Reviews for Premature Burial
Ray Milland emotes, by turns, dour gloominess or manic eyeball-spinning through a weak script that bears too little sense and too many similarities to its predecessors, Usher and Pendulum.
Like many of its immediate ilk, this one’s stagy and outdated and kinda silly – in other words, good stuff.
