You should be familiar with the analogy of something having layers like an onion. While it makes sense, I've never spent time peeling an onion for anything. I don't think that I know anyone that has actually been cooking and thought "I need to peel this onion to use it." With this film though, I finally had a real understanding of what it means to have layers skinned away to reveal the new.
White Coffin takes us on an insane adventure. Virginia's daughter is kidnapped (after she has already kind of kidnapped her own daughter) by some sort of strange cult. While in chase with the initial kidnapper our heroine is run off the road by an ambulance and killed in a car crash. Her body is resurrected from her coffin and thus begins a twisted game of riddles, a white coffin, and multiple women attempting to save their children from this murder cult.
When I read the description of this film I wasn't too into it. The moment Virginia is resurrected then I was ready for whatever. This movie had so much going on, but it paced itself well and each reveal became more intense until the finale. Then the ending became a series of madness upon madness. I loved this film. It's one of those movies that I will pull out when I want to have rad discussions with friends after it's done.
I give White Coffin 4 cult members out of 5:
