Unearthing the Secrets of the Past: Remains Found By Workers at Georgetown Home
(washingtonpost.com)
The masonry workers carefully removed part of the old rowhouse's brick foundation and began excavating the dirt on the other side. First they came across some wooden planks. Then they found what looked like human remains -- a jaw, most teeth still intact, several joints, some ribs... She knew that a human skull had been excavated in her neighbor's yard nearly half a century earlier and that the park across the street stood on the site of one of the city's oldest and most prestigious burial grounds...

I saw this film. In the next scene, the chairs are found mysteriously stacked on the kitchen table and the TV starts disgorging the walking dead.
