A group of friends play hide and seek in a graveyard as teens and a prank goes horribly wrong. One of them dies by accident and only one of the friends gets blamed. Five years later, he is released from prison and the group get back together for a reunion. Obviously, someone starts picking them off one by one.
This seemed promising at the beginning, but the movie slowly lost any pace that was being built and the gore began to get more dry as it went on. There's poles through a chest, an axe through the chest, stabbings and slit throats, suffocation and electric shock. There was a little blood involved....unfortunately all but one killing scene were pretty boring.
Props to Eva Derrek....I think this is what kept my eyes open during some of this film. All of the actors in this movie are relatively unknown and have short resumes. That's how these movies should and are supposed to be like. No one really stood out to me besides Leif Lillehaugen who played the stereotypical jerk. He had some good one- liners that made me snicker a few times. All in all they had their good moments and their really bad moments, but isn't that was teen slashers are all about?
Bottom Line: Did the world really need another teen slasher with a generic premise like this? No twist in the world could have made me care by the end of this The Graveyard. The direction, actors, and crew were all fine, but for the love of God give the fans some respect. If you're pleased with some dry kills, a generic slasher premise, and a tiny bit of humor then this is for you. If you need one drop of originality then stay far away. Again, I've seen MUCH worse. That does not make this worth watching though.
