10 Unintentionally Hilarious Horror Movies
5. Burial Ground: Night of Terror
There are plenty of so-bad-they-are-good movies out there. Within the distinctions of these projects is an Italian horror film by the name Burial Ground: Night of Terror, which stands as an incredibly underrated hilariously terrible title.
The plot centres on an archaeology professor who invites a selection of people to a party in order to celebrate his recent uncovering of an ancient crypt. This discovery ends up releasing a horde of zombies onto the party-goers and terror ensues.
Except it is of course not terrifying, as the zombie effects are laughably atrocious and the acting is absurd. It's made even worse by the fact that the film is originally in Italian, so you may end up watching a dubbed version with some dreadful synching and voice acting.
The film has so many ridiculous set-ups, and one of the strangest has to be the character of Michael - played by Pietro Barzocchini. He is the son of one of the party-goers and is supposed to be mentally challenged. The performance feels so campy, and his appearance is laughable, and it's only made worse by the insertion of an incest storyline that culminates in a violent breastfeeding.
Yes, you read that right.
