Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
Iseerphia All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
Jerrie It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
buckikris I rented this, because it did sound interesting. Now I am a classic horror fan, I love those movies like Friday the 13th, Halloween, Black Christmas, E.T.C.. I also realize my video store doesn't carry those great films, only the horror films of today, I have seen some classics, surprise. I also rented it because of Janette Goldstein( Aliens) and Robert Patrick(T2). I do like films about psycho doctor's and that's why I picked it up. I found this film with a lot of plot holes; and of course medical inaccuracy. We start out with friends having a great time in New Orleans, having one hell of a time on Spring Break . They are filming each other and enjoying their time. The movie then cuts and we find they have been in a serious crash, with a tree on a deserted Louisiana road. They find out they ran over this patient who is still alive. An ambulance quickly arrives and takes the patient and them to a hospital for treatment. Little to the kids know that this is not a functioning hospital. They soon find out they walk into a trap, the hospital has been closed for some time, and it's a hide out for a doctor who is conducting experiments on innocent people. He uses their bodies to conduct a new experiment trying to save his wife from Cancer. This is not a movie for those who cringe at the sight of blood and gore. It is your typical new age horror film , lacking on plot, if you like blood and gore- go for it. This movie, could have been at least a 7, if it wasn't for the blood/gore; and some of the ridiculous scenes. I felt they went way overboard on gore especially the ending where she finds her boyfriend. I mean get real, who is going to believe that S**T. I probably made this movie sound good, but it is far from your old school horror films.
fedor8 American film-makers should stick to proper horror films, and leave the senseless sadistic butchery to the French. There is nothing easier than writing endless torture into a script, using it as a cover-up for a thin plot; the trick is to write a real story with unpredictable twists and original turns, because anyone can think of a million ways in which to harm and destroy the human body. Any moron could have written this.Even a shoddy mediocrity such as this needs to make up its mind whether it wants to be a supernatural horror or not. These in-between horror flicks, that are neither supernatural nor reality-based, want to have their cake and eat it too, and because that isn't possible they always turn out to be stupid. There are only four humans running the entire hospital (which is dumb enough in itself), and yet some of them behave like zombies or vampires, being immune to all sorts of assaults, possessing superhuman strength; the usual wishy-washy gobbledygook one has come to expect from the torture-horror crap sub-genre.Plenty of other nonsense here - not to mention every horror cliché in the book: 1) the sudden "help me!" cry from a person leaning on the window of a locked cell/room, 2) "the phone doesn't work, there is no signal here" shtick, a plague in modern horror films, 3) the daft cop who comes to investigate and very predictably gets killed, 4) the bad guys that appear out of nowhere (as if possessing both telepathy and clairvoyance), 5) the almost cartoon-like cat-and-mouse game, she's captured – she's free – she's captured – she's free again – she's re-captured – she frees herself yet again, and many other examples of blatant unoriginality.I don't see how anyone could have failed to foresee from the very start of the movie (without needing the power of clairvoyance) that the (very attractive) brunette was going to be the only survivor of the bloody piffle that is about to transpire. I wish that some of these lame-ass horror writers would for once break out of the generic-formulaic box in which they reside and actually give us unpredictable characters and events. By that I mean moments such as the utterly stereotypical final scene in which Doctor Frankenstein once again resurrects from the dead – without being either a zombie or a vampire. Moronic B-movie fluff.On the positive side, the classic abandoned hospital may be yet another cliché but it's the right setting for a horror film, and both of the movie's young women are good-looking (which I don't take for granted these days).
Jackson Booth-Millard I knew this may have been a straight to DVD release, obviously this was confirmed, especially by the fact that critics have not reviewed it or given it a star rating, but it doesn't matter, I watched it and I am giving it an opinion, so that's fine. Basically in the middle of the night, on their way home from the New Orleans Mardi Gras, five friends: Emily (Jessica Lowndes), her boyfriend Bobby (Ross Kohn), Clare (Ashley Schneider), Dmitriy (Arcady Golubovich) and Jude (Ross McCall) crash their car on the State Route 53 in Louisiana, but they and the man they hit are picked up by an ambulance that takes them to Mercy Hospital. Nurse Marian (Jenette Goldstein) tells them all to be patient as they are called one by one to have their injuries looked at, even if they only look minor, and Bobby is seen to be the worst case after he pulls a piece of glass from his chest. As each character is taken to an examination room, Emily becomes concerned for her boyfriend, and with no one looking decides to investigate for herself, and that is when she meets the very suspicious head of the hospital, Dr. David Benway (Robert Patrick). Soon enough the characters realise they are not in a safe environment, and all fall victim to the evil tortures and experiments by the sick staff members, including taking a drug that creates savage hallucinations, smashing a head in until the brain is caved in, and various surgical implements used as torture devices and weapons. Emily eventually knows she is the last one left, and after trying to escape, calling the police and the officer being killed, and finding out the hospital has been closed down for years, she is almost a victim to the vicious pain herself, but she gets away. The big discovery comes when she finds the wife of Dr. Benway, who he said was recovering from terminal cancer, when in fact she is being kept alive by a machine, pumping some kind of chemical liquid, and also she finds Bobby, with all his organs taken out of his body and connected by above tubes and electrodes to run the equipment. Emily ends the lives (in euthanasia) of both Bobby and the Doctor's wife by turning off the machine, and when Jude shows up one more time he sacrifices himself to save the day, by lighting gas creating an explosion, and in the end Emily gets her moment of revenge with her own torturous way. Also starring Michael Bowen as Travis and Robert LaSardo as Scott. Obviously the acting is as good as you can get in a low budget scary movie, Patrick fits the lead villain role perfectly with his stone faced evil character, and the story is simple enough, with plenty of unexpected and inventive blood and gut scares, accompanied by very uncomfortable torture, all in all a pretty alright horror film. Worth watching!
BakuryuuTyranno Autopsy exists primarily to provide gory scenes. From the opening several people manage to crash into some random guy. An ambulance shows up despite not being called but everyone is in shock. Unsurprisingly, nobody notices. They're in shock. Gory films don't usually interest me but at least this one achieved some shock value.Therefore everyone arrives at the hospital where insane paramedics, doctors and such try to experiment on their newfound victims or murder victims.Naturally the story doesn't matter because it's only setup for gory stuff that comes later. The kids are only there to be victims.However, although I consider "Event Horizon" and "Hostel" unmemorable, and "Hostel 2" groan-inducingly stupid, Autopsy actually managed to shock me during at least once.
