\"\"Dead & Buried<\/em><\/strong> is a fun little horror-mystery with a plot that would\u2019ve fit in with an episode of Tales from the Crypt<\/em>. The gore effects from Stan Winston were well done for its time and Jack Albertson was the standout amongst the cast.<\/p>\n

THE MOVIE \u2014 3\u00be\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>Something very strange is happening in the quiet coastal village of Potters Bluff, where tourists and transients are warmly welcomed… then brutally murdered. But even more shocking is when these slain strangers suddenly reappear as normal, friendly citizens around town. Now the local sheriff (JAMES FARENTINO) and an eccentric mortician (JACK ALBERTSON) must uncover the horrific secret of a community where some terrifying traditions are alive and well… and no one is every really dead and bured.<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: Dead & Buried<\/em><\/strong> is one of those horror movies that could\u2019ve come right out of an episode of Tales from the Crypt<\/em>. It\u2019s not an especially intricate plot and characters, save for maybe Jack Albertson\u2019s Dr. William Dobbs, were pretty thin in development. That being said, it\u2019s a fun little independent horror film, something akin to The Stepford Wives<\/em>, just with the undead instead of robots. It\u2019s nothing especially memorable but well worth checking out, if nothing more than some well done makeup effects by the master himself, Stan Winston, not to mention a pre-Nightmare on Elm Street<\/em> Robert Englund.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
