Cadaver Synod

In this new dark comedy by the creators of 638 Ways to Kill Castro, a medieval emperor and his allies take on an absurd task; dig up the long-dead Pope who betrayed them, and put his corpse on trial. But between riots in the Vatican and growing signs that the Pope may not be so dead after all, can they survive the Cadaver Synod?
