Buried Alive (1989)
5/10
I expected more.....

Warning: Spoilers
A woman goes to teach at the Ravenscroft Institute , finding that some secrets better stay buried....

This movie has a pretty good cast which includes Donal Pleasence, Robert Vaughn, Nia Long , and even John Carradine. There are even early appearances by Arnold Vosloo (The Mummy),and William Butler ( NOTLD'90). Donald Pleasence is a very versatile actor, but is wasted in this movie. Carradine appears for only 10-15 seconds. The lead actress Karen Witter doesn't do anything at all , except for screaming.

The plot is OK, but i expected more gore. Though, there is one good death scene, the movie lacks the intence, and is very boring at times. There's enough suspense, but its not compensated with enough action.

I wasn't satisfied. Maybe someone will. 5/10
