The premise

A woman inherits a fortune, causing her husband and his lover to plot her demise by poisoning her. The only trouble is it only places her in a deep coma that resembles death. When an accident occurs in the embalmer's office he doesn't complete the embalming process, causing her to be buried alive. Awakening from the grave, she claws her way out and seeks revenge against the two who caused her supposed demise

Horror Vault's take

When a woman stands between her husband and a substantial inheritance, she becomes the target of a cold-blooded scheme that goes further than anyone bargained for. A terrifying brush with premature burial sets the stage for a reckoning neither conspirator saw coming. This late-90s TV thriller leans into the primal dread of waking up six feet under, then pivots into something far more dangerous for those who thought they'd gotten away with it. Justice, in this story, has dirty fingernails.
