Product Description

Product Description

In BURIAL GROUND, the carcass-crunching action comes thick and fast as veteran director Andrea Bianchi (STRIP NUDE FOR YOUR KILLER) evokes the sinister flesh-feasting spirit of Lucio Fulci and George Romero. Also known as THE ZOMBIE DEAD and NIGHTS OF TERROR, Bianchi s bout of bloodstained brilliance has a pack of ghoulish predators entrap some ridiculously ill-prepared locals in a moody, malevolent mansion. Suffice to say, a mammoth amount of stomach-turning, meat-munching mayhem ensues. Adding to the onscreen unease, BURIAL GROUND stacks its story with a series of sicko special effects courtesy of the legendary gross-out expert Gino De Rossi (CITY OF THE LIVING DEAD/ THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY/ CANNIBAL FEROX). Only the golden age of Italian horror could have delivered a movie-meal of such outstanding insanity as BURIAL GROUND brought to UK BluRay, uncut and uncensored, by the splatter-sympathisers at 88 Films!

Having seen this a few times on VHS tape and a few more times on DVD, I was interested to witness how its Blu-ray incarnation turned out. Upon originally picking up the Shriek Show Blu the first thing I did was flip out the older DVD from the same company (Shriek Show was a banner of Media Blasters) to compare shot-to-shot. Initially the SS Blu-ray looked a little messy to be honest but comparison with the DVD revealed a better composition first and foremost - previously closer to 1.78:1 it was now framed at 1.66:1. This is likely to be the accurate ratio as many Euro films were shot/screened in this manner around the period and before. The DVD was interlaced whereas the Blu-ray was progressive (at 24fps), reducing jagged edges. Detail and contrast was improved by a small amount in the Blu-ray though grain consequently also increased, quite a bit. Also of note was the fact that the audio (DTS-HD stereo) was a little fuller on the Blu-ray disc, the DVD sounding a tad tinny after going back. So whilst it didn't look great, direct checks between the SS DVD and Blu discs revealed improvements, modest though they may have been. The DVD was rendered almost unwatchable after sitting through the original HD version (though see the point about the running time below).

Media Blasters (i.e. Shriek Show) also exhumed from somewhere a number of outtakes that I'm surprised even exist! For someone who's seen the movie around fifteen times this is quite fascinating material, depicting various further interactions between the characters and even a bit more undead mayhem. This piece runs nearly ten minutes albeit without looped dialogue or sound effects - instead it simply plays against the movie's music track.

I have always enjoyed this zombie film. Another favourtite of mine. I really like the look of the zombies and the music. I have also have to mention the beautiful Mariangela Giordano and Michael the son of Mirangela played by the legendary Peter Bark.

I think Peter plays his character good who has thing about his mother. I like some of the classic lines in this film. like "Mother, this cloth smells of death!" and "What's wrong? I'm your son!". Some of the gore effects of course now look fake and dated, but this was pretty low budget film and i think the effects mostly look good.

Picture quality: 3.5/5

I think it looks good compared to my old Shriek Show DVD. It does have some problems. Like the Chroma noise. It has random little pixels of red, green, blue and so on. It`s not supposed to be there. It`s an error/artifact. I am sure there is some actual film grain also mixed in with the Chroma noise.

Despite, it looks better than my DVD. Some good details and the gore and blood looks better. Also think this film was restored too dark. It does have some minor and not so minor black crush, due to it being too dark. The DVD actually was the right opposite, it was too bright. Seems like they can`t get it just right.

Audio quality: 4/5

The DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 dual Mono mix actually was good. The music and some surprisingly bass from the pistols. I don`t remember anything wrong with it.

Film: 4.5/5
Overall: 4/5

One of the better zombie movies. This has very slow plodding Italian style zombies that are great to look at. Although similar in storyline to Night of the Living Dead this is far superior to any of Romero's zombie films. It has some good gore including beheading, moments of dark humor and even mild incest. It always surprises me when zombies are this slow and plodding, why people decide to run in a building. Oh well, the zombies are fun, at one stage they all pick up weapons and one of them can climb. The Italians have always made the best zombie movies and this is no exception.

OK, let's be honest: no-one is going to really claim that Burial Ground is anything other than a bit of a rubbish film that people of a certain age probably first managed to see in dodgy nth generation VHS dupes, back in the day when such things were often the only way you could see much of '80's Italian horror intact. Consequently, for me at least and I suspect for many, watching it again is like revisiting an old friend that you once had some good times with - even if said friend can be a little annoying.

I genuinely have no idea what young(er) horror fans will make of this film - its pacing is poor, its dialogue is dreadful and even its effects are not particularly well executed. But... But. It has SOMETHING going for it that has made me return to it more than once over the years, and has, even now, persuaded me to shell out for this new 88 Films blu-ray. What that SOMETHING may be, I have absolutely no idea, but, hey, at my age, I take my SOMETHING's where I can!

Shot in 16mm and presented here in its correct 1.66:1 ratio from a new 2k scan of the original camera negative, Burial Ground looks far better than any 30 odd year old, low budget horror film has any right to do. Not perfect, to be sure - it is uncomfortably soft in places - but in comparison with any other version I've seen, up to and including the Shriek Show region 1 DVD of a few years back, it is a genuine revelation. Look, there's some detail to the image! Look, the night-time scenes are not either so bleached as to be unwatchable or so dark as to be incomprehensible!

There is also an unrestored 'Grindhouse' version on the disc which was taken from a 35mm print and was, in all honesty, far closer to what I expected the main version to look like. A so-so theatrical trailer is included as well.
