Buried Alive is a 2007 horror movie directed by Robert Kurtzman and starring Terence Jay, Leah Rachel and Tobin Bell.
Zane(Jay) is a college student who is going up to an old house owned by his family for the weekend. He
brings along his friend Phil, his cousin Renee(Rachel), his pal Danny(Steve Sandvoss) and two sorority pledges, Julie and Laura. They meet the caretaker of the place, Lester(Bell) who lives close by the house.
He is a weirdo and he was digging in the basement before they came. He was looking for gold which is meant to be buried there. Zane's great grandfather was suspected of killing his wife and burying her alive.
Renee has a necklace with a design on it that Zane gave to her. It belonged to the wife who was supposed to have been buried alive.It was found in the ashes of the great grandfathers house which burned down.
Zane begins seeing an old woman with a axe who looks evil and of course you know that she is the ghost or whatever of the wife who was murdered and she is looking for revenge on the descendants of her husband who killed her..
The rest of the film revolves around the kids getting murdered etc and the old woman showing up looking menacing. It is a mediocre film at best and there wasn't much to it. Tobin Bell was someway entertaining as Lester, but the rest of the cast were crap to put it bluntly. It was not a good film and I found myself looking at how much was left before I gave up on it. I hung in there and watched it all, but it isn't one that I would recommend. Silly and irritating after a while, this one gets a 3/10.
Last time, The Governor had launched an attack on Rick and the others. They survived it, but they know that that will not be the end of it.
This week, Hershel wants to get out of the prison, but the others are not so sure. The Governor has them pinned down. Carl and Hershel think that maybe Rick needs to stand down as leader and let someone else take over. Meanwhile, in Woodury, The Governor is rallying the troops and getting everyone ready for a war. He is arming people and Andrea doesn't like it. Milton, the scientist guy, is told to befriend her and get information from her about where her loyalties really lie. He and Andrea come upon Tyreese and his crew while they are out in the woods capturing a walker so that Andrea can head off to the prison and talk to Rick. Milton takes Tyreese and his group back to Woodbury and Andrea leaves.
She arrives at the prison but Rick and his group are suspicious of her. She wants to make peace with them and she tells them that they should try and come to some agreement with The Governor. Rick doesn't think that this is possible and he wants her to help them get into Woodbury and take them by surprise. She won't help them.Michonne tries to talk to Andrea about The Governor and tells her how dangerous he is. Andrea seems to know this, but she still won't abandon him. The Governor talks to Tyreese and his friends and asks them about the prison etc. He agrees to let them stay as long as they tell him about the layout of the prison.Andrea talks to the others in the group and she realises that maybe The Governor is a bit dodgy. She returns to Woodbury and when he is asleep, Andrea brings out a knife and contemplates killing The Governor but can't do it.
A good episode, everything is gearing up for a face off between the two groups!!Bring it on!!!

Alex and Patricia are in the same tube station when Alex gets stuck on the train, leaving Patricia alone. The weirdo grabs her and brings her down to the tunnels. Alex looks for her but he can't find her. He goes to the cops and tells them that she has gone missing. He decides to go down to the tunnels and look for her. The weirdo tries to rape Patricia but she manages to run off. Alex spots her and chases them. It all comes to a head and Alex attacks the weirdo and seems to have killed him. The cops arrive and everything is exposed. They find Manfred and they are looking through the bodies and the weirdo.
This was an entertaining movie. It is cheap with not much in the way of shocks or scares but it was fine all the same. I will give it a 5/10.
