6WH: Oct 30

Burial Ground (1981) directed by Andrea Bianchi
A guy I work with happens to be a huge horror movie fan and recommended I check this one out. Saying that it was 90 minutes of watching papier-mâché heads explode may be a little harsh, but that's what it felt like. Worth it just to see Peter Bark, a really creepy-looking little person who plays the roll of the child in the movie. He has an oedipal relationship with his mother, but, since the actor is really an adult, they can get away with it. Tip: if your son ever comes back from the dead, never offer to breastfeed him. (6/10)
