What happens
Oh! Heavenly Dog is a 1980 American fantasy comedy film written by Rod Browning and directed by Joe Camp, their third collaboration in films featuring the dog Benji and stars Chevy Chase as a private investigator who is reincarnated as a dog to solve his own murder. Jane Seymour and Omar Sharif co-star in the film, released by 20th Century-Fox. The screenplay was based loosely on the 1951 film You Never Can Tell starring Dick Powell.
