12 Trashiest Films Ever Made
10. Burial Ground (1980)
Confined to a scenic Italian villa, where a group of stock characters have gone on vacation, Burial Ground is the first zombie picture to combine incest, zombies with battering rams and a midget in a toupee, unsuccessfully portraying a child.
Resembling a missing link between Edgar Allan Poe and Dario Argento, Michael (Peter Bark) is by far the creepiest presence onscreen, if not the creepiest character ever committed to film. When hes not interrupting mom and pops sack-time with open-mouthed astonishment, hes poking around in basements and finding something that smells of death.
He gets his big moment when, opening his mothers blouse, he declares his true feelings for her. Chalk such moments down to Andrea Bianchi, who when not making knock-offs such as this is the director of the Italian classics Exciting Love Girls, Fleshy Doll and Strip Nude For Your Killer.
