The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016) begins when the body of a woman is found unearthed in the basement of a house where a double murder took place. The body is taken to a mortuary, run by Tommy Tilden (Brian Cox) and his son Austin (Emile Hirsch). They have been tasked to figure out the cause of death. Jane Doe’s body is layered with mysteries and as the father and son coroner team processes the body, the mysteries reveal themselves until Tommy and Austin figure out exactly who Jane Doe is and must suffer the consequences of knowing her identity.
This movie was a pleasant surprise. I didn’t know what to expect, but once the autopsy began, I was hooked. Every time the coroners discovered one of Jane’s many, many injuries, it corresponded to a weird supernatural event in the real world of the autopsy room. By the time Tommy cracks open Jane’s skull to examine her brain, all hell breaks loose.
I love this movie, obviously. Definitely worth checking out.
Saw the reviews on this too. What she did in the end was messed up. The old man made a deal with her to save his son. She should have honored it.
ReplyDeleteBut he asked his son to kill him, which reversed the curse...so everything will start all over again. Sis was pissed off.
