Product Description

The digital series originally created for FearNet as a movie! It begins with a terrifying darkness, the sound of staccato breathing, spurts of weeping, and the horrifying screech of fingernails against metal. Someone is buried alive. Rick, a handsome, 20 year-old, is just one of the victims trapped in a coffin. Illuminated in the darkness by the flame of a cigarette lighter, the details of the scene come into focus as a night-vision camera, embedded in the corner of the coffin, captures his every move. On his left, an ominous warning: SAVE YOUR BREATH. Aiding the group above ground are two sleuths, siblings Melanie and Travis, each with a secret stake tied to the victims' fates. The duo will piece together information gleaned from found footage and online diaries hidden on the Web, in the ultimate race against time to unravel the mystery and discover the locations of the buried coffins before time runs out.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not missing much, December 2, 2007

By	N. Durham "Big Evil" (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Buried Alive (DVD)

Buried Alive revolves around a group of college kids who soon learn that the demonic spirit of a woman murdered in their vacation house is out for blood, and guess who's in her axe-wielding sights? Robert Kurtzman, best known as partner to gore effects gurus Greg Nicotero and Howard Berger (hence, KNB Effects) and the original scripter for From Dusk Till Dawn, directs Buried Alive, and sadly it comes off as another derivative, uninspired slasher flick that provides little in the way of scares or suspense. The acting is atrocious and the story is cliche and oh so predictable (for the most part), but Buried Alive does have a few good moments of note, including some nifty gore effects and a small role from Saw's Tobin "Jigsaw" Bell, who himself up's the creep factor just by appearing on film. All in all, Buried Alive may be worth a look for die hard slasher fans, but those that don't see it won't be missing much at all either.

3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat decent horror movie, October 29, 2007

By	MattW "Matt" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Buried Alive (DVD)

This film certainly isn't anything to write home about. It's fairly derivative and has an almost shockingly anticlimactic finale. Having said that, there are some decent scares, some gorarrific death scenes, nice production values, and a few unexpected twists. The film would have benefited from more interesting actors, writing, and direction to distinguish it as it certainly doesn't stand out from the pack. However, I'm being slightly generous by awarding it three stars, in part due to some well executed special effects.

3.0 out of 5 stars It is what it is..., November 12, 2007

By	T. Eastridge "Tom" (Dayton, OH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Buried Alive (DVD)

With the element of surprise being paramount in the success of scaring you in a horror film, this one does not succeed. It's fairly predictable. I kept reading how great the special effects were going to be in this film, but I was disappointed in that aspect the most. The film does have some unique moments and Tobin Bell gets more screen time than I was first led to believe. It did not exceed nor fall behind my expectations. In my opinion, the actors did a respectable job with a weak script. There wasn't a lot to work with.
