I'll Bury You Tomorrow

The first hour of "I'll Bury You Tomorrow" is not unlike a train pulling out of the station, as it starts to gradually gain momentum. Taking time to develop characters, perhaps too much time, the almost two hour movie, would benefit from some tightening. The second half delivers some 70s style blood and gore, a bit too gratuitous perhaps, but not unwatchable. I found the acting to be overall above average, the music and sound effects contribute, and the script is not totally predictable. For a low budget movie, shot on video, I would have to call it a marginal success, something to build upon for what might be an intriguing future. - MERK

Exemplary no budget indie that knows exactly where it is going at all times, even if we do not. Most confident showing by director/ writer and super lead performance by Zoe Daelman make this, despite it's length a characterful, engaging and ultimately relentless ride. Full of sex and gore, although admittedly more of the latter and it all works so well because time has been spent in the early sequences introducing us to this bunch of (likeable) nutters. There is eventually a certain inevitability about proceedings but one is never really sure how far a scene will go or whether we really are going to delve into those little dark corners, like necrophilia or child abuse. I'm astonished (but glad) that this film has been released uncut in the UK where up until a few years ago a film would be banned if it used the word 'chainsaw'!! How times have changed and allowed us such delights as this fine full throttle exercise which whilst it has humourless moments does not clown about all the time. Excellent.

Kudos to Alan Rowe Kelly for creating this rather sinister shocker of murder, madness and depravity! I bury you tomorrow is one of the most twisted films I've seen in awhile about a mysterious young woman who comes to the quiet town of Port Oram to work for local funeral parlor headed by Beech.Dolores Finley, the young woman has peculiar habits like her men rather stiff and some chilling skeletons in her closet and add some grave-robbing and other sources of mayhem and you have recipe for masterpiece of the macabre! I love the memorable characters like dolores who seems quiet unassuming woman who has a suitcase full of dark secrets and who's madness which she is hiding is slowly coming back with a vengeance. Jake Gerald, the sheriff's screw-up brother who works for Beeches and who has a rather deadly job on the side, supplying fresh corpses to a businessman. Nettie Beech, a religious fanatic who sees her dead daughter in Dolores and who will do ANYTHING to keep her. The film stars out slow but not boring as you are introduced to the players in this chilling tale so when they do die (always quite bloody) LIke some of the other reviewers of this film I love the black humor of this movie.Unlike alot of shot-on video movies this one looked more professional in tone and in plot-wise miles ahead of the usual slasher genre with it's idiotic teens and unstoppable killers.What makes this film work is how makers quietly let u enter it's twisted world and you discovers all of it's gruesome secrets. So if you want gory but well-made shocker join Dolores and Beeches and Jake Gerald and REST IN PEACE!

I came aware of this movie by searching on the net for independent horror movies, I found a lot by that way. So I watched the trailer of this movie and I contacted Alan Rowe Kelly to send me a signed copy. After all these years you really can tell when a movie is okay. And this one is. First I thought, damn, two hours watching an independent that will be boring but hey, it never was boring. You are in the movie from scene one and before you know it the movie is over. It was a delight to see that this wasn't a slasher but a dark Gothic story about necrophilia and body snatching. The acting is great by everybody. There is some nudity in it, luckily not gratuitous. This was the debut of Alan Rowe Kelly and it's a good one. Even the effects are nicely done and gory in some ways. Really, if your in a 70's mood, watch this one.

In fact, it's very gory. It is after all, a Horror film. My friends thought it was too gory for them. But I didn't think there was anything unnecessarily graphic about it just for the sake of gore. It's all necessary to the telling of the story. The acting was a little over the top in parts and some of the editing was a little rough. It is, after all, an independent film. But the story is very good, and I like the twist at the end.
