    Horror Not to Miss List Commentary:
    This German film centers around the fictional alliance of medical professionals who believe in a credo antithetical to the Hippocratic Oath, that is their goal is to advance science without regard for the patient instead of vowing to preserve t...( read more)he patient's life above all other duties. This features some of the better effects I've seen in a long time, as the med students of the anti-Hippocratic order use their classmates to make groundbreaking educational installations of human anatomy. Set within the med school, the central heroine gets keen to this practice, and must unravel what is going on before she ends up as the next feature in her professors' exhibit. The plot doesn't get more interesting beyond that, but the gore is amazing and the anatomic installations are beautiful.

    Ok ... but not marvellous. Interesting the way they kill people ... not just some slasher flick either. But nothing special.

    Didn't do enough although it's better than most for this genre.

    Franka Potente plays a medical student who uncovers a secret society behind some gruesome murders in Heidelberg Med. I like the work they did on the corpses, they were very realistic. The acting looked pretty ok, the dubbing just ruined it.

    Judging from various reviews, the English dubbing must be pretty bad, huh? I felt thoroughly entertained, but it is a pretty generic horror flick. I tend to like those, so 3 stars for providing ample entertainment.
