The Poster For BURIED Is Cool, Even If The Film's Idea Isn't Altogether New!!

Merrick here...
FirstShowing has the teaser poster debut for BURIED, from director Rodrigo Cortés and writer Chris Sparling. In the film, Ryan Reynolds plays a guy who finds himself trapped in a coffin...in the ground...his only communication being a cell phone with a dwindling battery. A scary-ass notion to be sure, although this same conceit was deployed on the under-appreciated television series G-VS-E back in 1999 - in an episode also called "Buried." Later, "Grave Danger" - a similarly themed, Quentin Tarantino directed episode of CSI - aired in 2005. So, I'm not sure what to say about this film in terms of idea, although I do think it's a pretty cool poster and imagine there could (theoretically) still be a good story to weave around this concept. Click Ryan to see the same image in uber-giganto High Resolution!!
