Notes
  • Literal title translation: The funeral masters.
  • Linda Saito remarks that "Misumi's 52nd film portrays a satirical view of today's heartless money-oriented society. Despite the effort to make it into a comedy, the story is too foolish. The ending is quite tragic, however, giving an ironical twist to the story."
