In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

This movie has not left my mind in over 20 years. It shows love , compassion, regret, anger, and horror! I can not believe how sick the human race can be. And that little boy??? You will not be disappointed in this movie. Well worth the watch! And the ending is shocking and superb!

CAROLINA SKELETONS is a TV movie exploring the same subject matter as MISSISSIPPI BURNING and IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT. It stars Louis Gossett Jr. as a former soldier looking into the mystery surrounding a historical crime for which his brother was executed as a boy. While investigating he discovers a small town hot with corruption and prejudice, and soon finds himself in very real danger. While this production suffers from the typical TV movie trappings in terms of lack of budget and tame delivery of the subject matter, Gossett Jr. is good value as the lead and the likes of Bruce Dern, Melissa Leo, Clifton James, and Richard Denkins can be relied upon to deliver solid support.

This film I saw on NBC back in 1993. I was horrified watching it then, and it gives me even more chills now knowing this really happened. LG gives a stellar performance as the brother seeking justice for his brother's murder. More films like these should be made to expose the judicial system for what it is and perhaps we won't have to learn these lessons now. The interesting turn of events is the fact that his brother went into the military for the country who showed no remorse for his brother. This is not for the faint of heart nor should children watch it (spoiler alert). This film is about society's ills and the laws that support them. This film would have done well in theaters. However by it being aired on television, the concept is toned down and is not as grotesque as it could have been. It was done well enough for the viewer to get the gist. Though it seemed slow at times, it is a mirror of how justice actually moves in cases of exoneration.

1944 - A 14-year old black boy, named Linus Bragg, is executed on the electric chair in Carolina, USA. He's accused of murder and rape on two 10-year old white girls. Thirty odd years later his younger brother returns to unravel the truth. It turns out to be a combination of racism, prejudice and money. Linus had been falsely accused, he was innocent. The movie shows some horrifying scenes. It really gets to you. The movie is based on a book by David Stout, and the book is reality-based. If you have the opportunity to see this movie, then go see it.
