Product Description Movie DVD
Amazon.com TV stars Milo Ventimiglia (Heroes) and Alyssa Milano (Charmed) make a rare jump to the big screen in this gruesome thriller about unorthodox fun and games in a morgue. Ventimiglia is a med-school grad who discovers a perverse sleuthing game at his new hospital job--one member of a gaggle of fellow residents is selected to carry out a murder of an "undesirable," and the others must determine the cause of death. Since Ventimiglia's own bedside manner is only slightly north of amoral, he falls in quickly with the homicidal crew, only to discover that it's less easy to extricate one's self from the competition. Filmed with an appropriately clinical eye by German director Marc Schoelermann, Pathology suffers from a riotously bad script loaded with clunky dialogue and an unpleasant premise which is mined solely for the opportunity to show scene after scene of autopsies and post-mortem surgery. Gorehounds may groove on its blithe ugliness; all others will wonder why they should be asked to care about the fates of such one-dimensional and mean-spirited people. --Paul Gaita

loved it. December 29, 2009 Ginger Dean i didnt expect the random drug induced sex scenes but i loved the movie. i was on the edge of my seat for most of the movie and i thought that way the students handled the bodies is a whole other level of creepy.
this movies didnt get alot of attention and it should have. its not for everyone. i would totally recommend this movie to anyone.
Pathology March 13, 2009 Michell Boyer (Philly, PA) I still don't have the movie. You guys show you sent it, but I don't have it. I would love to review the movie if I had it. Can someone contact me via email and let me know when it is coming?
Not Bad With A Nice Twist February 23, 2009 Fred Rayworth (Las Vegas, NV United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My daughter rented this and I'd never heard of it. At first I thought it was just another slasher movie, but since she paid the bucks, I decided to give it a shot. It turned out a lot better than I thought.
I know a lot of guys were going to watch this just to see Alyssa Milano naked, but if my memory serves me right, she refuses to do nude scenes, so what you are likely seeing is a body double. For me, I could care less about the nude scenes. I must admit though, they were used effectively (not just with MS Milano) to jump up the creep factor.
There is a lot of gore in this movie, and in a way it was over the top, but at the same time, it was expected for a bunch of psychos (uh, I'm sorry, doctors) working in an autopsy suite. I was never quite sure why they were there, if they were supposed to become pathologists, or regular doctors doing an internship in the autopsy suite. Maybe I missed it, but I never heard why they were there, though it really didn't matter as it was just the premise for the film anyway.
It reminded me, in a way, of Fight Club. Once you're in, you can't get out, and you can't talk about it.
There is a predictably high body count, and plenty of gross-out scenes that would make any slasher aficionado proud. However, what I liked was the twist at the end. I thought it was a surprise, and well done.
Overall, not a bad movie. Recommended for fans of gore.
Pathology DVD February 13, 2009 Les Zemansky The video is above average, but not as good as I would have liked it to be.
However, the delivery of the product to me was excellent and I am very well satisfied with the service.
flatliners meets hannibal rising February 4, 2009 astrorev (Sacramento, CA USA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Went into this one with tempered expectations, but was still let down. The implausibility of the story was remarkable; I came off my chair laughing when the professor expressed his concern to the main character regarding his extra curricular activities (drug usage, etc.) while totally ignoring the outrageous and amoral behavior of his other students in the pathology lab. Copious amounts of sex, nudity, drug usage, gore, and mayhem attempt to carry this story over the unbelievable circumstances, but to no avail. As one med student said to the other, "be careful not to cut into the poop tube." Unfortunately it's too late for us; this movie stinks all over.
