Dead and Buried (1981)

- written January 2009

Summary: Potters Bluff may seem to be a sleepy little town, however, all of a sudden, there are a lot of strange murders where strangers or people passing through are killed by mobs of townspeople. Sheriff Gillis has no clue to what's going on but the town’s undertaker, is only happy to take care of this sudden wave of deaths. Problem is, the closer the Sheriff gets to finding out the truth, the closer he realizes what role his wife and neighbors will play in this heinous scheme.           Overall: The only reason I even caught this film was basically to see Robert Englund’s first movie role. He’s not a big part to the movie, but I will say the film’s ending and secret do make this a must-see film. You’re not gonna guess get it early on, that’s for sure...without spoilers of course. But it’s a fairly interesting film and worth a viewing.           Comparison: Waxwork meets Messiah of Evil
