There is plenty to discuss regarding the making of this movie as well as the methods used to achieve its look. The Grue-Crew, joined by Gregory Crosby, are in awe of Stan Winston\u2019s effects work. \u201cAwe,\u201d they say! Jack Albertson, in his last role, delivers his portrayal of the big-band-loving, splendidly attired mortician with style and grace. James Farentino\u2019s character, the town sheriff, is put through the wringer as he tries to figure out just WTF is going on in \u201chis\u201d town. As Joseph Heller wrote and Sheriff Gillis learns, \u201cJust because you\u2019re paranoid doesn\u2019t mean they aren\u2019t after you.\u201d Then, there\u2019s that ending! Don\u2019t get the Grue-Crew wrong.&amp;nbsp;Dead and Buried&amp;nbsp;has its flaws, but the good parts are so good! Doc Rotten, The Black Saint, Christopher G. Moor, and Thomas Mariani discussed&amp;nbsp;Dead and Buried&amp;nbsp;in a previous episode of Decades of Horror 1980s published July 2016.
