Laid to Rest (2009)

Director: Robert Hall
Writer: Robert Hall
Cast: Bobbi Sue Luther, Kevin Gage, Lena Headey, Sean Whalen, Richard Lynch
A terrifying story of a young girl who wakes up in a casket with a traumatic head injury and no memory of her identity. She quickly realizes she was abducted by a Deranged Serial Murderer and in an isolated rural town she must survive the night and outsmart the technologically inclined killer who is hellbent on finishing what he started.

A woman who's unable to remember her name or how she got there awakens to find herself locked in a coffin in a creepy morgue. Not long after managing to escape the coffin she finds out she's being stalked by a chrome masked killer who enjoys filming his murders on a shoulder mounted camera. Hyper violent 80's feeling stalk and slasher that's got loads of problems #1 it sports a badly muddled cliché riddled plot (that doesn't have a single bit of story on its killer) #2 It's got very problematic character development and #3 it's poorly acted (has to be said mostly from its lead actress Bobbi Sue Luther). All that said even with its obvious flaws it does have enough to keep the casual horror nut happy, as its packed with wickedly over the top gore and is full of jaw dropping wonderfully handled set pieces that are bound to please the gore hounds (shame in someways the FX wasn't used on a tighter plotted movie).
