**SPOILERS** Somewhat inferior sequel to the original 1990 made for TV movie "Buried Alive" that has it's star Clint Goodman, Tim Matherson, come back to town to pay his respects to the late Sheriff Sam Eberly. Sheriff Sam is the only person who knows Clint's secret, that he in fact is alive, and took it to the grave with him.
It just happens that Sheriff Sam's niece Laua Riskin, Ally Sheedy, is having trouble with her cheating husband Randy, Stephen Caffrey, in that the no good heel wants her out of the way an out of both his and, literally, her life. Randy has been having an affair with Roxanne, Tracey Needham, and the two are planning to off her the same way that Clint was; with the poison extract from the Japanese blow fish.
Sick and tired of living in the same hick town all his life and wanting to pursue adventure on the high seas, by getting himself a yacht, Randy sees his ticket to ride in that Laura is to get some $250,000.00 from the her late uncle's, Sheriff Sam, estate. It turns out that Clint, looking like he was just exhumed, is on to both Randy & Roxanne and tries in vain to get Laura, who at first doesn't recognize him, out of harms way but like in his case, who was also poisoned, to no avail.
With a nervous Randy spiking her drink, a glass of wine, with the blow fish extract or poison Laura goes into convulsions and literately drops dead right in front of Randy and about a dozen witnesses at a local restaurant. Just before Laura lost consciousness she realized, by finding the vile where the poison was in, that Randy had in fact murdered her! Or did he!
The film "Bruied Alive II" follows the very same storyline as it's predecessor "Buried Alive" with Laura coming back to life after she was buried. Not getting embalmed since the embalming machine at the local funeral home conked out Laura's vital functions were not effected as she was later able to get herself resurrected. It's then that an outraged Laura plans to exact vengeance on both her husband Randy and his lover Roxanne who both planned but, fortunately for Laura, didn't go through with her murder; Not that they didn't get an "A" for effort in trying.
Coming back from the dead Laura plans to get both Randy and Roxanne alone on Randy's yacht and then, by both sealing and sinking it, have them pay for their crimes. The problem is how can she being weak and almost unable to walk, by being entombed and buried in a air-tight copper coffin for some three days, be able to pull all this off? ****SPOILER ALERT****It there that Clint comes into the picture, and to Laura's rescue, but at the cost, being that Clint is suffering from an acute heart ailment, of his life.
Nowhere as good as "Buried Alive" but still worth watching with both Stephen Caffrey & Tracey Needham, as Randy & Roxanne, so badly overacting in their roles that for a time you think your watching a laugh a minute comedy not a tense and nail biting murder/suspense drama.
