Fresh and Exciting
A Masterpiece!
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
i couldn't help but think of "Buried Alive" when i watched this one,, i like the part where the husband takes his love interest up to the attic,, she is kinky , and well she don't know he's into torture until of course it's too late,, the husband is drunk, uses drugs, pulls guns.. just not a great guy,, so his best friend the lawyer, and the husband's wife conspire to have the husband killed, the lawyer comes up with a toxin , thru a drug connection of his,, they mix it up in his Japanese take out,, he eats it , and bang instant death,, or so we think........ wrong,, doesn't happen he is just temporarily paralyzed, then when he wakes up , he is already being covered over,, and thrown into the ground, by some med students trying to cover up what they had done to him,, operate on a living guy,, instead of a dead one,, so he goes on a killing spree,, i mean wouldn't you be mad if you were buried alive,, scuse the pun.. excellent movie though.
Living Death is a poorly done movie. The acting is okay, but thats about it.The suspense and horror part of it sucks though, and there isn't much to work with. The script just isn't that great, and it seems like it was thrown together within just a few days. It is basically your average, trashy B-movie. If you like anyone in the cast, sure, rent it, and if you like cheesy horror films then you will like it. With the exception of those things, its a movie you should skip. (my rating)Rated R for strong bloody violence, language and some drug content
The masochist Elizabeth (Kristy Swanson) lives a marriage of convenience with the cynical, sadistic and reckless playboy Victor (Greg Bryk), who is the heir of a huge inheritance including the mansion where they live. She is the lover of Victor's lawyer and best friend Roman (Josh Peace), but she can not divorce Victor since she signed a prenuptial contract that would leave her with only ten thousand dollars. Roman plots with Elizabeth to poison Victor with an experimental drug, but it fails and Victor is completely paralyzed without dying. During his autopsy with three medical students, Victor awakes from his comatose status, and totally deranged, she seeks revenge using his torture chamber."Living Death" has a good beginning and development of the story with black humor, suspense and gore, but one of the worst conclusions I have ever seen. Roman seeking Elizabeth without checking the pistol and accepting to lock his arms and legs in the torture device with an insane guy in command are terrible moments. And the last scene, with Elizabeth parking her car and going to the mansion is simply awful. In the end, this forgettable low-budget movie is a chance to see Kristy Swanson, still attractive but needing to lose some weight, on the video. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): "Renascido do Inferno" ("Reborn from Hell")
I was really hoping this movie was gonna be better then it was.And the sound quality sucked.It was way too quiet and I had to turn the volume up high,and then without warning it got extremely loud and then quiet again. The description sounded good but the movie was too B rated for my taste.And what was with all the stupid gay remarks,this was unnecessary and wasn't funny.The script sucks whoever wrote it.I especially hated the ending.I was angry Elizabeth (the wife) didn't die.I read that Victor was supposed to hatch a wild plot to destroy and get even with the bitch and her lover,well it wasn't the case.I just hated how the cheating wife did away with her husband at the end.She was also in on the plot against him.Kristy Swanson really annoyed me in this movie and I was waiting for her to also die a gruesome death. It started out almost like a comedy then got interesting,then got demented & gory, and finally ended very bad. It did have it's good moments.I liked the quirky drug dealer.And the scenes in the morgue were funny.Graphically the movie was good with good makeup,but the plot was just bad.It could have been so much better.
