Smell-O-Vision has been around since 1960’s Mystery of Scent. However, and maybe luckily, it is rarely used in cinemas since then. But Dead Lover is bringing it back with Stink-O-Vision.
And it might go back into hibernation. Why? Here is the description: “A lonely gravedigger, who stinks of corpses, finally meets her dream man – but their romance is cut short when he tragically drowns at sea. Grief-stricken, the gravedigger goes to morbid lengths to resurrect him through madcap scientific experiments, resulting in grave consequences and unlikely love.”
Thankfully, they are not using a scent machine; instead, moviegoers will be given scratch-and-sniff cards. Although are you going to want to scratch and smell the scent of a dead woman? I don’t know if I do, and I will try most things once.
Dead Lover stinks up select theaters in the UK and Ireland starting on March 20th. You can get tickets here…if you dare.
