I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

1. This film is epic. Autopsy starts off as the usual stereotypical film, college students get drunk, party etc. They are driving, car crashes into something. Ambulance shows up, takes them to an abandoned hospital... Most of the film is just the survivors running around trying to escape the mad 'evil' doctor and the 70's looking nurse. There is a bit of humour when the police show up.. Police get shot - no hero there. Then we get to an amazing twist. *****spoiler alert*****.The evil doctor is killing and using the students body organs, spinal fluid etc to save his wife - awh cute! Then there's a little extra at the end. This film, is probably our favourite film yet - and we have watched a lot. The twist, ending and whole plot was immense. The fact that most of the actors are unknown is even better, as you get to know them better. If you haven't watch this, but are thinking about it.... What are you waiting for?? Get it! :)

This isn't a masterpiece of horror of course, but for what it was, still very entertaining. Of course, when it comes to trash the only trash in genre that I can see is horror films, just because there's always something to be enjoyed. But as it is the film wasn't as trashy as I expected, and was actually damn effective. The gory scenes are pretty well-done and some of them truly horrifying. There are some effective jump scares as well, mostly due to the editing and music. There is a scene in the end that is truly a sight to behold, one involving the lead and her boyfriend that made it all even more worth it. As a huge horror fan, I do recommend this.

Five kids in Lousina run over someone and crash into a tree. They end up in a hospital from the Twilight Zone. The nurse is unhelpful, the two orderlies look and act like felons, the Dr. doesn't seem quite right, and it's lit like a dance club.The lovely Jessica Lowndes plays Emily a formed med school student who didn't make it past first year. Her boyfriend was seen by the Dr first but he never returns. She goes looking for him. When she meets the Dr, he does a lumbar puncture on her for no good reason. Another kid is a junkie who is offered all sorts of drugs by one of the orderlies. Another girl ends up with the back of her head smashed in. When Emily finds her she realizes something is clearly not right.What follows is your usual endless running around colorful hallways. Run-ins with the crazy nurse, the crazy doctor, and the violent orderlies. At some point she calls a cop, he arrives, he doesn't quite believe her story and ends up dead.Eventually we find out what is going on, the Dr. is keeping is half-dead wife alive using the innards and fluids of anyone who ends up at the hospital- and there are quite a few victims. Emily at some point walks into a room where one of the orderlies, played delightfully as always by LaSardo, is removing finger prints from hacked up hands and the room is filled with other body parts.Emily will eventually find her boyfriend and it's pretty gory. The ending is also very good.Autopsy is charmingly enthusiastic about gore and violence. But the realism of those two is ruined by the cartoonish characters of the villains and in general about the other-dimensionality of the hospital, which completely goes against the realism of the gore. Had this movie presented a more realistic hospital with villains that are crazy but not ridiculously so, it could have been a success. Jessica Lowndes also manages to carry the movie in contrast to some acting veterans who struggle. There's no mistaking this movie for anything other than the work of a first-time director. It is endearing how much of a fan of horror he is, but he has a hard time directing people. Of course he also could have used some help with the script. Some nudity would also have helped. Autopsy is a decent effort that should have been better. It has lots of great gore going for it, as well as the work of Lowndes and LaSardo. Even the basic story is pretty good but the director could have made more of it.

Adam Gierasch isn't unknown for me, I just have seen his latest effort Fertile Ground and liked it and in fact I have seen so many flicks directed by him, Night Of The Demons, Mortuary,...And some of them I loved some I hated because they didn't deliver on the horror part. But luckily this one does deliver.The story itself is as usual, some friends having an accident and are being picked up roughly by an ambulance. They are taken to an abandoned hospital with a sick doctor. From there on it goes badly wrong for the friends. The acting is okay and believable. But the main lead Jessica Lowndes did already appear in a Masters Of Horror (Dance Of The Dead) and did another horror, The Haunting of Molly Hartley (2008) but for the moment she's in the 90210 series. And didn't I recognise Robert Patrick from Terminator 2? Well, they all know their job and did well.Although some stupid things going on that are unbelievable like the scene were Emily is trying to catch a cell phone without being seen is ridiculous. And there are some other parts like that (the cutting of an arm) but it's the amount of red stuff and even some gory scene's that makes it watchable. But you keep watching until the end to know what is going to happen, surely one to autopsy.Gore 3/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5
