Synopsis
Bill and Jim are rivals for Laura's affection. After Jim proposes and Laura accepts, she worries about Bill's temper. Bill kills Jim and buries his body in the forest and disposes of his car in a sinkhole, then tries to convince Laura that Jim has deserted her, but she refuses to believe it. Bill gets frustrated, admits to murdering Jim and tells Laura that he'll have to kill her too, taking her to a cabin and setting it afire. She screams, awakens Bill's corpse, who then rises from his grave, saves Laura, and takes care of Bill.....once and for all!
