Buried Alive (1990 TV Movie)
5/10
Don't believe the hype
5 February 2023
Grade A cast with a C- script. I mean, it makes no sense whatsoever. The nicest guy in the world gets buried alive and becomes a Hellraiser's Pinhead-level torturer and Property-Brothers-meets-Leonardo da Vinci-on-Cocaine master builder. Could that have happened? I guess, but it would be nice if the filmmakers took us by the hand and showed us the transformation from upstanding husband to abject vengeful monster. Because yeah, they did him nasty, but he did it right back. Even worse, actually, since he managed to kill them.

Five out of ten because for a TV movie, it's above average. Production is great, story is meh. Lands right in the middle with 5.

You don't just have to suspend disbelief with this one. You have to make like a magician and make it completely disappear.

Meow, meow, frog, rawr.
