In this madcap comedy, drama critic Mortimer Brewster hopes to marry the lovely Elaine Harper...but will she fit in with his quirky, some would say "homicidal" family? His spinster aunts, Abby and Martha, are known for their many acts of kindness and charity, taking lonely old men into their boarding home. They kill their guests with kindness, humor and...their homemade elderberry wine, laced with arsenic, strychnine and "just a pinch" of cyanide!
