Hal Hinson:

The hero is Francesco Dellamorte (Rupert Everett), the watchman at the Buffalora Cemetery, who notices that the patrons of his burial ground are a tad rambunctious.

By Dellamorte's calculation, the dead remain in their graves for seven days. Then, for reasons that are never quite made clear, these zombies rise up from their mossy beds ready to rock the house. To dispatch the ghouls back to their side of the river Styx, Dellamorte must split their skulls down the middle. Sometimes he uses a shovel, sometimes a gun. Either way, the result is fairly gruesome.
