Laid to Rest. 2009.

A woman wakes up in a casket and has no memory of who she is and why she was there, only to find out she was abducted by a serial killer and tries to survive the night.

This is one of this films that seemed to slip through the cracks for me on whether it be good or not even though amazon have been recommending, right from the start we thrown into the main character "The Girl" who meets Richard Lynch (in a small role) meeting his maker and then becomes a night of survival meeting a few characters who meet a grizzly ending.

Writer/director Robert Hall seemed to rejuvenate the slasher genre with proper gore effects that makes CGI obsolete, some bits are not really cringe worthy but can make you think "oh that's gonna hurt". It can be a bit like a cat and mouse game, you think someone is safe but then gives out a curve ball. It's not perfect as there is a few noticeable goofs but they can be ignored. Enjoyable. Onto to watch number 2.
