Welcome to Potter’s Bluff!
Don’t stop at the diner.
Don’t get gas.
And whatever you do...stay far away from the mortuary.
Art and Erik are digging into Dead & Buried, the sun-bleached seaside nightmare that proves nothing good ever comes from a quiet coastal town. We’re leaving no headstone unturned as we follow Sheriff Dan’s investigation into a truly alarming number of murders, all committed with smiles, pitchforks, and an unsettling love of photography.
With eerie coastal vibes, gnarly practical effects by Stan Winston, and a story cooked up by the writers of Alien, this 1981 oddity is prime Midnight Cinema material.
We’re covering it all, including:
- Jack Albertson as the world’s most overly devoted small-town mortician
- Melody Anderson as Sheriff Dan’s wife, whose hobbies include aggressive dusting, polishing silver, reading up on voodoo, and casually collecting ceremonial daggers.
- Killer mobs who somehow have time for murder and photography.
- WTF twists, turns, and revelations that go places you absolutely do not expect.
- A finale that leaves you questioning literally everyone in town.
From beach to boatyard, we’ll steer you through this weird little village where the locals are friendly, the tourists don’t last long, and the dead never seem to stay that way for long.
And if you make it out of Potter’s Bluff without being impaled by a farm tool, immortalized on film by a smiling local, or politely ushered into the mortuary after sunset, come hang with us for more late-night deep dives into cult classics, forgotten oddities, and all the beautifully unhinged cinema we adore at midnightcinemapod.com
