IlliniPi Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 I'm doing a project for English and I need to relate Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Fall of the House of Usher." I was wondering if there are any movies with a plot twist involving being buried alive? I already have made some connections with The Others movie (children have strange illnesses). Are there any others that you guys/gals know of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgEnTsMiTh Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 There are a few that i can think of off the top of my head, one being a film called Burried Alive. Also a movie called The Vanishing http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108473/ and the original version that the remake was based off of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aem4162 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 There are a few that i can think of off the top of my head, one being a film called Burried Alive. The first Buried Alive with Tim Matheson is SUCH a COOL movie. This is kinda stretching it, but in Pit and the Pendulum there is a scene at the end where a lady was put into an iron maiden-like thingy and then forgotten as the people who survived the fight left the dungeon - it's been a while so I'm a wee bit fuzzy on the details. There is also an Alfred Hitchcock episode where a man is imprisoned in a room by his wife. In the movie the Mummy (the Hammer version), either Christopher Lee or Peter Cushing (I get them SO confused!) is wrapped up and buried alive in a tomb - that STILL creeps me out. I can think of more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
