There is something seriously creepy about watching people get buried alive, maybe it’s a underlying fear of mine that hasn’t come to the surface.

It was mildly comical in Kill Bill Volume 2 when Uma Thurman got buried, mainly because she dug her way to the surface within minutes, but in the 2 part finale of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation’s season 5, directed by Quentin Tarantino (hence the Kill Bill reference) it’s much more real and scary.

Nick Stokes is the unlucky CSI who gets buried in a perspex box with nothing but a gun and some glowsticks. George Eads who plays him does a very good job of portraying someone in that situation, a little too well really. When he first realises the severity of his predicament he starts to scream… a scream that chills me to the bone.

Grave Danger parts I and II are probably the best episodes of CSI ever made, and probably the scariest too. Very tough watching, even for a diehard CSI fan such as myself.
