I Bury The Living 1958 DivX-NvadR

I.Bury.The.Living.1958.DivX-NvadR.avi http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051755/ I Bury the Living, concerns Robert Kraft (Richard Boone, a veteran of Westerns), a businessman from a long line of businessmen, who, as chairman of the board for his corporation, has also been inducted to function in a supervisory role for a cemetery. The cemetery office contains two significant things. A groundskeeper of 40 some years who the board is "encouraging" to retire, and a huge map of the cemetery, complete with white pins for pre-purchased, but unoccupied plots and black pins for occupied or soon-to-be-occupied plots. On Kraft's first day at the cemetery, a young couple arrives and purchases plots. Kraft accidentally places black pins instead of white to mark their plots on the map, and a day later, the young couple is dead -- they were victims in an automobile crash. He doesn't notice this until he returns the next day, and it immediately spooks him. On a whim, he places a black pin randomly in the map, and as you might guess, the person who the plot belonged to ends up dead--of natural causes. Already, that would probably seem a bit too much of a further coincidence to justify continuing to experiment with black pins, but absurd as it is -- and this is one of the things that remarkably make I Bury the Living work as a quirky, enjoyable film -- Kraft makes no secret of the mysterious occurrences, going so far as completely filling in the police and a reporter friend, and everyone around him encourages him to keep trying the black pins, because "surely with such-and-such combination" it will be clear to you that these incidents are coincidence. Band masterfully creates suspense out of this situation that could have easily turned into a comedy given that plot decision. A more stereotypical choice might have been to turn Kraft into a madman, abusing his newfound power. Band takes a more interesting road, creating a fine, atmospheric mystery/thriller, complete with a few, choice, subtle but impressive visual effects for 1958. Also notable visually is the cemetery map itself (and the pins) . . . that simple, but interestingly non-symmetrical image (especially the graceful and unusually curving road) has already been burned into my memory, and I suspect it will remain there for some time to come. Still, in retrospect, I Bury the Living is a bit thin and seems more like a made for TV film than a major theatrical release. Marketed as horror -- at least presently -- it really has little to do with that genre in any more than a very superficial aspect --even though horror is hinted at. Also, I Bury the Living is definitely a slower-paced, black and white film focusing mostly on dialogue. Any fans without a taste for that should stay away from I Bury the Living. But fans with a taste for films of the era, "Twilight Zone" fans, and even fans of noirish detective films, as well as those interested in seeing some of the work of Charles Band's father, should not hesitate in giving this film a chance. --------------- SCREENSHOTS --------------- http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33239.jpg http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33240.jpg http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33241.jpg http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33242.jpg http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33243.jpg http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33244.jpg http://www.postimg.com/34000/photo-33245.jpg ------------------------------------------- General Format : AVI Format/Info : Audio Video Interleave File size : 700 MiB Duration : 1h 16mn Overall bit rate : 1 273 Kbps Writing library : VirtualDub-MPEG2 build 24586/release Video Format : MPEG-4 Visual Format settings, BVOP : Yes Format settings, QPel : No Format settings, GMC : No warppoints Format settings, Matrix : Default (H.263) Muxing mode : Packed bitstream Codec ID : DX50 Codec ID/Hint : DivX 5 Duration : 1h 16mn Bit rate : 1 152 Kbps Width : 640 pixels Height : 480 pixels Display aspect ratio : 4:3 Frame rate : 23.976 fps Resolution : 24 bits Colorimetry : 4:2:0 Scan type : Progressive Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.156 Stream size : 633 MiB (90%) Writing library : DivX 6.8.4 Audio Format : AC-3 Format/Info : Audio Coding 3 Codec ID : 2000 Duration : 1h 16mn Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 112 Kbps Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel positions : L R Sampling rate : 48.0 KHz Stream size : 61.6 MiB (9%) Alignment : Aligned on interleaves Interleave, duration : 42 ms (1.00 video frame) Interleave, preload duration : 512 ms Source Region One DVD(NTSC) 720 x 480 29.970 fps 1.33:1 (4:3) B&W AC3 Dolby 2CH Stereo 192 Kb/s 48.0 KHz Encode Note The pixelation on this video is identicle to what is found on the DVD source. I am not sure if it was due to the directors sense of style or inadequate bitrate. Production & Distribution Logo's have been removed due to video size constraints. Black borders also have been removed to improve Bit/Pixel quality. (If your player is having problems displaying the correct aspect/resolution then you need to step up to KMPlayer, the only player superior to VLC & Media Player Classic!)
