6/10
Slow but effective thriller
22 April 2024
"I Bury the Living" is an incredibly slow-paced thriller, its 76 minutes seem endless, but it always keeps you attentive, though: I guess it works for its strange but original premise, in which the administrator of a burial ground discovers that he can cause the death of the plots' owners when he changes the status of the parcels from empty to occupied. The film also features effective lead actors (especially Richard Boone and Howard Smith) who enliven the events. While watching it I thought that maybe it had an influence on George A. Romero, who later filmed "Night of the Living Dead." Enjoy.
