SummarySome say that the field of pathology is a window to God. Pathologists see the perversion and corruption of the flesh by all means unnatural...by violence...by toxin...by madness...to determine the cause of death. As a result they are the experts in all signs of foul play, and the best in the field can uncover all means of killing, even those that... Read More

Even squeamish viewers are apt to be captivated by the tight, credible scripting; these 20-somethings talk and behave like today's irony-clad young sophisticates. And whatever your opinion of the subject matter, you can't fault the filmmaking.

A nasty, naughty little film, a delightfully disagreeable horror-thriller.

One of the best films I have ever watched. The plot is amazing and very surprising. Not a mainstream crap

The name is a misnomer first of all. It should have been "forensics" or "forensic pathology". The main reason is that "Pathology" is the laboratory work at the hospital site whose main function is diagnostic procedures on tissues and body fluids of mainly from living patients i.e. "surgical pathology" or as in UK "histopathology"for organs and tissues and "cytopathology" for body **** movie has only fouced on "forensci pathology" whish is an autopsy work......Besides this there is a great gap inthe movie omitting microscopic analysis of the organs and tissues. The movie gives the wrong impression of gross examination of autopsy findings is adequate for final diagnosis. This has been rejected by the 19th century pathologists saying that final pathologic diagnosis can not exist without a microscopic analysis (pionered by Professor Rudolph Virchow and colleagues of 19th century) as opposed to the medieval approach of the old centuries. The movie gives a false impression of medical pathology practice in this regard......

When a movie opens with the diner scene from "When Harry Met Sally" as performed by cadavers, and later proceeds to sex scenes involving scalpels and needles, the actual plot is inconsequential. Fans of hard-R exploitation will love this; everyone else will likely be appalled. Screw 'em.

Like its characters, the picture is too clever for its own good, allowing the meticulously researched scenario to be undone by implausible behavior and gaping plot holes.

It takes a certain genius to make butchered corpses, sociopathic lunacy and meth-fueled debauchery nerve-scrapingly dull, and German director Marc Schoelermann and screenwriters Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor (Crank) possess it.

Alyssa Milano is a delight, but her ten to thirteen minutes of screen-time mark her as more of a distraction than substantiation.

A particularly nasty slice of medical-themed horror, Marc Scholermann's film is the sort of thriller in which the tenderest scene depicts an autopsy.

Extremely awkward. Plot development is empty and the acting is nothing special, which is the overall feeling of this movie...nothing special. Just another gruesome, gory, and violent movie trying to mask itself with a mildly interesting plot. By the end of the movie you find yourself saying "Why am I watching this?"
