Dead and Buried
Directed by Gary Sherman
In Potter's Bluff, unsuspecting visitors are being brutally murdered by groups of locals. But when the sheriff starts to investigate, he uncovers a dark conspiracy involving voodoo, witchcraft and his own wife! Gary Sherman's Bradbury-esque chiller boasts an impressive horror pedigree, including effects by Stan Winston, a script from the writers of ALIEN, and Robert Englund in a supporting role. But the scary standout is surely WILLY WONKA's Jack Albertson, who delivers a wonderfully wicked performance as the creepy town mortician with some long-buried secrets.
Unsuspecting visitors to a small town are being murdered by groups of locals.

A solid slice of folk horror. The movie builds tension well and has some pretty horrifying revelations. Fairly well written as long as you don’t mind a couple of missing bits of information, and don’t pick apart the plot holes too much. The decent acting and characters that feel pretty realistic help hide some of the faults with the plot. Pair this with some gruesome kills and practical effects that (for the most part) are well done, and you’ve got a hidden gem on your hands.
Very good or flick. It held my interest and I was not expecting the ending.
Boring!! Not worth the effort to watch!
