demandingzumba The movie: THE GRAVE, has zero redeeming qualities. It would have been best if it had never been made.It actually made me angry that I sat through this piece of junk. One of the disturbing things is the film has decent production values. The actors have been good in other films. It was obviously a pro shoot.But the story was so jejune. And the telling of it so juvenile that it was just aggravating. It was obviously supposed to be funny. The movie wasn't funny. What were these people thinking???~Willy Whitten - \\]//
Nick Dets There is one extremely vague spoiler, if you are really intrigued by its story then don't read on... When I was in the fifth grade, I caught some of Jonas Pete's "The Grave" on MAX and was too frightened to watch any more. Three years later, I ordered it off E-Bay and saw what I missed (which was everything but the first ten minutes). I still found it pretty intriguing and absorbing. The pace never keeps you bored, but the script skims out on the development of characters and some story. This isn't too much of a problem, but when a certain twist happens, you don't know the character's motivation. Craig Sheffer isn't bad as a convict in search of a fortune laying with a corpse in a graveyard. Soon he isn't the only one who wants in on it. The story is structured well, as a mystery character tells his tale to what looks like an inmate. Anthony Michael Hall gives another amusing attempt to break his brat pack image. He wears a RUSH shirt...that helped. I can't exactly say I was convinced seeing him smoke cigarettes and curse, but he is enjoyable enough to watch.
CharltonBoy I'snt it funny how people who use IMDB tend to take notice other User comments especially if most of them are good....well not any more. This film was pure tripe. After reading the reviews i was expecting a good little film with a superb twist but i got 80 minutes of C Movie and an ending that i didnt understand at all. The story is told by someone in prison who we dont get to see until the very end and when we do get to see the person it is supposed to be the twist to the movie. WHO WAS IT?????????????????????? I didnt even recognise the person ! After watching an hour and a half of twaddle and only watching it all because of the so called good twist i was left annoyed at a confusing ending. It just goes to show dont always listen to IMDB user comments...except for mine of course! 3 out of 10.
rhoughton For a non American, the accents are a bit hard to get used to, but once you do, it's really worth watching. A black comedy with a few delightful twists to keep the audience on its' toes, and to give it a good laugh. It reminded me a little of THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY, and I can't help wondering what Hitchcock would have done with this story. Enjoyable ending.
