Gruesome Magazine is partnering with the WICKED HORROR TV CHANNEL (https://wickedhorrortv.com/) which now includes video episodes of Decades of Horror 1980s and is available on Roku, AppleTV, Amazon FireTV, AndroidTV, and its online website across all OTT platforms, as well as mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Synopsis: When visitors to the small, friendly, coastal town of Potter’s Bluff are mysteriously killed, Sheriff Gillis investigates and finds that the recently killed are reanimating and coming back to life.

Dead and Buried (1981) is a phenomenal film! There is plenty to discuss regarding the making of this movie as well as the methods used to achieve its look. The Grue-Crew, joined by Gregory Crosby, are in awe of Stan Winston’s effects work. “Awe,” they say! Jack Albertson, in his last role, delivers his portrayal of the big-band-loving, splendidly attired mortician with style and grace. James Farentino’s character, the town sheriff, is put through the wringer as he tries to figure out just WTF is going on in “his” town. As Joseph Heller wrote and Sheriff Gillis learns, “Just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they aren’t after you.” Then, there’s that ending! Don’t get the Grue-Crew wrong. Dead and Buried has its flaws, but the good parts are so good!

Doc Rotten, The Black Saint, Christopher G. Moor, and Thomas Mariani discussed Dead and Buried in a previous episode of Decades of Horror 1980s published July 2016. You can listen to the audio-only podcast here: Dead and Buried — Episode 86 — Decades of Horror 1980s (https://gruesomemagazine.com/2016/07/14/podcast-dead-buried-episode-86-decades-horror-1980s/)
