Buried Alive

(1990)

This guy's wife wants him out of the picture, but he doesn't have a clue so it's a real kick in the sack when he finds himself crawling across the kitchen floor with a stomach full of poison while she yells "Damn you, die! Die!" (I always pictured the last episode of Home Improvement ending like this.) The wife fucked up though, because she used pufferfish poison, and anybody who's ever seen The Serpent and the Rainbow knows that pufferfish poison doesn't really kill you, it just puts you into a coma until it's time to harvest the sugarcane and/or fight Brother Voodoo. That means the dude's not really dead, and due to like these amazing circumstances (and the fact that they only buried him two feet deep) he manages to get out of his coffin. Now, most people would go to the cops, but I guess this guy read too many Tales from the Crypt comics or something because instead he decides to build a huge maze in his house and use it to torture his wife and her boyfriend. It's not a super gory flick and there's no nudity, but there are a couple of cool parts - like when the guy dips his shredded-up hands in a whole sink full of hydrogen peroxide - and of course it's always nice to see an utter cooze get what's coming to her. It would've been better if we saw her tits first though.
