Review of Dead & Buried

This film is alright in my opinion. Towards the beginning of the film, when the first attack at the beach happened, it just seemed odd to me. There was no reasoning behind this attach. Although the motive was made clear behind it later on in the film, it still seemed unnatural. All of a sudden there was a group of ordinary citizens going on a murder spree. This isn't a plot hole, more like a very undeveloped part of the story inside the script. They should have worked on this better. And the climax, could have been much better. Farentino's character knew destroying the hearts of the corpses would destroy the corpse itself, so IMHO the climax should have shown this and then the startling revelation. But alas, this did not happen.

James Farentino did a great job showcasing the emotional ordeal he was going through I wanted to add. Sherman's direction was pretty good. Nice use of wide shots and blocking within them.

All in all, I would recommend this to horror enthusiasts and Twilight Zone buffs.
