    A pretty decent thriller if all a tad too obvious, not too mention just slightly bizarre?! Very gory, gruesome in places baring in mind the title. Ok for a watch once but far from great.

    Interesting idea which takes itself far too seriously. Characters are absolute aresholes, even without the whole killing thing they've got going on. The script makes a few feeble attempts at deep and philosophical conversations, but just comes off as a tad crap. A lot happens wit...( read more)h little explanation and the ending turns into some kind of weird pissing contest. It's very well made, with flawless special effects creating gruesome but not graphic autopsy scenes. Certainly a fine watch with good performances.

    Really sick movie...I thought it was going to be more of a horror movie, but this was just a dark, gross film. Definitely not one I'd watch again.

    Loved the idea of the movie and alyssa milano!!!!!
  • December 3, 2008
    A sick, twisted, disturbingly original and addictive edge of your seat thriller. A nerve-wrecking, suspenseful, smart and bone-chilling adreniline rush fuelled with gore and steamy sexuality. Milo Ventilimiglia is sensational.

    Definitely not for the squeamish... Like me. Ugh... The End.

    PURE IRRATIONAL 90 MINUTES. but i loved it! specially the ending, it was awesome!!

    More gore than horror.
  • October 4, 2009
    Plotline manages to be much better than most horror/thrillers. But still not managing much brilliance.
    No relatable characters, making you not feel too much of anything when they die. Relies a bit too much on the gore sometimes to shock, instead of the plot's actual merit.
    An i...( read more)nteresting turnaround at the end, but not quite enough time spent on it.
    Still, it's more enthralling than most other entries in the same genre, which definitely makes it one to watch if you enjoy the genre,

    If it's not of the topic, i won't be watching it.

    Nothing much surprising, just a very normal film with explicit gore and bloody violence.

Pete Hammond, Boxoffice Magazine

Existing somewhere in a world between Flatliners, Saw and Last Tango in Paris, this oversexed, over the top, underwritten medical horror flick won't come anywhere near the success of those films. full review

    I found the movie to be somewhat entertaining, worth the money to rent it... maybe not but regardless it kept me occupied for about 90 min. I don't think i would recommend the movie to anyone but if you like disgusting games there is a site i found for pathology that is very cool as well as gory.

    the site is...

    What a load of rubbish and terrible character development. So what do they do to make up for it...yes you are right they put sex scenes and tits in the film.
    If I wanna watch a film just for sex scenes I will rent an x-rated film which do better character devolopment than this trash.

  • From what horror film is this quote from? "That sheet, on which she embroided fantails once, spread it so as to cover her face. If her horny feet portrude, they come to show how cold she is, and dumb. Let the lamp afix its beam. The only emperor, is the emperor of ice cream."   Answer »
