchronized dialogue — it was the inaugural Hal Roach film released with a synchronized music and sounds effects track for theatres wired for sound.The Victor sound discs were thought lost until a set surfaced in the 1990s and was reunited with the film elements.The concept of men trolling through a cemetery with a dead body was reworked by The Three Stooges in their 1945 film "Three Pests in a Mess".
