That was an excellent one.

Absolutely amazing

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

The Boneyard (1991) * 1/2 (out of 4)A couple cops and a psychic investigate the murder of three children. Their investigation leads them to the coroner's office where they quickly learn that the children are in fact zombies and soon everyone is trapped inside the building with them.THE BONEYARD is your typcial low-budget horror film from the 90s that really doesn't have much originality to it and in fact it really doesn't have too much good about it. You've got a couple former stars thrown into the cast, some decent special effects but there's no question that a lot of the running time doesn't have too much going on.I say that because the first forty-two minutes of the movie has the two detectives and the psychic doing nothing but talking. At first I was wondering if I was watching another movie because for a horror movie there's certainly nothing going on for the longest time. Once the zombie children show up things do pick up a bit and one can't help but wonder why they waited so long. Everyone knows that "something" needs to happen every ten-minutes so making us wait over forty was just a major mistake.The zombie children actually look very good and for the most part the special effects were better than I expected and that's especially true for a couple "large" creatures that show up towards the end. The performances are pretty much what you would expect as they range from decent to poor. Norman Fell and Phyllis Diller are on hand and Ed Nelson was also good in the lead.THE BONEYARD should have and could have been much better but it gets off to such a slow and bad start that the film never fully recovers.

Back in the day, during the VHS rental period, when you could walk down isle after isle, genre after genre, seeing all types of unknown flicks, you'd always happen to walk by one more than the other. Or just notice one a tad more than the others because of the ridiculous covers. The Boneyard happened to be one of these movies for me. And it took me over a decade to finally see the evil, grinning poodle movie. Well, that was my impression anyways.The Boneyard revolves around a psychic woman, a charismatic detective and his wet-behind the ears partner who team up with a morgue crew to stop some ancient supernatural evil......demons. To stop demons.The Boneyard more or less succeeds in a being a pretty good horror flick. With surprisingly good music (which you should notice right away), some over-the-top acting which makes you smile more than roll your eyes, and some very fun make-up effects. Though, The Boneyard does have problems taking itself serious during emotional scenes, and the tension builders take too long and eventually grow tiresome instead of frightening. I also would have appreciated a little more violence/gore. But no biggie it seemed they spent most of their cash on the make-up effects which were definitely cool.Another thing this movie has going for it is the hero. Or should I say, heroine. I'm actually one who is very much annoyed by all the horror flicks these days that are riddled with skinny, gorgeous women who by bullsh!t chance survive the unbelievable. In the Boneyard it's a tad different, even though our main character is a woman, she's a very overweight and average looking woman. It worked, it was unique, funny and it's something I really appreciated seeing.With The Boneyard delivering some fun running around, some cool effects and a nice score it made for a pretty enjoyable 90 minutes. Definitely give it a look if you're looking for a clear-your-mind and enjoy type horror flick. Oh, being a big fan of horror movies would suit you well.

This movie cracked me up,for ten minuites it seems like a "straight" horror,then wham!!!! really really stupid stuff,like green puke and cool gore.I loved phylis diller in this,its her best role ever.The poodle was very cool too.Do not take this movie seriously,this is for fans of "the living dead" type.

~Spoiler~ The Boneyard is one part good, one part very bad. Two cops solicit the help of a 300 pound psychic to help solve a case involving an Oriental mortician and his curse. That's the beginning of the plot. When our cast of characters enter the morgue (aka "the boneyard") the movie picks up. That's when flesh-eating kids come out of the woodwork and madcap mayhem ensues. I enjoyed it, but I wouldn't go all out and recommend it to anyone. There is one super-atmospheric shot in the hallway during the zombie children's first appearance that immediately sent a chill down my spine. While on the subject, the zombie kids are damn creepy and are sporting some great make-up. They're not your run of the mill walking dead. On the other hand, there are a lot of problems with the film too. Some parts are played too serious, while others are overly comedic and unrealistic. I do, however, love that giant poodle. That and the zombiefied Ms. Poopinplatz reminded me very much of Peter Jackson's Dead Alive. Overall, I'd call the flick a miss. It had potential but the acting is not good and the movie never finds an even tone. It doesn't know if it wants to be a fright-fest or a comedy. The Boneyard is worth a rent just to see the zombies and a wigless Phyllis Diller. Don't expect too much beyond that.
