The Living Coffin (Grito de la muerte, El) (1958)
My Rating
Movie Info
The Living Coffin is a Mexican filmization of that old Edgar Allan Poe standby The Premature Burial. A seriously ill woman is terrified that she'll be buried while in a comatose state. To avoid this contingency, she has an alarm installed inside her coffin (indicating that someone involved with this film had seen the 1931 Paramount chiller Murder by the Clock). It comes to pass that the woman is indeed declared dead, planted six feet under, and.....hoo hoo hah hah HAAAAH! The legendary B-flick

Our Hero who I am told is a ex-bullfighter that was pretty good, is trying to track down the crying lady. Nothing really scary but this movie will keep you interested through out the whole film. Its in great color. Has a littlle bit of everything, Pimp dressed cowboys, monsters, secret passages, a trick horse giving Trigger and Roy Rogers compitition. The year 1959 and for that fact and the effort put in by the entire crew, 4 stars.
