Some archeologist professor goes fucking around in some crypt and gets killed by a herd of robed zombies. This uprising of the undead goes on to target a group of couples who have arrived at the professor's mansion to talk curses or whatever... The rest is, more or less, just gut-munching...
"Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror" is decent. Cheezy as all hell, but very watchable and adequately sleazy and doesn't shy away from the gore all that much. There's decapitations, disembowelments and plenty of dumb looking paper mache zombie skulls getting smashed up. Once again, it's cheap looking, yet pretty entertaining. The action gets started early and once it does, it moves along at a nice clip and doesn't let up. Of course, the highlight is Peter Bark - that weird, mid-20's, pale-faced, Dario Argento-looking dwarf they cast as the twelve year-old boy who starts making out with and fondling his mother halfway through the film. This guy's presence in the film is fucking confusing and bizarre. He looks freakish and barely childlike and even the dubbing for him sounded like a full-grown man's voice...
Overall, "Burial Ground" isn't the best zombie film I've ever seen, but it's worth checking out if you don't mind a bit of schlock.
