I didn't know what to expect when I first started watching this. I had an inkling it would be admist the supernatural, but I didn't expect for it to be full on suspenseful horror/thriller.The film had a good premise and they started to work absolute wonders with it. But I do feel it started to peter out towards the end, unfortunately.The film's setting was the autopsy lab- that's it. I found this emersed you in the story even more, as you're not constantly swapping scenes; keeping your attention on the developing plot rather than the background. With this film it worked very well.The characters were minimal, which is best when it comes to suspeseful films- the less people there are on screen, the more unnerving it is for the viewer. I constantly found myself imaging myself in that situation: alone in a horror film- no thank you!The stories main focus is the autopsy of the Jane Doe (duh), which I found was the best part of the film. As they do the autopsy they find impossible things, and unexplainable things happen in the lab. The constant capture of the Jane Does face- eyes open, staring unblinkingly at the camera- everytime they discovered something, a light flickered, the radio tuned out to another channel, freaked me out! It was a superb way to unsettle the audience and to make them aware that she is no ordinary dead body that the forensic scientists are performing an autopsy on.The last half hour is where it was no longer scary, but rather predictable and anti-climatic. I can't delve into the details as it will spoil the ending for yourself.I do, despite the disappointing ending, recommend this film to anyone who loves a good suspense fuelled film, as the majority of the film was strong. It really puts you on edge. Makes your skin crawl, and plays on your mind.

Impressive and very scary. It is particularly good for the first half when all manner of ideas are being thrown about whilst we try and understand what could have happened. The Jane Doe looks good all the time and is a constant reminder that something very bad has taken place. It is nice that we are asked to switch allegiances during the film but I would have liked to have left the basement once or twice. A little more exposition as to where the girl was found and the circumstances and/or more revelations of possible origins to the clearly sinister happenings. As it is it is pretty claustraphobic and just a tiny bit disappointing the way things turn out after such an horrific first half or so. Mind you, imperfect it may be but you won't be able to tear yourself away, even though you may want to.
