Resarch Into Similar Products: Misfits: Buried in a coffin scene

Also in Misfits (E4) there is a scene in which Nathan (Robert Sheehan) is lying in a coffin that has been buried under the ground, having just come back from the dead - Nathan is invincible due to his power he received in a supernatural storm- where he is shown from the side in a medium close up:
                             
Watch this clip of the scene talked about then come back and see what I will be taking from it as inspiration.

I will use something similar to this in my music video for 'Lost' in the first part of the song when the character is revealed to be inside some kind of box under the ground. I will construct a prop similar to that of the coffin used in Misfits, but mine will look much less aesthetically pleasing as the coffin does, not having the silk lining or pillow. The i will use will have a much more cramped feel.

A film that has a similar scene in it is Kill Bill Volume 2 (Quentin Tarantino). In this scene the woman trapped in a coffin buried underground escapes and digs her way up to the surface. Here is the clip:



This is a little more how I will have my box that the character is in, much less glamorous and has a much greater feeling of being cramped and claustrophobic.
