My Review

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Based on the popular FEARnet digital series, "Buried Alive" follows a group of friends who find themselves trapped inside coffins. As they unravel the clues, they discover that someone close to them is doing this. Meanwhile, above ground, siblings Meg and Travis try to unravel the mystery and save their friends before its too late.

Even though it was cheaply done, I must say I was mildly amused by this flick. Sure, it's nothing short of an hour long, but it kept my interest. I only wish they would've made it longer so I could've had a feel for the characters and the overall story. Other than the shortness of the film, there wasn't a lot wrong with it.
