“Buried Alive” has everything that a great horror movie of the '80s needs; cheesy music, naughty school girls, a Ronald Reagan-mask wearing killer and the great Donald Pleasance. Sadly, this movie suffers from a horrible case of schizophrenia because it can’t decide whether it wants to be a serious thriller or campy slasher movie, while not working as either. One of the biggest travesties is that Pleasance, while enjoyable and creepy, is extremely underused.
