The Autopsy of Jane Doe

81/100 In a house containing a slaughtered family, a nude female half buried in the basement is discovered. Then things get really strange when the autopsy begins. A completely original atmospheric piece that totally creeped me out ...which isn't easy to do anymore. The slow but progressive series of unnerving events without any real explanation as to what's happening until practically the end was well done and left me wondering, "What could possibly happen next"? Good stuff!! -- DrNostromo.com

The Autopsy of Jane Doe presents an intriguing concept with eerie visuals and strong atmospheric tension, but its execution lacks depth and emotional impact. While the mystery builds well, inconsistencies in plot details and underdeveloped characters lessen its overall effectiveness. The film still offers a chilling experience, especially for fans of medical horror, though it misses the opportunity to fully realize its supernatural potential.

The eerie and compelling first act promises much more than The Autopsy of Jane Doe ultimately delivers. The Autopsy of Jane Doe starts strong with a mysterious corpse and two coroners who find themselves in greater danger with each clue they uncover to the death of this disturbing body. The first half of the film is fantastic. The tension builds with each passing second. Every new bit of information the characters discover cranks up the anxiety and horror. As the answers become more apparent and more terrifying, so does the fate of the coroners. But once the terror finally begins, the film falls flat. Nothing really happens. Mostly a lot of panic and implied danger, but not a lot is actually shown. What is shown is slightly below average for the typical supernatural horror film. I don’t feel like I wasted my time with this movie, but the excellence of the first half made the mediocrity of the second half much more disappointing.
