BURIED

Some movies are meant to be watched in the dark; So that you can feel the desperation, the fear and the frustration of the protagonist. 'Buried' is a typical watch-in-the-dark movie, perfect for the times when you are just unable to go to sleep and the ambiance is quite and dark.

It is the story of a civilian contractor employed truck driver in Iraq. Ambushed one day while on duty, he is buried in a coffin with nothing more than a zippo and a mobile phone. The cost of release: $5 million. Based on actual incidents in Iraq where abducted Americans are forced to pay up or are left to die. The frustrating part is that the people who are being contacted for help are worried more about the news being kept buried(like the guy), rather than helping the fellow.

Final Verdict: The whole movie is shot in a box, from the perspective of the protagonist. It is different and scary at times. If you are game for some pretty depressing emotions, go for it!!
