A good horror film is a bit like obscenity in that it is impossible to describe what makes the horror picture good but you know it when you see it.
Laid To Rest looks and acts extremely well with lots of amusing moments. It has great FX and really nasty kills. It has competent acting, photography, and direction but something doesn't quite work. I think the fault probably lies in the script.
The main things I didn't understand were that the characters always seemed to want to backtrack to places where the killer already terrorized them. The girl wants to go back to the mortuary and the bearded guy wants to go back home to cover a previous victims body! Another is the fact that they have constant access to vehicles (including at one point the killer's!) but nobody suggests they pick a direction and drive!
These things would be of little concern if there was better suspense generated by their encounters with the killer.
I chalk this up as an okay near miss.
